KeptCV
Design a polished CV on your phone or tablet: 26 designer themes, a live preview, an ATS-optimised mode and pixel-perfect PDF and Word export. Fully offline.
A CV that looks designed, not templated
KeptCV is a small design studio for your CV. Start from a themed template or a blank page, then shape every part (layout, colours, fonts, spacing and photo) while a live preview shows the exact page you'll export. Everything runs on your device, and nothing is ever uploaded.
.docx) file. Print via the system dialog, save to your device, or share the first page as an image..cvm file and open it on another phone or tablet. Content, design, settings and photo arrive exactly as you left them.Ready for the screening software
Before a person ever reads your CV, most employers feed it through an Applicant Tracking System (ATS): software that pulls your name, dates, roles and skills out of the file and into a database. A polished CV the parser cannot read can sink an application before anyone sees it. So every CV in KeptCV has an ATS-optimised switch. Turn it on to build for the software, or off for full design freedom when you know a person will read the page. You choose per CV, when you create it or any time from the Design tab.
What the switch changes
-
One clean columnTwo-column sidebars can scramble the reading order, so the page becomes a single top-to-bottom column.
-
Text a parser can readNo justified paragraphs, which can drop spaces when the text is pulled out, and no decorative borders or background patterns behind the words.
-
A clear, dated historyA gentle hint nudges you toward date formats a timeline parser understands, like Jan 2020 to Present.
-
Your photo stays putThe parser simply skips it, and CVs in much of Europe still include one, so ATS mode leaves your photo alone.
Export a Word file it can read
For the strictest systems, share a clean Word (.docx) file.
Whatever the CV looks like on screen, the document is always a single column with proper
heading styles, so the parser sees plain, structured text instead of a picture of a page.
Hand the .docx to the upload box that asks for one, and keep the pixel-perfect
PDF for the human who reads it next. Both come from the same content, so nothing is retyped
and nothing drifts out of sync.
Made for tablets and foldables, too
KeptCV is not a stretched phone app. On a 10-inch tablet, an unfolded foldable or any wide window it opens into a two-pane workspace: the editor on the left, a live preview of the finished page on the right, so every change lands in front of you as you type. The home library spreads into a multi-column grid, longer CVs preview as a two-page spread, and a half-folded phone can split the editor and preview across the crease. Rotate, fold or resize the window and the layout re-flows to fit, with your work exactly where you left it.
Data & privacy
KeptCV works entirely on your device and requests no network permission. Your CVs, your photo and your settings are stored locally. To move a CV to another device, you export a portable .cvm file yourself.
