Save photos as PDF on iPhone and iPad using the Files app

Files lets you quickly create PDFs. However, the photo must be saved under Files. So, if you already have images here, continue with the following steps. If they are in Drive, Dropbox, One Drive, etc. you can see how to enable these third-party cloud services inside Files.

Or, to copy the pictures from Photos to Files: Select the images inside Photos → tap Share button → Save to Files.

Once that’s out of the way, here are the steps to create a PDF from Photos on the iPhone.

Open Files and locate the image.
To convert a single image into a PDF: Long press on the image and choose Create PDF.
To convert several images into PDF: Tap More (three dots inside a circle) from the top right and tap on Select.
Now, tap multiple photos. Once done, tap More from the bottom right and choose Create PDF.

Files will make a PDF out of those images. It will get saved in the same location as the original pictures. You can see our full guide on using Files to copy, move, or share this PDF.

We hope this guide helped you convert photos to PDF on your iPhone or iPad. All three methods are equally viable, but my favorite one involves using the Books app. With this method, the PDF is created quickly and safely saved there for future use.

You can also use third-party apps like PDF Expert (image to PDF conversion is a Pro feature).
