Features
The jobs you open a PDF app for.
Most days you need to sign something, scan a page or pull one file out of three. Avelix PDF makes those quick, and keeps the result on your phone.
Scan to PDF
Capture paper documents with the camera. Edges are detected for you, and every page ends up in one PDF.
Organise pages
Rotate, reorder, delete or number pages before you send the file on.
Merge and split
Combine several PDFs into one, append pages from another file, or keep only the pages you need.
Password and watermark
Lock a PDF with a password before you share it, or stamp text across every page.
All tools
17 tools, in four groups.
Laid out the same way you'll find them in the app, so there's nothing to relearn.

Privacy
Your documents stay on your phone.
Merging, signing, splitting and every other standard tool runs locally. We don't upload your files, and we don't keep copies of them on a server.
The app only goes online for the few things that need it, and only when you use them.

FAQ
Common questions
Can't find what you need? The help centre has step-by-step guides, or email support@avelixpdf.co.za.
Is Avelix PDF really free?
Yes. The free plan includes all 17 tools with 5 actions a day, files up to 50 MB and clean exports. It's supported by ads.
Are my files uploaded anywhere?
No. Standard tools run on your phone, and your documents aren't uploaded to or stored on our servers. A file only leaves the app when you share it.
Does it work without internet?
Mostly, yes. Viewing, merging, signing, watermarking and the other PDF tools work offline. Signing in, subscribing and scanning need a connection.
Do I need an account?
No. You can use every tool without signing in. Google Sign-In is optional.
How do I cancel Premium?
Open Google Play, tap your profile picture, then go to Payments & subscriptions, then Subscriptions, choose Avelix PDF and tap Cancel. Premium stays active until the end of the period you've paid for.
How do I delete my account?
Follow the steps on the account deletion page. Deleting your account doesn't remove PDFs saved on your phone, and it doesn't cancel a Google Play subscription.
