It serves me well overall, especially the ability to easily sync my bookmarks, outlines, and annotations across devices (iPad and MacBook).Two issues that have come up for me:(1) It would be great if the iPad version had a sort of “zoom lock,” so that I could more easily rest my palm on the screen while making annotations with Apple Pencil. This app has been vital to my routine as a graduate student for the last year and a half. Bravo to the Readdle team! Congratulations on many excellent products backed by a superior customer experience! Keep up the good work! With every update PDF Expert only gets better. Another time I wrote them because I couldn’t figure out how to do something & they wrote me back as if they had nothing better to do than help me. On the next update lilac was there! Now, of course, there are plenty of color options. And I don’t know if it was just a coincidence but early on there was only a deep purple highlighter so dark to be almost unusable so I submitted a request for lilac. And talk about customer service! If only all companies had their finesse! I’ve had to contact them 3 or 4 times with questions & not only do they write back promptly but the tone of the response is thoughtful & friendly. Originally I bought PDF Expert to study & archive periodicals but it has become an integral part of my iPad life: keeping all of my scanned bits of paper & recipes organized, filling out online forms, even doing creative projects. There was a learning curve in the beginning but after that I’ve had nothing but positive experiences. įor over 6 years I’ve been using this app & it has been a fantastic experience. I can fill out any form by entering text on the appropriate line even if it was not originally meant to be filled out online. (Have not made a form that has to be filled out - never had the need, so I can’t comment on this capability). I have merged up to 4 PDF documents into one new document. It allows me to move pages in a PDF document (sometimes page 1 needs to be page 3 - easy to move). Type or draw on the PDF document, then email the edited copy. I get PDF reports that I need to fill out, and this application makes it easy. I get several faxes a week (via eFax) these are PDF files and I can send directly to PDF expert, mark them, physically sign them (on screen) and re fax. This application is the primary reason I purchased an iPad. Very essential during these pandemic times. I was disappointed when I found fillable form creation was not a feature. Another factor, wish this application had the ability to create or edit fillable forms. Please take me back to 90s Word graphics. Looking forward to more collections of stickers, specifically stickers that I can insert text into. Love the bookmark feature! This is a great tool. Love the option to have a couple documents up at once. The annotation feature is my favorite, I enjoy how easy it is to make a paired down outlines for studying. I do see the favorite tab and that is okay. Yes I have a half a dozen options now two clicks away. Instead of having it layer under more that two clicks (or touches of my pen). for an example a custom color palette that consisted of more colors, like 10-12, palette to be locked and saved on my toolbar instead of changing back to default. Currently providing a rating of 4 stars because I want more custom interface personalizations. Perfect software and device combination for my court case brief annotations, and digital textbooks for school. I use the pro version of this application on my iPad with an apple pencil. A “more flexible” subscription plan doesn’t help, as I will not purchase a subscription. My request is for a purchase option, whereas you currently only allow subscription-based option, which I, and I imagine many like me, would never do, although I would be willing to pay a considerable amount to purchase the app, it’s currently not an option for any amount. UPDATE-REPLY TO DEVELOPER COMMENT: Thank you for your reply what I’m requesting is the ability to purchase the app outright and permanently, for whatever it’s price is, and NOT to purchase a subscription in order to be able to use it, no matter how flexible. It’s being pushed currently as it’s more profitable, but exploitative to customers, don’t encourage it. Don’t give in to this unfair concept of software as a service, instead of a product, which it is. Please add an option to purchase the full version of the app outright, rather than a subscription-only model, to which I, and many like me, would never agree, no matter how good the app itself. By 5 years, your app has cost 250USD, and by 10 years, 500 dollars. I’ve been using Goodreader, for example, for years and years. However, this “subscription” model where you are essentially only renting out the app, is exceedingly unfair with the customer. I would gladly pay whatever you feel your software to be worth to own it.
