Folio
Every PDF tool you need — 100% free, and 100% on your device. No account. No uploads. No tracking.

iOS
The full Folio toolkit, native on iPhone and iPad. On-device, no account.

The same Folio on your Mac, from the Mac App Store.
Windows
Installer or a single portable .exe — no install needed. Runs entirely offline.

One APK for every Android — including Huawei devices. No Google services required.
- Nothing leaves your device. Every operation runs locally, on your own hardware.
- No account, ever. Open it and use every feature. No sign-up, no email.
- No network access. Folio is built so it can’t upload a file even if it tried.
- No tracking. No analytics, no third-party SDKs, no data collection.
Is Folio really free?
Yes. Every tool is free — no account, no subscription, no paywall.
Is Folio a good alternative to iLovePDF, Smallpdf or Adobe Acrobat?
Yes. It does the same things — merge, split, compress, convert, OCR, sign — but runs 100% on your device, so your files are never uploaded to a server.
Do my PDFs leave my device?
No. Every operation runs locally. Folio has no network access, so a file can't be uploaded even by accident.
Can Folio convert PDF to Word, Excel or PowerPoint offline?
Yes — conversion happens on your device (best-effort), with nothing sent to the cloud.
Which devices does Folio support?
iPhone, iPad, Mac, Windows and Android — including Huawei devices, since Folio needs no Google services.
