For someone who is a little less adept with technology, this can be a lifesaver. Maybe you&#8217;ve got an important meeting this Friday and need to sign some documents, but you need to do it from your phone.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You may do more typing on your phone than you realize. Texts, emails, and even tweets are written on smartphones; so it makes sense to know how to add signatures to your texts and emails. Signing a document electronically is the 21st century equivalent of pen to paper. Whether you want to sign a contract, a mortgage, or just want to add your name to an image \u2013 there are plenty of ways to do it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Well, if you have the right apps on your phone, you can do just that. If you\u2019re interested in knowing how you can take advantage of your iPhone in signing documents, I&#8217;ll tell you everything that you need to know below.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How To Sign a Document on iPhone<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">iPhone is a multipurpose device, and it can do much more than just make phone calls or send texts. You can also use it to sign documents. If you routinely deal with very huge amounts of papers, an electronic signature tool is an excellent choice. Due to all the added capabilities, this can be a better choice for bigger firms and organizations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Depending on the document&#8217;s format (PDF, Word, picture, etc.) and whether it was saved to your phone or was an email attachment, you have a few choices. Because it comes pre-installed on all iPhones, the iOS Mail app is frequently chosen by users. Gmail offers signature capabilities as well. Users have access to extra capabilities through apps like Adobe Acrobat and PandaDoc.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An complex platform like PandaDoc, which offers comprehensive tracking, signing certifications, and storage options, will probably be preferable if you frequently handle big amounts of documents.There are a lot more, but we\u2019ve provided you some of the most used methods of signing documents on iPhone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The following are the most typical methods for signing documents on an iPhone:<\/span><b><\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Sign using Adobe Acrobat<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Sign attachments using iOS Mail app<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Utilize a document management program like PandaDoc or DocuSign to sign<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Sign a Document and Scan it using iPhone Notes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Sign using Adobe Acrobat<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using the Adobe Acrobat app for the iPhone, you may download PDFs and sign them. The advantage of this approach is that it offers extra features for editing documents. If you have the Adobe Acrobat app installed on your iPhone, you can use it to sign documents. Adobe Acrobat is a popular program for reading and editing PDFs, and it offers electronic signature options as well. It will require a subscription, but there\u2019s a free trial available.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To sign using Adobe Acrobat:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Open the document in Adobe Acrobat and tap on &#8220;Fill &amp; Sign&#8221; located at the right corner of the screen.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tap on &#8220;Add Signature&#8221; and create your signature using your finger or an Apple pencil on the touchscreen.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adjust and place your signature where you want it on the document.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tap &#8220;Apply&#8221; to save and add your signature to the document.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Sign attachments using iOS Mail app<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the document is sent to you as an email attachment, you can also use the pre-installed iOS Mail app on your iPhone to sign it. This method also allows you to send the signed document back as an email attachment, rather than having to save and share it through a different method.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To sign an attachment using the iOS Mail app:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Open the email with the attachment and tap on the attachment to open it.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tap on the tool icon located at the top right corner of the screen and select &#8220;Markup and Reply&#8221; from the menu.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tap on the signature icon (a squiggle line) located at the bottom toolbar and create your signature using your finger or an Apple pencil on the touchscreen.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adjust and place your signature where you want it on the document.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tap &#8220;Done&#8221; and then &#8220;Reply&#8221; to send the signed document back as an email attachment<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Utilize a document management program like PandaDoc or DocuSign to sign<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are several options for apps that offer electronic signature features, such as PandaDoc and DocuSign. These programs usually require a paid subscription, but they offer more comprehensive document management options. These can be useful for businesses and organizations that handle large amounts of documents on a regular basis.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To sign using a document management program:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Open the app and locate the document you want to sign.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tap on the signature option and create your signature using your finger or an Apple pencil on the touchscreen.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adjust and place your signature where you want it on the document.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Save and send the signed document through the app or export it to share through a different method.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Sign a Document and\u00a0 Scan it using iPhone Notes<\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have the document in physical form, you can use iPhone\u2019s Notes app to scan and sign it. The Notes app allows you to use your finger or an Apple pencil on the touchscreen to create a signature, just like with the other methods mentioned above.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To sign a scanned document using Notes:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Open the Notes app and tap on the + icon located at the top right corner of the screen. Select &#8220;Scan Documents&#8221; from the menu.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scan the document using your iPhone\u2019s camera.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tap on the tool icon located at the top right corner of the screen and select &#8220;Markup.&#8221;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tap on the signature icon (a squiggle line) located at the bottom toolbar and create your signature using your finger or an Apple pencil on the touchscreen.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adjust and place your signature where you want it on the document.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tap &#8220;Done&#8221; to save the signed document in Notes.\u00a0 You can also export and share it through a different method if needed.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b>Conclusion<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you can see, there are several options for electronically signing documents using your iPhone.
