## What is File Monster?

All photo and PDF tools are free. They work offline on your device, even in airplane mode. Your originals stay unchanged.

Ads appear only at the bottom. There are no forced full-screen ads. Advertising and store purchases use the internet. Google’s ad services may collect your IP address, approximate location, ad interactions and diagnostic information. Photo and PDF contents, names, file locations, sizes and thumbnails are never sent to ads.

Remove Ads is a one-time purchase. The planned Japan price is ¥260; the purchase screen shows the current store price. If you previously paid for the app, you can remove ads at no extra cost. Restore purchases with the same store account.

Choose photos or PDFs, pick your settings, then run. Multiple files use the same settings. Hold a result image to preview it before saving.

With images only, use Advanced settings to change file size, dimensions, and format. JPEG turns transparent areas white; PNG keeps them transparent. Quality and file size may change.

Supported PDFs keep their text and links. Use Save files to save them. Image quality inside a PDF may change. Results above the size goal can also be saved. Some PDFs, including signed or encrypted files, cannot be processed.

Working files are stored temporarily on your device and may not be removed immediately. Save results you want to keep to Photos or Files.

Retrieving cloud files or syncing saved files may cause your operating system to use the internet. Shared files are passed to the app you choose.
