Scan to PDF
Capture pages with the camera.
Android · free, ad supported
Every PDF job, done on your phone
Scan, edit, merge, convert, compress and password-protect PDFs. All of it runs on the device, so nothing you open is uploaded.
PDF Wallah is not on Google Play yet. This page is the honest placeholder until it is, and the button above will start working the moment it goes live.
Seven tools
The whole toolbox, one tap away
Each tool does one job and does it on the phone. No queue, no upload, no waiting on a server.
Edit PDF
Text, erase, draw & sign.
Merge PDF
Combine two or more files.
Convert to PDF
Images, text, Word & more.
PDF to any
Text, Word or images.
PDF Password
Encrypt or unlock a file.
Compress PDF
Shrink to a size you pick.
Where the limits are
Compression rasterizes pages. Office files convert text, not layout. Spreadsheets are not supported. It is all written down.
On-device by design
Your documents never leave the phone
Every scan, edit, conversion and password is handled locally. Two things touch the internet: the Upcoming Apps list and the ad network. Neither one sees your files.
No account, no sign-in
Install and use it. There is nothing to register and no profile on our side, because there is no server holding one.
Nothing is uploaded
File names, contents and page counts stay on the device. The ad network never receives any of it.
Works with no connection
Scanning, editing, converting, compressing and passwords all work offline. Saving works offline too.

Common questions
The three we get asked most
Why can’t I edit the text in my scanned PDF?
A scan is a photograph of a page, so there is no text layer to edit — the words are pixels. Use Erase to cover the old wording, then Add text to type over it. PDFs made on a computer usually do have a text layer, and those are fully editable.
Why is the text blurry after compressing?
Compression turns each page into an image and lowers its quality, which is what makes a specific target size achievable. Softer text is the trade-off. Choose a larger target or the Light preset for sharper results.
Does the app work without internet?
Every document feature does — scanning, editing, converting, compressing and passwords all run on the device. Only the Upcoming Apps list and ads need a connection. With no connection the ads simply do not appear and nothing else changes, including saving.
Coming soon to Google Play
PDF Wallah is finished and in review preparation. It will be free and ad supported, needs Android 7.0 (API 24) or newer, and asks for no account. Questions before launch are welcome.
