Your files never leave your iPhone

More & Better for less. Privacy comes first!

The PDF editor for iPhone that keeps your files private.

Edit PDF text, merge, split, compress, sign and convert any file to PDF, all on your iPhone. No uploads, no account, no hourly limits. It even works in airplane mode.

Free to use: 3 files a day with a short ad, no watermarks. Or $0.99 per file, or go Pro.

Private by design

Most PDF tools upload your documents. Sheaf can’t.

Leases, pay slips, medical forms and IDs are exactly the files you shouldn’t send to a stranger’s server. Sheaf does every job on your iPhone’s own chip, so your documents stay with you.

Nothing is uploadedEditing, converting, OCR and compression all run on the device.

Works offlineOn a plane, in a basement, or with Wi-Fi off.

No account, no limitsNo sign-up, no page caps, no “come back in an hour”.

FAQ

Questions people ask

How do I edit a PDF on my iPhone?

Open the PDF in Sheaf, choose Edit PDF, and tap any line of text to change it. You can also add text, images, drawings, highlights, shapes and your signature, then save.

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. Every tool runs on your iPhone. Files are never uploaded, and the app works offline.

Is Sheaf free?

Yes. All basic tools are free to use and preview. You can save 3 files a day for free by watching one short ad each, on files up to 15 pages or 10 MB. After that it’s $0.99 per file, or Pro removes ads and limits. Free files are never watermarked.

Can I convert Word, Excel or photos to PDF on iPhone?

Yes. Import Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Pages, text or image files and Sheaf converts them to PDF on your device, ready to edit.

How do I merge PDFs on iPhone?

Choose Merge, add two or more PDFs, drag them into order and tap Merge. It happens on your iPhone in seconds.

Can I permanently remove sensitive information from a PDF?

Yes, with Redact (Pro). It removes the marked content from the file itself, not just hides it, and strips document metadata. Editing text only changes what’s shown on the page, so use Redact for anything confidential.
