Version 9.0 — the biggest release PDF Search PRO has had, and it is free for
everyone who already owns it.


AI CHAT, INCLUDED

Ask your documents a question in plain words and get an answer back, with the
exact pages it came from.

• Ask about your whole library, or about the one document you are reading
• Every answer cites its pages; tap a reference to open that page and check it
• AI Chat searches with PDF Search's own ranking, so it reads the pages that
actually answer you rather than the first ones it finds
• Conversations are saved, so you can pick one up days later
• Runs on your device, or on Apple's Private Cloud Compute

AI Chat needs Apple Intelligence: an iPhone 15 Pro or later, or an iPad with an
M-series chip, running iOS 26 or later. Like every other feature, it comes with
your purchase. No subscription, no in-app purchases.


A COMPLETE REDESIGN

Every screen has been rebuilt.

• A new home screen that puts search and your locations first
• Search results grouped by document, with each matching page and its rank,
and a progress panel while a long search runs
• Redesigned document rows with page previews and clear indexing status
• Rebuilt tags, bookmarks and index status screens
• Empty states that tell you what to do next instead of showing nothing
• New typography, colour and iconography throughout


SETTINGS, REWORKED

Settings have been reorganised into General, Index, Search and Text
Recognition, and now scale properly with your preferred text size.


FASTER, LIGHTER

Page previews are cached, indexing yields to whatever you are doing, and
scrolling a large library stays smooth. Memory use during indexing is
substantially lower.


ALSO IN THIS RELEASE

• A privacy manifest, declaring exactly what the app uses and why
• Many smaller fixes across indexing, navigation and the reader
