Open your PDF, press × on pages to delete or ↻ to rotate, then save.

The short answer
Open a PDF and every page appears. Press × on any page to delete it (you can restore it before saving), ↻ to rotate it a quarter turn, and drag pages or use the arrows to reorder them. Then press Save edited PDF. Kept pages keep their quality, and editing happens on your device with no upload.
How it is calculated
Pages are not re-printed. The pages you keep are copied in the new order into a fresh PDF, and each one gets the extra rotation you chose (90, 180 or 270 degrees). Text stays selectable and searchable.
Worked example
Press "Try a sample file" to open a 5-page PDF with a blank page and a sideways page:
- Press × on blank page 4; it shows "Deleted."
- Press ↻ on page 2 until it is upright.
- Press Save edited PDF.
A 4-page PDF in the order 1, 2, 3, 5, with page 2 turned 90 degrees.
