A practical PDF editor and PDF converter built for clear everyday document work. The app gives you a simple way to organize, edit, convert, and prepare PDF documents without relying on complicated software or web-based tools. It is designed for users who need a dependable PDF workflow for work, study, and personal files. Most tools work offline and process documents directly on your device.

ChuteDrop

Big files should not be a problem. ChuteDrop turns photos, videos and documents into a single link you can send to anyone. Pick what you want to send, upload it once, then share the link over WhatsApp, Messages, email — or just copy it. Whoever you send it to downloads straight from their browser. No account, no app, nothing for them to install. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT • Originals, not copies. Photos and videos upload at full quality, with no re-encoding on the way out. • Uploads that survive real life. Lose signal, switch apps, or come back tomorrow — a transfer resumes from the part it reached instead of starting over. • Links on your terms. Set files to auto-expire after 1 to 90 days, or keep links alive for as long as you need them on Studio plans. • A library that remembers. Every link you have made, what went into it, and how many times it has been downloaded. • Delete means deleted. Removing a transfer kills the link and the files right away. • Made for iPhone and iPad. FREE TO START Ten transfers or 3 GB every 30 days, up to 3 GB each, with links that last three days. No card required. PLANS • Lite — 25 GB storage, 5 GB per transfer, 7-day links • Pro — 300 GB storage, 300 GB per transfer, links up to 30 days • Studio — 2 TB storage, 1 TB per transfer, non-expiring links • Studio Plus — 8 TB storage, 4 TB per transfer, non-expiring links Every plan bills monthly or yearly, and choosing yearly saves at least 24%. Need the room only once? A one-time 100 GB top-up adds space for 30 days without changing your plan. Sign in with Apple, or with nothing but your email address. SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS ChuteDrop subscriptions are auto-renewable. Lite, Pro, Studio and Studio Plus are each offered as a monthly or a yearly subscription, and the price is shown in the app before you buy. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. A subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours of the end of that period. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings after purchase. Terms of Use: https://chutedrop.com/terms Privacy Policy: https://chutedrop.com/privacy
