PDFVault

The private scanner with a brain.

PDFVault scans, organizes, and redacts your documents entirely on your device. No accounts. No uploads. No subscription.

NO SIGN-UP REQUIRED
Open the app and start scanning immediately. We don't ask for your email, we don't track your location, and there are no ads and no analytics. Nothing about how you use the app is tracked.

SCAN & STITCH ID CARDS
Automatic edge detection, shadow cleanup, and built-in text recognition (OCR). Use the ID Card mode to stitch the front and back of your driver's license or ID card onto a single page automatically.

KEEP IT PRIVATE
Store sensitive files in a biometric-protected vault, hidden from the system Files app. Add passwords to individual PDFs. Strip hidden metadata before sharing. Block screenshots while the app is open.

REDACT WITH CONFIDENCE
Black out sensitive information before sharing. PDFVault suggests items to redact — you review, adjust, and apply. Redaction removes the underlying text, not just the visual mark.

A BRAIN THAT WORKS OFFLINE
Optional on-device AI suggests filenames and folders, writes three-bullet summaries, answers questions about your documents, and lets you search by meaning ("car trouble" finds the mechanic's invoice). One-time model download from Hugging Face (up to ~635MB total); after that, everything runs offline and you can delete the models anytime. Your documents are never uploaded — only the model files are downloaded.

EVERYDAY TOOLS
Compress PDFs and photos for email. Convert PDF to JPG and Word to PDF. Sign with your finger. Share from any app straight into PDFVault.

Try it free with 3 vault slots. One purchase unlocks everything — no subscription, because there are no servers. Already bought it? Restore Purchases brings it back on any device.
