How to Add Page Numbers to a PDF on iPhone

Add page numbers to a PDF on iPhone without installing an app. Free browser tool in Safari — choose placement and format.

Add page numbers to any PDF on iPhone using Safari — no app download needed. FixMyPDF's Page Numbers tool lets you number pages quickly and share the result directly from your phone.

When to Number PDFs on iPhone

Preparing a multi-page document for email submission while on the go. Adding reference numbers to a scanned document before sending to a solicitor or accountant. Numbering pages in a report you received without numbers before a meeting.

How to Add Page Numbers on iPhone

Open Safari. Navigate to fixmypdf.in/tools/page-numbers. Tap "Choose File" and select your PDF. Set position, font size, and starting number using the on-screen controls. Tap "Add Page Numbers". Download the numbered PDF.

Touch-Friendly Controls

The page number settings use large tap targets and dropdown menus designed for mobile use. Position selection is a tap menu (Bottom Left, Bottom Centre, Bottom Right, Top Centre, etc.). Font size is adjusted with a slider.

Numbering Scanned Documents on iPhone

If you scan a multi-page document using your iPhone camera or the built-in scanner in the Files app, the resulting PDF has no page numbers. Add them immediately after scanning before sharing, saving you a step later.

Sharing the Numbered PDF

After downloading, tap the file in the Safari Downloads folder in Files. Use the Share sheet to send via Mail, AirDrop, WhatsApp, or any app. The numbered PDF is ready to submit or share immediately.

Accuracy on Small Screens

Rotate to landscape mode for wider controls when adjusting numeric values. Double-check the starting number and position before downloading, as re-running the tool is quick but adds a step.

Privacy

Processing happens entirely in your iPhone browser. Your PDF is never uploaded to any server — safe for personal, legal, and business documents.
