Frequently Asked Questions
Can I fax from my iPad without downloading an app?
Yes. Open Safari on your iPad and go to mFax.to. Upload a PDF or photo, enter the fax number, and send. No App Store download needed.
Does iPad have a built-in fax feature?
No. Apple does not include a native fax app in iPadOS. You need a third-party service like [mFax.to](https://mfax.to) to send or receive faxes from your iPad.
How much does it cost to fax from an iPad?
mFax uses a pay-per-use model — you only pay for what you send, starting at a fraction of what retail stores charge per page. No monthly commitment required.
Can I receive faxes on my iPad?
Yes. With an mFax.to account you get a dedicated virtual fax number. Incoming faxes arrive as PDFs in your inbox and you get an email or push notification when one arrives. See our [guide to receiving faxes online](/blog/how-to-receive-fax-online/).
What file types can I fax from iPad?
mFax.to accepts PDF, DOCX, JPG, PNG, and TXT files. PDF is recommended for the best print quality on the recipient's machine.
