    Would I be able to create a fillable pdf form, send it to email, and open it on my phone, fill it out and send it back?

     UPDATE: We are excited to announce that we have just released the new version of JotForm PDF Editor.

    Yes, you can but you have to install adobe reader or similar apps to fill and submit the form. Without the app, you can't as the fillable PDF cannot be filled using a mobile browser. 

    Adobe has an app for both Android and IOS, here are the links:

    In addition to that, you can always use JotForm Mobile Forms to collect data through your mobile devices. It has many advanced features such as offline mode, kiosk mode, form assignment, and more. It allows you to collect data wherever you want without any restriction. If you don't have Internet connection, form submissions are saved in your devices and sync when you are connected. 

    If you have more questions, feel free to ask.
