PDF editor for Android
Most Android PDF apps are readers with a paywall bolted on: editing costs money, and the "free" conversion features quietly upload your document to a server. Haven PDF for Android is the whole editor, free, and it never sends your file anywhere.
It is the same editor as the website, packaged as an app: tap a PDF in Files, Gmail or WhatsApp and open it here, edit text, sign with your finger, compress to an exact size, OCR a scan, convert Word ↔ PDF. Everything runs on the phone — turn on airplane mode and it still works.
Opens from anywhere on the phone
Haven PDF registers as a PDF viewer, so it appears in "Open with" for any PDF — in Files, Gmail, WhatsApp, Drive or a browser download. It is also a share target: share a PDF, Word file or photos to it and they open straight in the editor. You can set it as your default PDF app from the Android "Open with → Always" prompt.
A phone photo becomes a real scan
Share or open a photo and the Scan & straighten step appears: drag the four corners onto the document, pick colour, grayscale or high-contrast black-and-white, and you get a flat, straight PDF page — no scanner app, no upload. Add several photos and they become one multi-page PDF.
Editing, not just reading
Edit existing PDF text, add text boxes and images, draw a signature with your finger, fill and flatten forms, redact (truly removed on export), merge and reorder pages, compress to an exact target size for upload limits, OCR scans into searchable PDFs, convert Word ↔ PDF and images ↔ PDF.
Free, offline, no account
No sign-up, no watermark, no page limits and no ads. Nothing is uploaded, so there is no server copy of your contract or ID scan anywhere. Android 7 and later.
