Is this legal?+
Removing a password from a PDF you own is legal. Removing a password from someone else's PDF without authorization is not. We only unlock PDFs when you provide the password — we never crack passwords.
What if I forgot the password?+
We can't help — we don't crack passwords. That's a feature, not a bug. Password recovery services exist but are ethically grey and often scams.
Does SnapPDF unlock PDFs free?+
Yes — 5 unlocks per day on the free tier. Pro is unlimited.
