Frequently asked questions
Can you crack a PDF password?
No. Unlock PDF removes protection from documents you already have the password for.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. Dropkit processes everything locally in your browser using WebAssembly. Your files never leave your device, which also makes it faster — there's nothing to upload or download.
Is it free?
Yes. All browser-based tools are free with no sign-up and no watermarks. A Pro plan with unlimited batches, saved workflows and server-powered Office conversions is coming soon.
