"it seems you have permanently disabled file access for this app. Open settings and grant permission." but: there is no "file permission" in settings for this app. Very bad.

Not perfect yet but I give it a 5 because it keeps improving both on android and macos and it's a really solid app with impressive performance. Please add an option for manual saving, when annotating books in the cloud is not desirable to constantly trigger uploads of big files.

In IOS devices, for this application, Multiple tabs function and link feature works well whereas in Android multi tab feture is not there. Also, link function doesn't work well. Developer team, kindly do the needful changes.

Just looking for something to view PDF docs stored locally on phone as well as GoogleDrive. PDFs do render nicely. The user interface however, is odd, making it confusing to use. The menu "External files" is really the SD Card. Once you figure that out, it's easy to find your document. Viewing a pdf launches a separate app window, and the original window launch point changes, returning to a home view...huh? Back up from there and app exits...gah. "Recent documents" is always empty.

The app that does the job. Kind of wish it was easier to leave text annotations on the side of pages though. Not notes, actual text. Process a bit convoluted. But definitely better than the competition.

My search for a free pdf viewer is over!! I needed a viewer for reading books. One that supports bookmarks and tables of content. This does without burdening you with ads or required registration. It is intuitive to use and fast. I looked at least a dozen other viewers, including all the major players. PDF Viewer Pro wins by a mile!

App keeps crashing every few seconds. I came across PDF Viewer Pro via a review (Android Authority) and it looked great. Unfortunately, it seems the app hasn't been updated for ca. 8 months, which might be the reason it doesn't work on my Android 13 phone. Uninstalled for now but hopefully there'll be an update soon.

PDF Viewer is great in touch screen mode, but lately I've been using it a lot with Samsung Dex and there doesn't seem to be a way to browse through a PDF with the scroll wheel on my mouse. I have to click LMB and drag the document to the next page every time. This gets very tiring if the document is more than just a couple of pages long.

Featured, but fiddy, tedious and ridiculously expensive "Subscription" for the pro version. Doesn't just mediascan and show PDF's, you have to locate them in folders and then it shows images as well (useless). Subscription models for stuff that isn't media (like they run a server that costs real money) is just greedy and this one is horrificly expensive. Should be $5-$10 one time purchase. The annotate / drawing is decent but the rest of the app seems a bit half-done too.

Been using it for almost a year and I can say its way better then any other PDF viewer which comes buildin in your mobile, This one let's you edit the name, or do annotations, or change the lighting to comfort eyes and it's easy to use aswell, I personally love the feature where you can turn the document background black cause it's so much easier to read that way. Thank you developers of this application.
