Your Paper Wall

Just paper.

A simple sticky-note wall. Jot a thought, peel a fresh sheet, arrange it on the wall.

  • ✓Peel & jot — tap to pull a fresh sheet, type, pick a washi-pastel color.
  • ✓Speak & check off — dictate a note, or turn it into a checklist and tick things off.
  • ✓On your Home Screen — widgets keep your freshest notes in sight.
  • ✓A living wall — notes flow into balanced columns, hand-tilted with a strip of tape.
  • ✓Photos between paragraphs — drop an image right into a note.
  • ✓Yours, on your device — notes live on your phone and sync free through your own iCloud. No account needed.
  • ✓On any computer — with Washipad Cloud, your wall opens at app.washipad.com and syncs with Android too.

Free. Everything on your phone, iCloud sync included. Washipad Cloud — your wall on any computer and on Android — is $0.49/month or $4.99/year.

Why this exists

I bought a “lifetime” license once.

It was a different PDF app, and honestly a good one. Then they shipped an update, decided a few of the features I already used belonged in a new tier, and my lifetime came out to about eighteen months. Nobody stole anything from me. It just wasn’t the deal I paid for anymore.

So the everyday stuff in washi·doc is free. Editing, signing, redacting, OCR, page tools. It stays free. What you pay for is the once-a-quarter chores, not the thing you’re doing at 11pm the night before something is due. If I ever move a free feature behind the paywall, you have my blessing to be loud about it.

Questions

Does Washidoc upload my PDFs to a remote server?

No, not unless you ask it to. Washidoc edits, scans, signs and redacts on your own device, so your PDFs stay on your computer or phone. A file only leaves your device if you turn on Washidoc Cloud backup or use Convert to Word and Excel, which processes just the document you chose and does not keep it or train AI on it.

Is Washidoc free?

Yes. All on-device editing, scanning, signing, redacting, watermarks, Bates numbering, and unlimited document management on Mac, iOS, and Android are 100% free with zero ads and zero tracking. Washidoc Cloud is an optional subscription for cross-device backup, Convert to Word & Excel, and web access.

What platforms are supported by Washidoc?

Washidoc is available natively for Mac, iPhone, iPad, Android, and as a browser-based web application at app.washidoc.com.

What does Washidoc Cloud cost?

Everything you do on your own device is free. Washidoc Cloud is optional: $1.99 a month or $9.99 a year, with a 7-day free trial. It adds backup and sync across your devices, Convert to Word and Excel, and the browser app.

Does Washidoc work offline?

Yes. Editing, signing, scanning and redacting all happen on your device, so they work with no connection. You only need to be online for Cloud backup, Convert to Word and Excel, or the browser app.

Do I need an account to use Washidoc?

No. Open the app and start working. An account is only needed for Washidoc Cloud, to back up and sync your own work.

How do I cancel Washidoc Cloud?

Cancel any time in your Apple Account subscriptions or in Google Play. Cancelling stops renewal, and the on-device tools stay free.
