Tools that keep your files on your device

9 tools

Every tool here does its work inside your browser, so the file you are converting, merging or cleaning is not uploaded to someone else's server. That matters most for the files people hesitate to upload: contracts, ID scans, payslips, client spreadsheets and private photos.

For PDFs, ApexPDF covers merging, splitting, conversion and OCR, and PDFTeq Merge PDF does one job and invites you to watch your browser's Network tab to confirm nothing leaves. FileOnTap, Image Convert and Quick Image Converter handle HEIC, JPG, PNG and WebP. Photo2Text reads text from images in English, Urdu and Arabic, Free CSV Cleaner tidies a spreadsheet export, and KitBoxDev and FreeToolsBox cover developer and everyday utilities.

The trade-off is speed on big jobs. Your own device does the work, so a large batch on an older phone will be slower than on a laptop.
