Step-by-step guide

How to sign a PDF on your phone (iPhone or Android)

No printer, no scanner, no app store. If a contract lands in your email, you can sign it from your phone’s browser in about a minute — and the file never leaves your device.

What you need

Just your phone’s browser (Safari, Chrome — any) and the PDF, from your Files app, an email attachment, or cloud storage.

Sign on your phone in 5 steps

  1. Open the editor on your phone

    In your phone’s browser, go to amigopdf.com/edit.

  2. Load the PDF

    Tap Open PDF and pick the file — from Files (iPhone), your file manager (Android), or a downloaded email attachment.

  3. Draw your signature

    Tap Sign, then sign the pad with your finger. Redo it until it looks right.

  4. Place and size it

    Tap Use signature, then tap the signature line. Pinch the corner handles to size it.

  5. Export and share back

    Tap Export — the signed PDF saves to your downloads, ready to attach to a reply.

Tip: getting the PDF from email

Tap the attachment to download it first, then choose it from Files / Downloads inside the editor. When you’re done, attach the exported copy to your reply.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to install an app?

No — it runs entirely in your phone’s browser. Nothing to install, no account.

Does it work on both iPhone and Android?

Yes. Any modern mobile browser works — Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Samsung Internet.

Where does the signed PDF go?

To your browser’s downloads — the Files app on iPhone, or the Downloads folder on Android.

Is a finger-drawn signature acceptable?

For most everyday documents, yes — laws like the U.S. ESIGN Act recognise electronic signatures. For high-stakes contracts, check what the recipient requires. This is general information, not legal advice.
