Free version does not work well
I thought I would try the free version to see how will it worked before committing to purchasing and I am glad I did. It doesn’t work well at all. Couldn’t recognize basic things like SSN, phone number or names.

What's New in StripPii
1.2.5
August 11, 2026
Open and redact password-protected PDFs. Enter the password once to unlock - it's used only in the moment and never stored - then redact as usual. You choose whether the exported copy stays password-protected. See What Was Detected, and Why The review screen now shows how each word was found - a built-in pattern (with its specific type, like Email or SSN), your saved words, a custom keyword, or on-device AI - each with a clear icon and caption. Faster & Lighter PII detection is noticeably faster and now runs in the background, so the app stays responsive on large documents, with lower memory use during batch redaction. As always, all detection and redaction happen entirely on your iPhone and iPad. Nothing is ever uploaded.
