Why printing and scanning is finally over

The old signing routine — print the PDF, sign it, scan it, email it back — has somehow survived into 2026. Most companies accept electronic signatures, but plenty of contracts still arrive with 'please sign and return' as if everyone owns a printer and a scanner.

Public e-signature services solve part of this but introduce login friction, document upload, account management, and price tiers. For a single signature on a single document, that's overkill and adds latency you don't need.

A native signing flow on your phone is the right size for the job: open the PDF, draw or type your signature, place it, send. The whole sequence takes under a minute and works without an account, on a plane, or in a parking lot.

Sign the way that fits the document

  • Handwritten signature

    Draw with your finger or a stylus. Save it once, reuse it on every future document.

  • Typed signature

    Type your name and pick a script-style font for clean, legible signatures.

  • Initials stamp

    Save your initials separately for documents that need them on every page.

  • Date stamps

    One-tap date insertion alongside your signature when contracts ask for it.

  • Multi-signer workflow

    Pass a PDF between signers via the share sheet. Each signature stays in place.

  • Export with audit info

    The signed copy includes a timestamp and signature metadata for record-keeping.

How to sign a PDF on your phone

  1. 1

    Open the PDF

    Import the document into the PDF Editor app from Files, email, or any sharing app.

  2. 2

    Tap the Sign tool

    Located in the editing toolbar. Pick handwritten, typed, or initials.

  3. 3

    Draw or type your signature

    First time only — the signature is saved for future use. Edit or replace it any time in Settings.

  4. 4

    Place and resize

    Drag the signature to the right spot. Resize with corner handles. Add a date stamp if needed.

  5. 5

    Export the signed copy

    Save back to the original or as a new copy. Share directly via Mail or any messaging app.

Signing without disrupting the day

A signature is rarely the bottleneck — it's the time it takes to find a printer that is. Signing on a phone means contracts get back to the other side within the hour, not the day. Especially helpful for freelancers, small business owners, and anyone working away from a desk.
