Organise scanned documents and PDFs in My files, on your device
My files is the library inside iEdit where every scan, import and tool result lives on your iPhone, iPad or Android phone. Files sit in categories you name and colour, with type filters, search, real thumbnails and a viewer, and nothing is stored outside the device.
Overview
Every scan you save, every file you import and every result a tool produces lands in My files. Sort them into categories with their own name, colour and icon; iEdit starts you off with Invoices, Work, Personal and Travel, and you can add, rename or remove categories as you like. Chips narrow the view to PDFs, photos, videos or documents, and search finds a file by name in any language, accented and non-Latin names included.
Tap a PDF and the viewer opens with page thumbnails, pinch zoom that is re-sharpened up to 3×, and a page editor to reorder, rotate or delete pages. Photos, HEIC included, can be rotated without touching the original, and GIFs animate. Videos and Office files are kept but not played or previewed inside the app; you can share or export them. Rename, move or delete any file, and on iPad and foldables the list sits beside the detail view.
My files is where the app's tools meet: pick a PDF here to sign, compress or convert, and the result comes back here too. Everything is stored on your device, with no account needed and no copy on our servers, so a folder of medical letters or bank statements stays where you put it; the optional cloud backup keeps a copy in your own iCloud or Google Drive. Saving to My files is free; sharing a file, or saving it to Files or your photo library, is part of Premium.

Frequently asked questions
Where are my files stored, and are they backed up to the cloud?
Files are stored on your iPhone, iPad or Android phone inside iEdit's own storage. Nothing is copied to our servers and no account is needed. If you turn on cloud backup (My profile › Cloud backup), a copy is kept in your own iCloud or Google Drive and comes back on a new phone. To use a file elsewhere, share it or save it to Files or your photo library, which is part of Premium.
Is My files free to use?
Yes. Scanning, importing, organising and viewing in My files are free, and every tool saves its result there at no cost. Sharing a file with another app, saving it to Files or saving a photo to your gallery is part of iEdit Premium, an optional monthly subscription with a 3-day free trial.
Can I watch videos or open Word files inside My files?
No. Videos and Word, Excel and PowerPoint files are stored in My files and can be shared or exported, but the built-in viewer does not play videos or preview Office documents. PDFs, photos and animated GIFs open in the viewer, with a page editor for PDFs.
