When it comes to sharing photos (of objects, people, or documents), we have different methods of doing it. The first thing to avoid is to use WhatsApp, because compress images so much so that, if it is a document, we will not be able to read the text if we enlarge the image.
The images can be attached by email, however, this is not the best option since the recipient will not be able to follow the order of the images if it is, again, a document. The solution, transfer photos to PDF.
If you want to share photos from your iPhone or iPad in PDF format, we show you the best apps to convert photos to PDF.
To consider
As I mentioned above, there are many applications available in the App Store that allow us to convert images to PDF format, do not perform this action on the deviceInstead, they upload it to their servers to send the converted document to us later.
Although most of these claims claim that the documents they are sent encrypted to their servers and that they are returned using the same encryption method, no one assures us, as they claim, that once we downloaded the files, they were automatically deleted from their servers.
The funny thing is that most of them, they are not free,
In the following list of apps that I show you below, I did not include any of these apps or at least by the time of this article’s posting, December 2021, they’re doing the entire process on the device. It never hurts to read the description to be sure.

Scanner Pro
Scanner Pro is one of the applications more comprehensive when creating PDF documents from our camera or photo album. This application, which is available in two versions and is one of the most complete that can be found in the App Store. Behind are the guys from Readdle (same developer as the Spark email client).
With Scanner Pro, we not only can create PDF documents from any image, but also includes a system of text recognition and allows us to protect with a password
In addition, it includes a recognition system that scan the edges of the document to remove them in the conversion and allows us to export the images in black and white, so that the final file size is smaller and easier to share.

If the price or functionality of Scanner Pro is out of your budget, you can use the PDF Scanner – Scan all app, an app completely free this allows us to convert all the photos we have stored into PDF format, as well as use the camera itself to create new documents in this format.
Like Scanner Pro, PDF Scanner detects the edges of the document To eliminate them in the conversion, it allows us to apply gray filters to make the document as clear as possible, it is compatible with several photographs and it is compatible with iPhone and iPad.
The PDF scanner has a Average rating of 4.7 out of 5 stars possible after receiving over 3,500 reviews. The only downside of this app is that it recently included some banner ads. If they could be removed by making an in-app purchase, that would be ideal.
