The ability to sign documents digitally on Apple’s mobile operating system involves leveraging cryptographic techniques to associate an individual with an electronic record. This process assures recipients that the document originated from the claimed sender and has not been altered since it was signed. A common example involves a user signing a PDF document directly on an iPad using a stylus and a dedicated application.
This functionality enhances productivity by streamlining document workflows, eliminating the need for printing, signing physically, and scanning. Furthermore, it supports secure and legally binding agreements in many jurisdictions. The evolution of mobile technology has facilitated the widespread adoption of such methods, contributing to efficiency and reducing environmental impact.
