I wonder how many times youve downloaded a PDF document from Safari, only to then realize its a real pain to fill it out. If I jump into Files, Ive got a PDF form here, and of course, youd have to zoom into each text box, use the markup tools, and then try to scribble your name into those boxes. Its very messy and quite frustrating to do. But hang on, if I just undo this second, theres a new button on that toolbar at the bottom on the right-hand side. Im just going to tap on there a second, and what thats going to do is scan my PDF document and work out where text fields are, and theyre all going to turn blue, just like this. Then, I can simply tap onto one of those blue text boxes, and I can use the keyboard to type straight in, or I can use autofill on my keyboard. So, for example, if I tap onto my name, I can autofill Jacob, and the autofill will work as well. This means I can fill out a PDF form on my device without having to print it. If ever
