# PDFBetter on iPhone and iPad

> The PDFBetter iPhone and iPad app is coming to the App Store. Until it's out, pdfbetter.com works in Safari on any iPhone or iPad, including filling, signing and sending documents. The app uses the same account and documents as the web.

> **Not in the App Store yet:** The app is being prepared for App Store review. The [iPhone download page](https://pdfbetter.com/download/iphone/) links straight to it the day it's out.

## Use PDFBetter on your phone today

1. **Open Safari**: Go to pdfbetter.com on your iPhone or iPad.
2. **Sign in**: Log in with the same account you use on your computer. Your documents are there.
3. **Work as usual**: Fill forms, sign, send for signature and use the tools in the browser.

## What the app adds

- **Scan with the camera.** Turn paper into a searchable PDF; text is recognized on your iPhone.
- **Sign with a finger** or Apple Pencil, and reuse your saved signature.
- **Open from any app** with the share sheet, from Mail, Files or Safari.
- **Same account.** Everything you save shows up on the web and on your computer.

## Plans in the app

The app is free to download and uses your PDFBetter plan. If you already pay on pdfbetter.com, that plan unlocks the app too; the app shows **Manage on pdfbetter.com** instead of offering a purchase. If you subscribe in the app, Apple bills you, and the plan also unlocks pdfbetter.com and the desktop apps.

- In-app prices are shown before you buy and can differ from the prices on the [pricing page](https://pdfbetter.com/pricing/).
- Manage or cancel an [App Store subscription](https://help.pdfbetter.com/account-billing/app-store-and-appsumo-plans/) in the app under **Account → Plan → Manage subscription**, or in iPhone **Settings → your name → Subscriptions**.
- New phone or reinstalled the app? Tap **Restore purchases**.
- App Store refunds are handled by Apple. In the app, tap **Request a refund**.

### Will my documents be on my phone?

Yes. Sign in with the same account and everything you've saved is there.

### Is there an Android app?

Not yet. Use pdfbetter.com in your phone's browser to fill, sign and send PDFs.

- [Use one PDFBetter account on several devices](https://help.pdfbetter.com/apps/use-pdfbetter-on-several-devices.md): Sign in with the same account everywhere: pdfbetter.com, the Mac and Windows apps and the iPhone app. Your documents, saved signatures and plan are the same on every device. There's no device limit.
- [Can I use PDFBetter offline?](https://help.pdfbetter.com/apps/what-works-offline.md): Mostly no. Your documents live in your account, so pdfbetter.com and the Mac and Windows apps need an internet connection. When you're offline, the desktop app shows a reconnect screen. The iPhone app keeps edits on the device until it can sync.
- [Install PDFBetter on your Mac](https://help.pdfbetter.com/apps/install-mac-app.md): Download the Mac app from pdfbetter.com/download/mac, open the .dmg and drag PDFBetter into Applications. It's signed and notarized by Apple, needs macOS 12 or later, and signs you in through your browser.
- [Plans bought in the App Store or on AppSumo](https://help.pdfbetter.com/account-billing/app-store-and-appsumo-plans.md): An App Store subscription unlocks your plan on every device, but Apple bills it, so you change, cancel or refund it through Apple. An AppSumo lifetime deal is paid once on AppSumo and redeemed from your AppSumo account.
- [Sign a PDF yourself](https://help.pdfbetter.com/signing/sign-pdf-yourself.md): Open the PDF, choose Sign → Add signature, create your signature (type, draw or upload) and select Save and sign, then click where it goes. Download with Done → Download. This adds a visual signature; to collect other people's signatures with evidence, request signatures instead.
