Read and find
Native PDFKit rendering, outlines, bookmarks, contextual document search, and flexible page layouts.
Independent by nature.
A native PDF workspace for iPhone + iPad
Read, fill, build, sign, and organize PDFs without sending a single page to someone else’s server. A clearer workspace on iPhone, iPad, and iPhone Duo.
One private workflow
New in FolikPDF 1.0.5
Dedicated Read, Fill, and Build controls keep the next step clear. On wider layouts, work with form tools beside your PDF. Samples and templates open document-first, with a cleaner native Duo rail and smoother opening transitions.

The wider Fill workspace brings field progress, the selected field, and Next unfinished alongside the document.

Switch to Build, arrange the layout, and add practical field types without leaving the document.

Choose an included form such as a Work Order or Inspection Checklist. Open the document first, then make it your own.
Also in 1.0.5
Private by architecture
No backend receives your PDFs, scans, search terms, signatures, or edits. Apple’s frameworks do the work where your documents already are: on your device.
