Save money on your PDF editor. Spend it on a Duo.

Papayra is one purchase, not a yearly bill. Keep the difference for the iPhone that folds.

iPhone Duo

Fold it. Unfold it. Keep typing.

Papayra is made for the iPhone that folds.

Folded. On the outer screen, Papayra is a phone app: open a PDF and start an edit.
Unfolded. Open it out and the editor fills the big inner screen with the tablet layout and the page sidebar.
Your edit comes with you. The paragraph you are typing stays open across the fold, keyboard and all.

What it does

Everything you do to a PDF.

Edit the words, redact for real, fill and sign, and put the pages in order. Open any picture to see the whole screen.

Every feature, explained →

Apple first

Made for the Mac and the iPhone.

Papayra is made for Apple devices and nothing else: an app for the Mac that works the way your Mac does, an app for iPhone and iPad made for touch, and on iPhone Duo, a layout for the folded and the unfolded screen.

Local only

Your documents never leave your device.

Every page is opened, edited and saved on your Mac or iPhone. No account, no sign-in, no upload. Contracts, records and filings stay exactly where they are: with you.

No subscription

Buy it once. Own it. It’s yours.

One purchase unlocks everything. No tiers, no renewals, no features held back for a monthly plan. It’s your software, the way software used to be.

Apple first

Mac. iPad. iPhone.

One editor, made for every Apple screen you own.

Papayra for Mac

Open a PDF from Finder, click Edit, and type. Papayra saves back into the same file, prints like every Mac app, and runs on macOS 13 or later.

Papayra for iPad

A full-size editor with the page sidebar, made for touch and Apple Pencil.

Papayra for iPhone

Fix a date, fill a form, sign it, wherever you are. Open from Files, Mail or Messages, and share the result to any app.

Bought on the App Store, one purchase unlocks Papayra on your Mac, iPhone and iPad.

Which devices are supported?

Local only

Nothing leaves your Mac. Or your iPhone.

Papayra opens, draws, edits and saves every page on your own device. There is nothing to sign in to, and nowhere for your files to go.

No account. Nothing to create, nothing to remember, nothing to lose.
No upload. Your documents are never sent anywhere to be processed.
No tracking. No analytics in the apps, and none on this website.
Data Not Collected. That is Papayra’s App Store privacy label, because that is what it does.

No subscription

Buy once. Own it. It’s yours.

Most PDF editors now rent you your own documents: a monthly bill, an account, and your files in someone else’s cloud. Papayra is the other way of doing it.

The sample

Made for the hard pages.

Full-bleed photographs, drop caps, columns, pull quotes, a statistics panel and a form on the last page. We made World Conservation, an eight-page sample magazine, to show Papayra at work. Every screenshot on this site is Papayra editing it.
