Why editing PDFs has always been painful
PDFs were designed to look identical everywhere — which is exactly what makes them hard to edit. Most apps on a phone only let you view or annotate them. The moment you need to fix a typo, replace a name, or move a page, you're sent back to a desktop or asked to upload your file to a random website.
Those upload-and-pray websites are a privacy mess. They keep your file for hours, they're often slow, and you can't trust what they do with sensitive contracts, invoices, or IDs. The result: most people screenshot the part they want to fix, edit it as an image, and email a version that looks worse than the original.
A native mobile editor solves this without compromises. Edits happen on-device. The original layout is preserved. You can email the result a minute after you started — without uploading anything to a stranger's server.
What you can actually do
Edit text in place
Fix typos, swap names, change dates — without breaking the layout. Works on text-based PDFs.
Insert and replace images
Drop in a new logo or photo. Resize and reposition without leaving the page.
Reorder pages
Drag thumbnails to reorder. Delete pages, duplicate them, or insert a new blank.
Signatures and initials
Add a real handwritten signature or a typed one. Place it anywhere with a single tap.
Markup and highlights
Highlight, underline, strike through. Add freehand notes or sticky comments.
Fill in forms
Tap fields to fill them in. Save the completed form as a new PDF.

Editing on the go
Most PDF edits happen at the worst possible moment — five minutes before a meeting, on a train, between classes. A phone-first editor lets you fix that misspelled name on a contract while walking to the office, or stamp your signature on a quote during a coffee break. No laptop, no desktop, no waiting until you're home.

Frequently asked questions
- Yes. Core editing — text, images, page reordering, signatures, and exports — is free. Some advanced features unlock with the Pro upgrade.
- Yes. Editing happens entirely on-device. You only need a connection if you're pulling files from a cloud drive or sharing via online services.
- Scanned PDFs are technically images. You can still annotate, sign, and rearrange pages. Editing the actual text requires OCR first, which the app can run on most documents.
- There's no artificial limit. Very large PDFs (hundreds of MB with complex graphics) may be slower on older phones, but the app is built to handle real-world documents.
- No. Edits are made in place. Fonts, margins, and existing formatting stay intact for text-based PDFs.
- Yes. You can convert the edited PDF to Word or other formats from the same app.
