Stop printing, signing, scanning, and emailing. DocFila lets you sign documents electronically — directly on your iPhone, Android, or browser. Draw your signature, type it, or upload an image. Place it on any PDF, scanned document, or contract and share instantly.
What you need to sign, send, and manage documents electronically. E-signing is included in the Free plan.
Use your finger or a stylus to draw a natural-looking signature on your touchscreen. Prefer something cleaner? Type your name and choose from multiple handwriting-style fonts. You can also upload a photo of your existing signature.
Sign PDFs, scanned contracts, images, or any document format DocFila supports. Pinch to resize, drag to position, and place your signature exactly where it needs to go — on signature lines, initials boxes, or anywhere on the page.
Create and save multiple signatures for different purposes — a formal full name for contracts, initials for multi-page agreements, and a casual signature for everyday use. Switch between saved signatures with a single tap.
Signing a stack of documents? Apply the same signature to multiple files in batch mode. Ideal for real estate closings, HR onboarding packets, or any workflow that involves signing several documents at once.
DocFila e-signatures are electronic signatures under the US ESIGN Act and UETA, and simple electronic signatures (SES) under the EU eIDAS Regulation. They are not advanced (AES) or qualified (QES) electronic signatures.
What DocFila records for every signature request:
Some documents usually should not be signed electronically — see our electronic signature legal guide by country. This is general information, not legal advice.
Add the current date, custom text stamps, and checkmarks alongside your signature. Annotate documents with notes before signing to flag items for discussion or record conditions of acceptance.
Four steps from receiving a document to sending it back signed.
Import a PDF from your files app or your DocFila library. You can also scan a paper document directly with DocFila's AI scanner and sign it immediately — no printing required.
Draw with your finger or stylus for a natural look. Type your name and select a font style. Or upload a photo of your handwritten signature. Each method produces a clean, high-resolution signature.
Tap the location on the document where you want your signature. Drag to reposition and pinch to resize until it fits the designated signature area perfectly. Add the date and any required initials.
Export the signed document as a flattened PDF. Share it via email, WhatsApp, AirDrop, or any messaging app. Keep a copy in your DocFila library or vault.
