One private workflow

From paper to finished PDF,
without a detour.

Read

The page stays central.

Open long documents in a focused native reader with thumbnails, outlines, bookmarks, and flexible page layouts close at hand.

New in FolikPDF 1.0.1

More ways in.
More control on the way out.

Photos, scans, Office documents, text files, and mixed batches can now become reviewed PDFs on your device. Existing PDFs gain practical tools for OCR, compression, library-wide search, and permanent redaction.

Recognize

Make scanned PDFs searchable

Folik keeps the original page graphics, skips pages that already contain text or annotations, and lets you review the searchable copy before saving.

Convert

Bring documents into PDF

Convert Word, LibreOffice, text, RTF, images, legacy DOC, and supported Pages previews entirely on your device—with compatibility notes up front.

Protect

Create a truly redacted copy

Marked areas are erased into rendered pixels while source text, metadata, links, attachments, forms, and editable annotations stay out of the new file.

Also in 1.0.1

  • Batch up to 20 mixed files
  • Three PDF compression presets
  • Virtual folders and tags
  • Library-wide PDF text search

Private by architecture

There is no FolikPDF cloud.

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.

A complete workspace

Small app. Serious tools.

Read and find

Native PDFKit rendering, outlines, bookmarks, contextual document search, and flexible page layouts.

Search your library

Organize with virtual folders and tags, then search filenames, labels, and selectable PDF text with page excerpts.

Scan and recognize

Scan paper or add a searchable text layer to an existing PDF with on-device OCR and review before saving.

Turn files into PDFs

Convert images, TXT, RTF, DOCX, ODT, legacy DOC, and supported Pages previews without uploading the source.

Batch and organize

Prepare up to 20 mixed files as separate PDFs or one combined document, and safely reshape individual pages.

Compress with a preview

Compare three native optimization presets and keep the original bytes whenever compression would make a file larger.

Fill and sign

Complete standard AcroForms and reuse protected handwritten or typed signatures and initials.

Annotate precisely

Highlight, draw, stamp, add text and shapes, then move, resize, recolor, undo, and redo.

Redact before sharing

Paint marked regions into a reviewed image-only copy that leaves source text and document objects behind.
