Getting started
What does PageMade do?
PageMade turns a photo of a printed page into a real, editable document. It reads the text, rebuilds headings, paragraphs, lists and tables, and keeps your original ink, like signatures and stamps. You can fix anything it got wrong, then share the result as a PDF or a Word document.
Which devices does it work on?
iPhone and iPad running iOS 26 or iPadOS 26 or later.
Can I use photos or PDFs I already have?
Yes. Import pictures from your Photos library, or images and PDFs from the Files app, up to 20 pages at a time. Each page becomes one page of your document.
Does PageMade need an internet connection?
No. Reading and rebuilding pages happens entirely on your device, so it works on a plane, in a basement or anywhere else. You only need a connection to buy PageMade Forever or to send a document somewhere online.
How do I get the best result?
- Lay the page flat, in even light, without strong shadows.
- Fit the whole page in the frame and hold steady. PageMade takes the photo by itself once the page is still.
- If PageMade can't find the edges, you can frame the page yourself or keep the full photo.
Accuracy and editing
How accurate is PageMade?
On clear, printed pages it's very good, but it can still make mistakes: a word, a number, a name or a date. PageMade flags text it isn't sure about so you can review it. Please always compare your document with the original page before you rely on it, sign it or send it.
How do I fix a mistake?
Tap the line or table cell you want to change. PageMade shows you the matching part of your original photo right beside it, so you can see exactly what the page says. Undo and redo are always there, and you can switch to the full photo at any time.
What happens to handwriting, signatures and logos?
PageMade is built to read printed text. Ink and graphics on the page, like signatures, handwritten notes, stamps and logos, are kept as they look on the original, so nothing is lost.
Can I add, remove or reorder pages?
Yes. You can add, duplicate, delete, reorder and rotate pages, and choose the page size: US Letter, A4, Legal, A5, Half Letter, Index card or Card.
Is a PageMade document an official copy?
No. It's a rebuilt copy of your page, not a certified or official copy of the original, and it shouldn't be presented as one.
Word and PDF
Should I share as Word or PDF?
Choose Word (.docx) when you or someone else will keep editing the document in Microsoft Word, Pages or Google Docs. Choose PDF when you want it to look exactly the same everywhere, for example to send, print or file it.
Do tables stay tables in Word?
Yes. Tables are rebuilt as real tables, with their rows and columns, so you can keep editing them in Word.
Where can I send my documents?
Anywhere the iOS share sheet goes: Files, iCloud Drive, Mail, Messages, AirDrop, or another app. You can also share the original photo of a page.
How does Add Signature work?
Draw your signature once and place it on any page. It's saved on your device as a picture of your signature. It isn't a certified digital signature. You can delete it at any time in Settings.
Privacy and your data
Are my pages uploaded anywhere?
No. PageMade reads and rebuilds your pages on your device. Your photos and documents aren't sent to us or anyone else, and PageMade has no ads, analytics or tracking. Read the Privacy Policy for the details.
Do I need an account?
No. There's no sign-up, email or password. Your purchase is tied to your Apple Account by the App Store.
How do I delete my documents?
- One document: press and hold it in your library, then choose Delete.
- Everything: open Settings in PageMade and choose Delete All Documents.
- Your signature: choose Delete Saved Signature in Settings.
Deleting the app also deletes everything it stored on that device. Copies you shared, and device backups, aren't affected.
Are my documents synced or backed up?
PageMade doesn't sync documents between devices. Your device's own backups, like iCloud Backup, may include them. To keep a document somewhere else, share it to Files or iCloud Drive.
Purchase
What's free?
You can make, edit and keep as many documents as you like. Your first 5 documents can be shared as a PDF or Word file for free. A document counts the first time you share it. Sharing it again, or sharing the original photo, is always free.
How much is PageMade Forever?
$19.99, once. It unlocks unlimited documents for good. There's no subscription and nothing renews. The App Store shows the price for your country before you buy.
How do I restore my purchase on a new device?
Sign in with the same Apple Account, open PageMade and choose Restore Purchases.
Can my family use it?
Yes. PageMade Forever works with Family Sharing, so people in your family group can unlock it too.
How do I get a refund?
Apple handles payments and refunds. Request one at reportaproblem.apple.com.
Does reinstalling the app reset my free documents?
No. The count is kept in your device's Keychain, as random identifiers with no document content, so it survives reinstalling.
App lock
How do I lock PageMade?
Open Settings in PageMade and turn on Lock with Face ID. PageMade then asks for Face ID or your passcode when it opens, and hides your documents in the app switcher.
Does PageMade see my Face ID data?
No. iOS checks your face or passcode and only tells PageMade whether it succeeded.
