DocNavy: Docs to Markdown
Offline OCR: PDF, Word, Excel
Free · In‑App Purchases
Pro now costs less: $19.99 once, or $1.99 a month with a 3-day free trial. The free tier is unchanged — every format, every page, five documents a day.
Turn PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint and 10 more formats into clean Markdown — entirely on your iPhone, iPad or Mac. Your documents never leave the device. No server, no account, no upload.
WHAT IT CONVERTS
• PDF, DOC, DOCX, RTF, ODT, EPUB
• XLS, XLSX, XLSB, ODS, CSV
• PPT, PPTX, ODP
WHAT SURVIVES THE CONVERSION
Tables, merged cells, footnotes, headings, bold and italic, nested lists, math formulas as LaTeX, embedded images written out next to the Markdown, and — when you convert a whole folder — the folder structure itself.
SCANNED PAGES, HANDLED PROPERLY
Pages with no text layer go through on-device OCR. The language is detected automatically, so a Japanese invoice and an English contract in the same batch both come out right. Nothing is sent anywhere to make that happen.
HONEST ABOUT QUALITY
Every conversion comes with a per-page report: how many pages were read directly, how many needed OCR, how many failed, and why. Most converters hand you a file and hope you do not check. DocNavy tells you what it actually managed to read.
BUILT FOR MARKDOWN PEOPLE
Made for Obsidian, Logseq, Bear and plain-text vaults. Preview the result, read the raw Markdown side by side, then save the .md file wherever you keep your notes.
PRIVACY YOU CAN VERIFY
DocNavy makes no network requests at all. You do not have to take our word for it: turn on Settings › Privacy & Security › App Privacy Report, use the app for a few days, and the domain list for DocNavy will stay empty. The App Store privacy label says Data Not Collected because that is literally what happens.
FREE AND PRO
The free tier is the whole app: all 14 formats, on-device OCR, whole-folder conversion, zip export and the full diagnostics report — every page of every file, however long. One limit applies: 5 documents a day. Pro removes it and adds one convenience: folders you grant are re-checked when the app opens, so files added to them later convert on their own. No watermark, no upsell. Pro comes two ways: a monthly subscription with a 3-day free trial, or a one-time purchase that never renews. Either way it is a Universal Purchase, so buying on iPhone unlocks iPad and Mac too.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Pro costs less. Both ways of buying it — the monthly subscription and the one-time purchase — are cheaper than before, on every storefront.
The purchase sheet now always shows the live App Store price instead of a built-in one, so what you see is what you are charged.
The free tier is unchanged: every format, every page of every file, five documents a day.
