Opening a PDF in WhatsApp is a common task and generally very simple. When someone sends you this type of file, you’ll see it in the conversation as a document. To open and view it, simply tap on it. WhatsApp includes a basic built-in viewer that lets you flip through the pages directly within the application.

If the PDF won’t open, check your internet connection or ask the sender to send it again, since the file may have been corrupted during sending.
