Quick and easy
Advantages: More options for making pages legible if they’re converted to PDFs (I use Goodreader). Much better for people with impaired vision. Most of the garbage present on many websites is stripped out, and what remains can no longer track you, collect data on your reading behavior, etc. Sensible pagination (unlike the native iOS converter, which often gives you one enormously long page). Tip to other users: if a page doesn’t convert from within Safari, copy the URL and then select Clipboard in this app. The page should then be converted without any problem Glitches (there are, however, workarounds for all of them): Occasionally bails during conversion. But when you relaunch the file will be there. Goodreader flags some of the files this app sends to it as in need of repair. No big deal, however, because the repair, whatever it is, always works. It’s awkward converting pages for which a password is required (e.g. by a unversity proxy for access to paywalled journals). You can’t paste the password in; the only option I can see is to use Copied or something like that in split screen and enter the password manually.

Reliable - Have Used for Years
I have had this app for years and it has been reliable. My primary use has been to convert web pages and I like that it is so easy to do without having to open the app. If I then wish to open the document in a different app, I can do that from within the app. It can be frustrating that some web pages that have special formatting may not convert what you want to see, but I don't think that that's this app's fault but is inherent in the web page design. I also like that this has been around a while and looks to stay that way. Too many apps fail after a few years from lack of developer support. Hope they continue to enhance and improve it.

PDF Converter
I’ve been an avid user of this app for the last 6 years, utilizing it daily on average 10 to 20 times at a setting. As such, there are rarely any times that I have been disappointed in the outcome. It handles even the hardest and most impractical web pages you can throw at it, and you get good, clean, sophisticated outcome deserving of the real site, if it was designed correctly to begin with! I didn’t really say that!!! Just remember to try PDF Converter on the run, at home, at the office, even at your girlfriends apartment, since it is quick, accurate, and will leave you please at the outcome! Highly recommended.
