Everyday PDF work, finished on your iPhone or iPad. Once your files are on your device, work offline without uploading them or creating an account. Your original files stay unchanged. MAKE AND MANAGE PDFS • Fill & Sign — manually add a handwritten signature, text, dates, checkmarks, and crosses to PDF pages, or draw directly on them. Create a new PDF to save or share. A signature is saved on this device for reuse by default; you can turn off saving or delete a saved signature. • PDF to Images — select PDF pages and render them as JPG or PNG images, then save them to Files or Photos, or share them. • Scan to PDF — launch the document scanner from the app's home screen, or from inside Images to PDF. Edges are detected and straightened on your device. • Images to PDF — pick images from Files and Photos, or take new photos with the camera. Crop each image by hand, auto-trim its blank outer border, and place 1, 2, or 4 images per page on A4 or Letter. • Merge PDF — combine several PDFs into one and reorder them before saving. • Split PDF — export a page range, selected pages, or single pages as separate files. • Organize Pages — reorder, rotate, and delete pages, then save once when you are done. • Select Pages — pick pages from two or more PDFs and combine them into one new PDF. Reorder, rotate, or duplicate any page; your source files stay unchanged. • Compress PDF — try to reduce the size of image-heavy PDFs before emailing or sharing. • Protect PDF — add an open password. • Unlock PDF — enter the password once and save a copy that no longer needs it. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Once your files are available on this device, all tools work without an internet connection. File names, page thumbnails, document text, and passwords are never sent anywhere. There are no ads and no analytics SDKs. Long jobs show progress and can be cancelled. FREE AND PRO Every tool has a free path that finishes a real task. No tool is locked, and nothing is watermarked. Free includes up to 10 input images or scanned pages per PDF — the same count whether a page holds 1, 2, or 4 images — merging 3 files and 50 pages, splitting into 5 outputs at a time, organizing up to 50 pages, and creating a new PDF from up to 10 selected output pages. Fill & Sign includes up to 12 placed elements per document; Draw strokes do not count toward that limit. PDF to Images includes up to 10 selected pages per export at Standard quality. Pro offers higher limits and High quality for PDF to Images. All Compress presets are free. Protect and Unlock are free without limits. Pro is a one-time purchase for your Apple Account, not a subscription. Buying or restoring Pro goes through the App Store and may require an internet connection. MADE FOR APPLE DEVICES • Files, Photos, and the camera are supported; only the items you select or scan are read. • On iPad, a two-column layout appears at regular widths. • Dynamic Type, VoiceOver labels on page thumbnails, Reduce Motion, and Dark Mode are included. • Every drag-to-reorder action also has a button or menu alternative. PDF Tools is a focused toolkit, not a full editor: it does not run OCR, edit existing PDF text, or recognize or automatically fill AcroForm fields. Signatures are visual, not certificate-based digital signatures; legal validity is not guaranteed.
