how to sign a pdf on iphone
- drop your pdf on the box above, or click it to choose a file.
- choose signature, initials or date. draw or type your signature, and keep it saved on this device if you want to reuse it.
- click or drag on the page to position the dashed box, set its size, and press add. repeat for more places, pages or stamp types.
- press download signed pdf.
the drawing pad opens ready for your finger. use landscape mode for a wider pad, and write slowly so the line is smooth. if you do not like the result, press clear and try again. once you press use this signature it stays saved on the phone, so next time it is one tap.
tap the page to position the dashed box and drag to adjust. pinch zoom still works in safari, so you can check the position before you save. when you download the signed pdf, safari lists it under downloads, from where share, save to files puts it back in the files app.

frequently asked questions
does it work with apple pencil?
yes. the pad takes input from a finger, a pencil or a mouse. a pencil gives thinner, more precise lines.
will my signature still be there next time?
yes, unless safari clears site data, you use a private tab, or you switch phones. it is stored only on this device.
how do i get the signed file into mail or messages?
after the download finishes, open it from the safari downloads list and tap share. you can also save it to files first.
