PDF Mind
Read full descriptionHide full description
Sign it, mark it up, and change the words that are already on the page. PDF Mind is a document editor first and a toolbox second. Draw or type a signature and place it exactly where it belongs. Highlight, underline, strike through, draw freehand, add shapes, drop in a text box. Then do the thing most PDF apps on this store cannot: select a line of text that was already printed in the document and rewrite it, in place, the way you would in a word processor. MOST OF IT NEVER LEAVES YOUR PHONE Twenty-four of the thirty-five tools run entirely on your device. Merging, splitting, compressing, signing, watermarking, password-locking, scanning, converting from Excel, PowerPoint, Pages, Numbers, Keynote, HTML and e-mail β all of it happens locally, in the same engines iOS already uses. Your contract, your medical record and your tax return are not uploaded so that a page can be rotated. Where a tool genuinely needs a server, the app says so before you start, on the tool itself, rather than after you have handed over the file. ASK A QUESTION ABOUT THE DOCUMENT Ask AI reads the PDF and answers in plain language: what does this clause commit me to, what is the total on this invoice, summarize these forty pages. It cites where in the document the answer came from, so you can check it. THE EDITOR - Signatures: draw, type, or reuse a saved one; resize and place anywhere - Text: select existing text by dragging and replace it, or add new text boxes - Markup: highlight, underline, strikeout, freehand ink, shapes, eraser - Every change is one undo step, including a twelve-frame drag THE TOOLS Organize: merge, split, remove pages, reorder and rotate pages Secure: password-protect, remove a password, watermark, flatten, ZIP Convert to PDF: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Pages, Numbers, Keynote, HTML, a web page, an e-mail, photos Convert from PDF: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, images, plain text, Markdown, EPUB, RTF, HTML, CSV, grayscale, PDF/A, PDF/X Scan: use the camera to capture pages, with OCR to make them searchable Compress: make a file small enough to e-mail, and see the size before you commit WORKS WITH THE REST OF THE PHONE Open a PDF from Files, Mail, Safari or any app through the share sheet. Save back to Files or iCloud Drive. Nothing is locked inside the app. PRO A subscription unlocks the server-backed tools and removes limits. Price, billing period and renewal terms are shown in full before you buy, and you can restore a purchase at any time without unlocking a tool first. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends; manage or cancel in your Apple Account settings.
