Every Common PDF Task - One Focused App

PDF Maker brings the tools you actually use - convert, scan, merge, compress, rotate, flatten - into one fast, distraction-free interface.

Photos to PDF

Turn any image into a polished PDF. Pick from your library, snap with the camera, or import files. A4, Letter, Legal, or auto-fit.

Document Scanner

Auto edge detection turns your camera into a sharp scanner for receipts, whiteboards, contracts, and handwritten notes.

Merge PDFs

Combine multiple PDFs into one document, drag to reorder pages, and assemble project bundles or expense reports.

Compress & Reduce Size

Shrink heavy PDFs so attachments send, cloud storage breathes, and sharing stops being a headache.

Flatten PDFs

Lock down form fields, comments, and annotations into static content so your document looks identical everywhere.

Rotate Pages

Fix sideways scans or upside-down photos in 90° increments - one page or the whole document, with live preview.

View & Edit Pages

Smooth viewer with thumbnails - rotate, delete, or extract pages into a new PDF without leaving the app.

Comfortable Dark UI

Dark interface, clean layout, and haptic feedback - tools right where you expect them, no menu hunting.

Privacy First

Documents are processed on your device. Nothing uploaded to external servers - what you create stays yours.

Mac Screens

Real captures of the Mac app - convert images, edit text, annotate, split, merge, and compare PDFs side-by-side.

iPhone Screens

Real iPhone captures - scan, convert, merge, and share PDFs in seconds, one-handed.

Who It's For

  • Students assembling research papers and study notes from photos and scans.
  • Professionals preparing client materials, contracts, and signed paperwork.
  • Small business owners digitizing receipts, invoices, and records.
  • Families preserving documents, memories, and certificates as searchable PDFs.

Why On-Device PDF Tools

Most PDF web tools upload your file to a server you don't control. PDF Maker does the opposite - everything happens locally on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.

No accounts, no leaks, no quotas. Open the app on a plane or in a cafe and the toolkit still works.

Free, With Pro Unlock

Use the core tools for free - convert photos to PDF, scan documents, view and rotate pages.

  • Pro subscription unlocks heavier batch workflows and advanced editing.
  • Auto-renews unless disabled 24h before period ends - manage in Account Settings.
  • Files always stay local - subscription doesn't change privacy behavior.

A Compact Document Studio

Convert, scan, merge, compress, flatten, rotate, view, and edit - all from one screen with thumbnail navigation and quick actions.

Designed for the kind of PDF work people actually do every week, without a steep learning curve.

Desktop-Level PDF Tools, In Your Pocket

PDF Maker keeps the toolkit small, fast, and private - exactly the way day-to-day PDF work should feel.
