QPdf - PDF Reader & Editor

A complete PDF workspace that keeps your documents on your device. Read, annotate, type on any page, sign, scan, OCR and redact — free, with no account and no watermark.

QPdf is a local-first PDF workspace for phone, tablet and desktop. Your documents stay on your device.

READ AND SEARCH • Fast page rendering with text selection and in-document search • Open PDFs straight from Files, email or any app that shares them

ANNOTATE AND MARK UP • Highlight, underline, strike through and draw freehand • Add sticky notes, shapes, arrows and images to any page

FILL AND SIGN • Type text anywhere on a page — it works the same on scanned and flattened forms as on digital ones • Draw a signature, or apply a cryptographic digital signature

ORGANISE PAGES • Reorder, rotate, delete, extract and merge pages • Combine several PDFs into one • Add page numbers

CREATE AND CONVERT • Build a PDF from photos • Scan paper with the camera • Add a searchable text layer with on-device OCR — pages are never uploaded

PROTECT • Secure redaction produces an image-only copy and strips searchable text, interactive content, metadata and existing signatures • PDF/UA and PDF/A accessibility and archiving audits

PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No advertising SDK. No analytics SDK. QPdf does not upload the PDFs you open. The only network request is an optional one-time OCR model download, verified against a published checksum.

Free, with no subscription and no watermark.
