## What is PDF Angel?

PDF Angel turns your iPhone into a document scanner and a PDF toolbox in one app. Scan paper to PDF with automatic edge detection, then sign, split, merge, compress, protect and extract text with OCR. Everything runs on your device: nothing is uploaded, so your documents stay private.

SCAN
• Point the camera at a receipt, contract, ID card, note, book page or whiteboard. The page is found automatically and the perspective is corrected for a clean, flat scan.
• Scan several pages in a row and save them as one PDF.
• Choose a look while scanning: color, grayscale or black & white.
• Import photos from your library and turn them into a PDF.

DOCUMENTS
• All your scans in one list with thumbnails, page count and size.
• Search by name, rename, share, delete.
• Open any PDF in the built-in viewer and zoom with a pinch.
• Save a copy of any PDF to the Files app, on your iPhone or in your cloud storage.
• Open PDFs from Mail, Safari or other apps in PDF Angel and add them to your Documents.

PDF TOOLS
• Images to PDF: turn photos into a single PDF file.
• Merge PDF: combine several PDFs into one.
• Split PDF: pick the pages you want and save them as a new PDF, or save every page as its own file.
• Rotate pages.
• Compress PDF: shrink the file size for easy sharing.
• Password protect: encrypt a PDF, or remove a password you know.
• Extract text (OCR): recognize the text in a PDF or image, then copy or share it.
• Sign PDF: draw your signature with your finger, then drag and pinch to place it on any page. Your signature is kept for next time.

PRIVACY
• Scanning, OCR and every PDF tool run entirely on your iPhone. Your documents are never uploaded.
• No account and no sign-up.

Available in 31 languages.

## Version history (last 4 releases)

### 1.3.0 — 2026-10-26

New in 1.3.0:
• Split PDF: tap the pages you want to keep and save them as a new PDF, or save every page as a separate file. The original file is not changed.
• Sign PDF: draw your signature with your finger, then drag and pinch to place it on any page. Your signature is kept, so the next document takes one tap.
• Both tools are in the Tools tab and in the long-press menu of every document.

As always, PDF Angel works entirely on your iPhone. Your documents are never uploaded.
