How to sign PDF documents from your Android device

As a parent (and as an adult), I often receive PDF documents that require a signature. In this day and age, it's such a pain to try to print out the document, sign it, scan it, and send it back. Wouldn't it be much easier to just sign on the dotted line from your device and send it back, no printing required? We'll show you how to do just that so that you can sign a PDF document from your Android phone, wherever you may be.

Here you can connect various file services to Adobe Acrobat Reader, or open files from your device. I'm going to tap on Google Drive to get access to my personal files.

To comment, annotate, or sign the document, tap on the blue pencil button at the bottom right of the screen.

Note that as in this example, not all PDFs can be signed in this way; instead, they need to be unprotected, and/or have fields enabled to sign. That being said, even if a document doesn't have signature fields, as long as it's not protected, you can still write comments on the PDF.

The bottom line is that you'll have to download some sort of PDF app in order to sign the document and return it. There are hundreds of these on the Google Play store, as well as note-taking and drawing apps that let you annotate documents, but our top recommendation is Adobe's old standby, Acrobat Reader.

The default app for manipulating PDFs has to be Adobe's Acrobat Reader, but there are other options with different features.

Adobe makes some of the best editing, design, and productivity apps on the market, but perhaps the one app that everyone is familiar with is Acrobat Reader. Download this utility to your Android phone so that you can edit, markup, and sign PDF documents on the go from anywhere!

Xodo can do it all. From annotating and editing PDFs to syncing with Dropbox, Google Drive, and OneDrive. You can also save a signature for later use.

Not only does this leading app let you sign and markup PDF documents, but you can even convert text to speech! With an in-app purchase, you can unlock these features across multiple devices, enjoy night reading mode, and send PDFs as faxes.

There's a lot to look forward to with Android 11, but when will your phone actually get it? Here's everything we know!

Samsung’s new bean-shaped Galaxy Buds Live wireless earbuds have scored 8/10 on iFixit’s repairability scale, thanks to an easy opening procedure and easily replaceable batteries.

There are so many great Android phones to buy, so it can be tough to know which one to buy. These are the best of the best at each price point.

If video recording is your thing, then look no further than the Sony Xperia 1 — it offers a large screen, three great cameras, and extremely robust manual video controls.
