## What is Hush PDF Merge, Edit, Sign?

Hush PDF is a complete PDF workstation that runs entirely on your iPhone and iPad. It has 58 tools to read, edit, sign, merge, split, scan, translate, compress and protect PDFs, and none of them send a byte to a server. You don't upload anything, you don't need an account and there is no subscription. Every tool works offline.

READ AND EDIT
• Fast reader with continuous scroll or paging, zoom, full screen and search
• Editor: highlight, underline, notes, text, drawing, shapes, pictures, stamps and signatures
• Edit text: change the words already in a PDF, written in the document's own font
• Form builder: add text fields, checkboxes and signature boxes, or fill and flatten existing forms
• Measure distances and areas on plans and drawings, to scale
• Read as text, sepia and night modes, read aloud, and Versions, which keeps every save

ORGANIZE PAGES
• Merge PDFs, photos and scans into one file, in the order you choose
• Split: pick pages, or cut a file per page, every N pages, by bookmark or under a size
• Organize: reorder, duplicate, remove, rotate or insert pages in a thumbnail grid
• Crop, auto-crop, page numbers, and 2-up, 4-up and booklet layouts

FINISH AND PROTECT
• Unlock: remove a password you know, or lift print and copy restrictions
• Protect with a password, or restrict printing, copying and editing
• Sign with a drawn, typed or image signature, and verify digital signatures
• Redact: draw boxes, or search a name to black out every occurrence
• Privacy check: find names, hidden text, tracking links and old versions before you share
• Watermarks, stamps, headers and footers with Bates numbering, and a bookmarks editor
• Sanitize, repair, list attachments, and inspect or clear metadata

SCAN AND CONVERT
• Scan with your camera: edge detection, perspective correction, multiple pages and ID cards
• On-device OCR reads scans as text or writes a searchable layer into the file
• Compress while keeping text sharp, or aim for 1, 5, 10 or 25 MB
• Word, Excel and PowerPoint to PDF, and PDF to Word, Excel or PowerPoint
• PDF/A for long-term archiving
• Web pages, HTML, Markdown and text to PDF; PDF to images; images and photos to PDF

TEXT AND AI, ON DEVICE
• Translate a PDF into another language (iOS 26 or later)
• Summarize a document and ask it questions
• Extract data: pull totals, dates and vendors from receipts and invoices

WORK FASTER
• Every result offers "Continue in another tool"
• Recipes save a chain of tools to run again on any file, and Batch handles many PDFs at once
• Library: folders, tags, stars, search and smart filing, with optional iCloud sync to iPad and Mac
• Compare two PDFs side by side or line by line
• Siri Shortcuts, Spotlight, a home-screen widget and a share-sheet action

PRIVACY BY DESIGN
PDF processing uses Apple's PDFKit, and scanning, OCR and AI run on device. Nothing is uploaded or logged. The few things that go online always say so first: Web to PDF loads the address you type, Translate downloads a language pack once, and iCloud sync uses your own iCloud Drive. The app does not crack or guess passwords, so a PDF locked with a password you don't know stays locked.

BUILT FOR IPHONE AND IPAD
• System, Light or Dark theme
• 12 languages: English, Arabic, French, Spanish, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Turkish, Urdu, Indonesian and Chinese, with right-to-left Arabic and Urdu
• App lock with Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode
• Free, with no ads
