Local PDF Export is a privacy-focused document tool for iPhone. You can choose a PDF from the Files app or use Apple’s built-in document scanner to create a PDF on device. The app processes files locally and helps you export document content in a more usable format for viewing, sharing, and follow-up editing. Features: • Import PDF files from the Files app • Scan paper documents into PDF using the system scanner • Export document content as a .docx file • Preserve page visuals and include editable extracted text when available • Share exported files with the iOS share sheet • No sign-up required • No server upload during document processing Privacy: All document processing is performed on device. Your files are not uploaded to a remote server by the app. Notes: For complex layouts, scanned pages, tables, or image-heavy PDFs, exported documents may combine page previews with editable text instead of reproducing the exact original layout.
