They were one- and two-star reviews of eleven apps. Three habits kept coming up, so Redraft drops each one.
1 in 3 of those reviews said they had to pay before they could try.
Pay first. Find out later whether it works.
Every conversion is free and complete: the whole document, with no watermark, and you can share or save the Word file. There’s no limit on how many you convert.
1 in 8 were about a charge nobody expected, or a plan that was hard to cancel.
A weekly subscription that keeps renewing.
Redraft has no plans, no trial that turns into a charge and nothing to buy inside the app. It can’t charge you by surprise, because it can’t charge you.
Many apps send your file to a server to convert it.
Your document, uploaded to someone else’s server.
Redraft does the work on the phone itself, so your document is never uploaded and there’s no account to create. It’s also why Redraft can be free: it has no servers to pay for.

One in ten of those bad reviews was about a conversion that failed or did nothing, and others were about text that came out scrambled. So Redraft does one job, and aims to hand back a document you don’t have to fix.
Text in reading order
Paragraphs stay paragraphs, in the order you read them.
Fonts, bold and italic
The typeface and the emphasis of the original.
Headings
Titles stay titles, so the document keeps its outline.
Lists
Bulleted and numbered lists stay real lists.
Tables
Ruled tables come back as tables, with their lines.
Underlines
Underlined words stay underlined.
Blank lines to fill in
The lines for a name, a date or a signature are kept.
Headers and footers
The ones that repeat on every page, with their page numbers.
Pictures
Pictures stay in the document.
Scanned pages
Read with your iPhone’s own text recognition.
Redraft works best on documents made of text: contracts, résumés, forms, letters, reports and statements. These come out less well:
Trying costs nothing. Convert your own file and see how it comes out.
Free
Every conversion
No catch
Nothing to buy

Based on the App Store pages and reviews of the PDF converter apps we looked at in November 2026. Not every app does every one of these.
Yes. Every conversion is free and complete: the whole document, with no watermark, and you can share or save the Word file. There’s no limit on how many you convert, and nothing to buy inside the app.
There isn’t one. Redraft converts on your iPhone, so it has no servers to pay for, and it shows no adverts. On first launch it asks whether you want to share usage statistics and crash reports, which aren’t linked to you. You can say no, and the app works the same.
No. Redraft has no subscription, no trial and no purchases of any kind, so there’s nothing to cancel.
No. Redraft converts on your iPhone and doesn’t send your document to any server. Converting doesn’t need an internet connection.
Yes. Pages that are pictures of text are read with your iPhone’s own text recognition. Clear scans come out well; faint ones, less so.
Documents made of text: contracts, résumés, forms, letters, reports and statements. Heavily designed pages, handwriting and faint old scans come out less well.
Redraft makes a standard .docx file. It opens in Microsoft Word and in other apps that read .docx files.
Redraft asks for the password, then converts the document.
