VARAK PDF

FREE VARAK PDF Editor & Scanner

A free PDF editor for iPhone with no watermark

A watermark is usually the price of “free”. In VARAK it is not: nothing you export is stamped with a VARAK logo, free or PRO, and there is no account to create. This page spells out what is free, what is not and how the optional trial works.

No watermark, no account, no ads

VARAK never adds its own watermark to your documents. The PRO Watermark tool adds a text watermark only when you choose to use it on a file.

What is free

Editing existing text in the original font, adding text, find & replace, forms, signatures with a date stamp, annotation, scanning, OCR and Make Editable, page tools, combining PDFs, compression, export to PDF/A, PNG, JPEG and text, and on-device AI.

What costs money

VARAK PRO adds Word and Excel export, redaction with a personal-data finder, compare, batch, headers, footers and Bates numbering, watermarks, certificate signatures and sanitize. It costs US$1.99 a month or US$14.99 a year, each with a 3-day free trial, or US$39.99 once.

How the trial works

The 3-day trial is available on the Monthly and Yearly plans for eligible new subscribers and is optional: you never need it to edit, sign, scan or save. Subscriptions are managed and cancelled in your Apple Account settings.

Questions and answers

Does the free version of VARAK add a watermark?

No. Nothing VARAK exports carries a VARAK watermark. A text watermark appears only if you add one with the PRO Watermark tool.

Do I have to start a trial to edit a PDF?

No. Editing existing text, signing, forms, scanning and OCR are free without a trial.

Why do other free PDF apps add watermarks?

Often because the free tier is limited and export is part of the paid plan. Read an app’s in-app purchase list before relying on it; our comparison page shows list prices for the main apps.
