Pagewise
Merge, split, compress, scan and lock PDFs — free, offline and private. Sixteen PDF tools and a fast reader, with no account and no uploads.
About Pagewise
Pagewise is a free PDF editor, reader and scanner for Android. Merge several PDFs into one, split a long document, pull out the pages you need, shrink large files for email, stamp watermarks and page numbers, and protect documents with a password.
Turn paper into a PDF with your camera, combine photos or screenshots, write a quick note as a PDF, export pages as images, or copy the text out of any PDF. Every result can be opened, shared or found again in the Files tab.
PDF processing runs on your device, with no account or document uploads. Pagewise is supported by Google AdMob ads, which use an internet connection and may collect device and ad interaction data. An optional rewarded ad gives you one hour without ads. See our privacy policy for details and ad privacy choices.
