Smallpdf alternative — free, unlimited, private
Smallpdf is popular for quick conversions, but the free tier adds watermarks and restricts daily tasks. FreeEditPDF removes those limits by editing files locally on your device.
There is no account required, no cloud processing, and no watermark on saved documents. You get unlimited edits for text, images, highlights, page rotation, reordering, and whiteout.
