iLovePDF review

iLovePDF's Android app collects the tools from its website in one place. The Google Play listing covers a phone and tablet scanner with OCR, conversion from Office files and images to PDF and from PDF to Word, Excel and PowerPoint, and image extraction. Its editor highlights text, adds notes and comments, draws and inserts images, and fills out forms that you can sign with your finger. Organizing tools compress, merge, split and rotate files, add or remove passwords, number pages and add watermarks. The listing does not mention changing the original text of a PDF, so it is a markup and conversion tool more than a full editor. iLovePDF's pricing page offers a free Basic plan with essential tools and limited processing, and Premium for 1 to 25 users with unlimited processing, digital signatures and 2,000 AI credits across web, mobile and desktop. Students and academics can get a year of Premium free. Prices showed in euros from our location.
