Markdown Studio Pro is a calm place to write Markdown. It is built for people who want a beautiful writing surface without giving up portable files. What you save is real Markdown — headings, lists, tables, code, and images — that opens in any editor, forever. WRITE YOUR WAY • Source editor with a formatting toolbar and slash inserts • Live preview beside your words, or on its own • Split view on iPad and Mac so draft and result stay in conversation • Command palette and Quick Open to move without hunting through menus STAY IN THE FILE • Open and save .md, .markdown, .mdown, and .mkd • Folder workspaces and recents on every Apple device • Autosave when a document already has a path • Images embed in the file so a note stays self-contained LOOKS LIKE YOU MEAN IT • Shared themes from paper-warm days to ink-quiet nights • Typography you can actually live in — size, family, line numbers • Export to PDF, HTML, or plain text, and print with the system sheet PRIVATE BY DESIGN Markdown Studio Pro does not require an account. It does not include analytics, ads, or tracking. Documents live where you put them: on device, in the Files app, or in a folder you choose on Mac. Designed for iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

We all scroll too much. We can't stop. Once I realized that, I made FavPick. --- It solves a very specific problem: You find something good while scrolling — but where do you save it? Favorites folder full? Notes app too messy? FavPick brings links from many platforms — Rednote, Bilibili, Weibo, Zhihu, Douyin, YouTube, Instagram, Twitter/X, Reddit, LinkedIn, TikTok, and Threads .etc — into a single timeline. You can save images, too. --- But collecting too much is the same as collecting nothing. So there's a limit: up to 5 saves per day (adjustable from 1 to 5 in Settings). 5 is enough to make you think — out of the hundred things you scrolled past today, which ones do you actually like? Which ones deserve a second look tomorrow? --- After you archive, your timeline fills up with your own picks. Three months, six months, a year from now — scroll back, and that's your taste charted over time. Not a tool. A catalog of everything you liked this year. --- After archiving, you can choose to sync your saves to the system Calendar. Each save becomes a calendar event — 15 minutes, visible but never in the way. (Pro feature) --- Export to Word documents. Archived saves — images and text together — packed into a single .doc file that opens directly in Word. You can also import from an exported file to move your records to a new device. --- Daily reminder: set a time, and the App will nudge you to save. Archive reminder: if you haven't archived by evening, it will remind you again. --- — About Premium — Core capture, parsing, organizing, and browsing are free. iCloud sync and other advanced features require a subscription, with monthly and one-time purchase options available. Price and billing cycle are clearly shown before purchase, and you can cancel anytime in system Settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Markdown Studio Pro at none against FavPicks's 2. Markdown Studio Pro also leads on device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
