A4Pad – Annotate, Merge PDF

Combine the PDFs, photos and screenshots you already have — then handwrite notes right on them, on real A4 pages. Place images anywhere. 100% offline, iPhone and iPad.

Combine everything into one clean document — then write all over it. Handwrite notes on real A4 pages with Apple Pencil, place images anywhere, and mark up any page. No account, no cloud — everything stays on your iPhone or iPad.

A4Pad is the fast, private way to bring the files you already have into one tidy document. Combine existing PDFs, photos, and screenshots — plus fresh camera scans when you need them — into a single organized notebook. Or open one existing PDF just to annotate and highlight it directly, no merging required. No sign-up, no learning curve, no clutter.

Arrange the pages exactly how you want, mark them up, and export a single polished PDF — all on device.

A notebook that starts from your documents. Most note apps give you a blank page. A4Pad gives you a blank A4 page too — plain, ruled, squared, or dotted — but it also lets you write straight onto the scans, PDFs, and screenshots you already have, in the same notebook. Handwrite with Apple Pencil on iPad, or with your finger on iPhone. Strokes stay on their own layer, so you can erase and adjust them later without ever touching the page underneath.
