Just like the version on Mac, the Preview app on iPhone lets you handle basic photo edits and PDF changes with ease. You can:

When you open the app, you'll see simple options like New Document or Scan Document. Tap the small Files section at the bottom to browse your phone's stored content. The interface feels like Apple's previous screenshot editor, so it's instantly familiar. You can tap the three-dot menu for advanced tools like background removal, which saves you from downloading extra editing apps. If you open a PDF, Preview automatically detects fillable text boxes and lets you add your signature, perfect for signing forms or agreements on the go.

After scanning your pages, you can easily save, rename, or share your document directly from the Preview app using these steps.

If you're on Android or Windows, you can do many of the same things using tools built into those platforms.

The exact toolbar layout may differ depending on your version.

These tools give you far more flexibility than Edge if you regularly edit, organize, or sign digital documents across devices.
