About this app

Build a professional resume in minutes — then export it as a clean, recruiter-ready PDF.

NovaCV is a resume builder and CV maker that works entirely on your phone. No account, no sign-up, no internet connection, and no ads. Your CV never leaves your device.

CHOOSE FROM 24 RESUME TEMPLATES
Six template packs, each designed for a different kind of job hunt:
• Essentials — clean, ATS-friendly resume formats that any recruiter can read
• Student & Entry-level — made for first jobs, internships and graduate applications
• Modern — two-column layouts for tech, marketing and startup roles
• Creative — bold, portfolio-style CV templates for design roles
• Executive — restrained, senior layouts for leadership positions
• Technical — developer-flavoured resume formats for engineering roles

Every template comes with six accent colours and three font choices, so two people using the same layout still hand in different-looking CVs.

BEAT THE ATS FILTER
Most applications are read by software before a human sees them. Paste the job description into the built-in ATS keyword checker and NovaCV shows you your match score, which keywords you already cover, and which ones are missing — so you can fix the gaps before you apply. The whole check runs on your phone; the job post is never uploaded anywhere.

A GUIDED EDITOR, NOT A BLANK PAGE
Fill in one section at a time and the resume builder handles the layout:
• Personal details and profile photo
• Professional summary
• Work experience with achievement bullet points
• Education
• Skills and languages, with proficiency levels
• Projects, certifications, awards and references
• Custom sections for anything else
Reorder any section, and watch the live preview update as you type.

EXPORT AND SHARE
One tap turns your CV into a paginated PDF you can email, upload to a job board, or send over any messaging app. Your resume is saved automatically as you work.

COVER LETTERS TOO
Write a matching cover letter in the same accent colour and export it as a PDF alongside your resume.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Everything is stored locally on your device. There is no cloud sync, no analytics, no advertising SDK, and no account to create. If you delete the app, your data goes with it.

FAIR, ONE-TIME PRICING
No subscription. The Essentials and Student template packs are free forever, along with two resumes. If you need more, you buy only the part you want, once:
• Pro Functions — unlimited resumes, the ATS keyword checker and the Modern pack
• Creative Pack, Executive Pack, Technical Pack — bought separately, whenever you want them

AVAILABLE IN 8 LANGUAGES
English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Arabic, Japanese and Chinese — including the headings printed inside your CV.

Whether you are writing your first student CV, changing careers, or refreshing a senior resume, NovaCV gives you a professional resume format, an honest ATS check, and a PDF you can send with confidence.
