6.<strong class="text-foreground font-semibold">Tap &quot;Merge PDF&quot;</strong> — Browser processes files locally

7.<strong class="text-foreground font-semibold">Download</strong> — The merged file saves to Files app → Downloads

For PDFs in Mail or Messages: Long-press the attachment → Share → Save to Files. Then upload from Files in ToolMasterApp.

Mobile merging with ToolMasterApp is just as powerful as desktop — the same WebAssembly PDF processing engine runs in both. The main differences are:

File access — Desktop lets you drag-and-drop from folders. Mobile uses the system file picker.

Screen space — Reordering files is slightly easier on a larger screen.

Performance — Very large PDFs (100+ MB) process faster on desktop due to more RAM. For typical documents under 50 MB, mobile performance is excellent.

For emergency merging on the go, mobile works perfectly. For frequent bulk merging, a laptop is more convenient.

"File not found" error — Make sure the PDF is stored locally, not just in a cloud preview. Download it first from Google Drive or Dropbox.

File picker not showing PDFs — Switch the file filter to "All Files" in the picker. Some phones default to showing only photos.

Merge button not responding — Refresh the page and try again. If the issue persists, clear browser cache and reload.

Download not starting — Tap "Download" and check your Downloads folder. Some iOS versions save to Files → Downloads instead of Photos.

PDF too large — Try compressing each PDF first, then merging. This also makes the final merged file smaller.
