PDF to Text on iPhone
Phone-screen PDF selection is a losing game of zoom and drag — extraction skips it entirely: the whole document's text, delivered clean into whatever iOS app needs it. Free with fair daily limits.

Fast results
Optimized processing returns your file in seconds.
Free to start
Core tools are free with daily limits — no install required.

Text is the phone's currency
Quotes into Notes, passages into translation apps, content into messages — phone workflows consume text, and the extraction supplies it document-complete instead of selection-fragment by fragment.
The Safari flow
Upload from Files, extract (free OCR runs for scans), and the text file opens into Notes, Mail or any editor — the document's words, finally native to the phone.
