How to merge PDFs on iPhone
- Tap the box above and choose your PDFs from Files (or iCloud Drive).
- Use the arrows to set the order.
- Tap "Merge PDF", then Download, and save it to Files.
The built-in way: Files app
In the Files app, tap Select, choose the PDFs, tap the "…" (More) button and choose Create PDF. iOS combines them in the order they appear in the folder, so sort or rename them first.
Pdfverter is easier when you want to choose the order yourself or combine PDFs from different folders.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to install an app?
No. Pdfverter works in Safari. Nothing to install, no account needed.
Are my PDFs uploaded anywhere?
No. Pdfverter processes your files inside your browser, on your own device. Nothing is sent to a server, so it is safe for contracts, statements and other confidential documents.
Where is the merged PDF saved?
After you tap Download, Safari saves it to the Downloads folder in the Files app. You can share it from there.
