I'm not sure how anyone can say they use the Notes app on their iPhone 
as a word processor. How does he
* change the font of his text,
* insert headings at different levels,
* include bulletted or numbered lists,
* insert tables, a table of contents, diagrams, footnotes and so on?

I agree you can use the Notes app for longer documents, and you can use 
it as a text editor, but it isn't what I or most people would call a 
word processor. Check out the following for a discussion on the 
difference between a word processor and a text editor
