Need to black out sensitive text or images in a PDF on your iPad? FixMyPDF's redaction tool works in Safari — no app install, permanent redaction.
Open the Redact Tool on iPad
Open Safari on your iPad and go to fixmypdf.in/tools/redact-pdf.
Upload the PDF
Tap "Choose File" and pick the PDF with sensitive content from your Files app or iCloud.
Mark Areas to Redact
Tap and drag on the PDF preview to draw black boxes over the content you want to permanently remove. Repeat for each sensitive area.
Apply Redaction
Tap Redact. The selected areas are permanently removed — not just visually hidden. The underlying text data is gone from the file.
iPad Touch Tip
Use Apple Pencil or your finger to precisely draw redaction boxes on iPad. The touch interface makes marking specific words or numbers intuitive.
