Open a PDF and just read it
No app to install and no account to make. Your PDF opens right here and stays on your device.
How it works
- Drop a PDF into the box or tap to choose one.
- Scroll to read. Pages draw as you reach them, so long files open fast.
- Change the zoom or type a page number to jump straight there.
Handy when your device has no PDF app
Shared computers, work laptops with locked down software, a borrowed tablet. If it has a browser, it can open your PDF here. Nothing gets installed and nothing is left behind when you close the tab.
Big documents stay quick
Pages are drawn only when you scroll near them, so a 400 page manual opens about as fast as a two page letter. Text stays crisp on high resolution screens.
Your documents are nobody else's business
Contracts, medical letters, bank statements, unpublished manuscripts. Many online PDF tools upload them to a server you know nothing about. readmypdf opens, reads and converts everything inside your own browser, so your files never leave your device.
Good questions
Is my PDF uploaded to view it?
No. The file is opened and drawn by your own browser. It never travels to a server.
Can I open password protected PDFs?
Not yet. Unlock the file in another PDF reader first, then open it here.
Does it work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. It works in Safari, Chrome, Edge and Firefox on phones, tablets and computers.
