    They recently updated their app because they didn’t want to feel left out of destroying the environment, all so that I can maybe understand something 1.3 seconds faster than I normally would. Easiest app deletion ever - thanks PDF Expert!
  • I have to pay more?

    This is a decent app. For what it’s worth I basically use my iPad to read PDFs. I do a lot of reading academic works, such as journal articles and books with a lot of citations. I hate to say these critical things, because I’ve used the app for years and I hope these things can be amended so that they could allow the user to customize the features that they really use. 1. The highlighting, underlining and annotation of the document: I only use a few items of the numerous choices of marking up or annotating the document: underlining, highlighting, making a box to emphasize a paragraph, maybe putting in a comment by typing in a side note, adding an exclamation or question mark, and putting in a mark by drawing on the pdf (if it’s not set up for using the underlining). However, there are so many different options of what to do… I wish I could eliminate the “strikeout” and “AI explain” as it just adds an extra button for me to accidentally push. The text of the different choices is all in a line of very small letters. 2. Having the option to draw on the PDF sequestered in the “annotation” section is cumbersome to do this every time you need to write on the document. 3. Having the scroll bar on the right side of the document doesn’t really work as it is easy to accidentally touch it and accidentally move to another section of the document. If you’re not being attentive to what page you’re on you will have to search for where you had been reading. 4. When you search for an author or a title of the work sometimes it doesn’t come up even though you know you have it somewhere because you had been reading it. It’s bizarre but sometimes it’s possible to find it and sometimes not. 5. When you have to rename the document you have a little box to type the new name in it. And if the file name is too long, you can’t see what it was called in the first place. If you have the file names scrolling, this is distracting and too much visual stimulation. Please just make the boxes big enough so that we can see the whole file name. 6. If you have enough files you can quickly be overwhelmed at how these files aren’t able to be organized properly because of #5. And it doesn’t help when it’s easy to duplicate the same documents when you don’t know where to find the original document, because of #4. And because of the “little box” problem, it is just impossible to properly account for all of the files; you don’t know what files are really what they are if you can’t actually read the whole file name. The iPad is a good device but it’s not a computer with a big enough screen, and it doesn’t have the capabilities of a finder window which can open multiple windows to organize files. So it’s necessary to streamline the organization of the files. Please find an answer to this.
  • Do not want so-called “AI”!

    I will not be updating this app anymore. I don’t want anything to do with LLM trash. Stupid tech industry. Stop DOING this to everything!

    Anytime I even move a text box the whole thing resets and I have to wait 10-30 seconds before any other action can be taken, even moving the form for further review while I wait is not possible. Anytime I write a word starting with “fi”, it separates the “fi” from the rest of the text to its own text box. I then can’t move the text box or copy and paste without a need to edit “fi” back into my words. One text box crossed another text box and it merged the 2 boxes into some weird jumble. Couldn’t separate to copy and paste, or even read the words to just type again. I’ve spent more time correcting issues from the app than on my actual work itself. If I weren’t paying for this, I’d give 4*, but given I’m spending money to waste a lot of my time, I’m giving 1*. If you wanna charge money, the bugs should be minimized and not as big a nuisance as they are
  • Why no one time purchase?

    I own PDF Expert on my Mac desktop computer, and it’s a great application. Why did this otherwise amazing company have to release the product on iOS that has an outrageous yearly fee that never ends? I would happily pay a reasonable one time fee to have a good app for the rare occasions that I need to create or manipulate PDFs on my iPad. But paying $50 a year until the end of time? No thank you.
  • Duplicative in functionality.

    I installed the PDF expert app projecting it to accent the pre-existing purchase with having a subscription in the Documents app also made by Readdle. Unfortunately it seems that these two apps are basically mirrors of each other in programming and design. I will see if there are any added features with a subscription that would be worth the purchase however it looks highly unlikely as it functions exactly as the documents app.
  • Excellent readability

    For two days and then stopped turning pages in connection with pageflip firefly. Of course you never know whether it’s the device or the app, one developer will point the finger at the other. Anyway it’s not working so can’t recommend it.
