These are some of the tools I have included in my app Scribe PDF which is available on the Apple store. Can you suggest more tools that can be included.

There are other tools available e.g. Nitro PDF, I love PDF, Adobe Acrobat. Scribe PDF competes with them on various fronts

  1. Scribe PDF is totally local. Nothing gets uploaded to server. It works without internet as well.

  2. Scribe PDF is Apple Only. It covers the whole eco-system - IPAD, IOS, Mac, Vision OS etc.

  3. One cost for the whole Apple eco-system. If you buy once, it works across the platforms.

  4. Family sharing is enabled.

  5. Free tools are available. Pro tools are available either on subscription ($24.99 for annual subscriptions; $49.99 for one-time purchase and $79.99 for lifetime).

  6. Multilingual support - the app is available in 12 languages

  7. iMessage and email integration - easily send the files through the app itself.

Check out the app and give feedback on how it can be improved.
