How to Sign a PDF on iPhone — Free Without an App

You can sign a PDF directly on your iPhone in Safari without downloading any app. Here's how to do it in under a minute.

1

Open Safari on Your iPhone

Open Safari and go to pdfeditor.onl/sign-pdf. The tool is fully optimised for mobile Safari and requires no app installation.

2

Upload Your PDF

Tap the upload area and choose your PDF from Files, iCloud Drive, or Photos. The document loads directly in your browser.

3

Draw Your Signature with Your Finger

Use your fingertip on the signature canvas to draw your signature. The canvas is pressure-sensitive and renders a natural ink-like stroke.

Tip: Rotate your iPhone to landscape orientation for a wider canvas — this makes it easier to draw a full, natural signature.

4

Place and Download

Drag the signature to the correct position on the page, then tap Download. The signed PDF saves to your Files app and can be shared via email, AirDrop, or WhatsApp.
