Remove a PDF password

Remove the password from a PDF you can open. You need to know the password.

or drop a PDF here

  • No sign-up to start
  • Nothing is uploaded: your file stays on your device
  • Works on iPhone, Android and computer

Free to use. A free account saves your file with a Quick PDF watermark; Pro removes it.

How it works

  1. Open the PDF
  2. Enter its password
  3. Download an unlocked copy

Private by design

Quick PDF runs entirely in your browser. Your PDFs are opened, edited and saved on your own device. They are never sent to a server, so nobody (us included) can see them. It even works offline once loaded.

Questions

Can you crack a password I don’t know?

No. This only removes a password you already have.
