Use PDFBetter on your phone today

  1. Step 1: Open Safari

    Go to pdfbetter.com on your iPhone or iPad.

  2. Step 2: Sign in

    Log in with the same account you use on your computer. Your documents are there.

  3. Step 3: Work as usual

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.
  • Manage or cancel an App Store subscription 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.
