    Annotating documents is simpler to me with the smart editing and markup tools of Lumin PDF. Everything is perfect and super easy to use.

    Hi Jordan! It’s great to see such wonderful feedback from you guys. This gives us the drive to keep improving our service.
  • What I am looking for

    I like the "auto saving" feature the most because all my changes are automatically saved as I type or draw new things. No need to click "save" again and again.

    In additon to adding comments on documents I uploaded on Lumin PDF, I can also draw lines and shapes directly on them. A versatile app!

  • WORST APPLICATION

    I had an assignment I had to work on which I did and then Lumin kicked me out of the document and wouldn’t let me back in, I tried probably 40 times to re-open the document where a pop up that said “open document failed” continued to show up. My WiFi worked well. Would 100% recommend using any other application!!!!!!!

  • Literally use anything else

    This app froze up and didn’t save any of my work I did on a PDF. I took me over an hour and all that work is lost. The website is unresponsive half of the time. This is just not something you’d want to use if you want a reliable pdf editor.
  • Don’t bother with this app

    This was fairly terrible. It took forever to load, and when it did, it would immediately shut down. It took me an hour to try and open an important assignment, and finally just download and used another software for it. There are other, much better apps and softwares to use. Don’t waste your time with this one.

  • Don’t recommend

    The home screen when opening the app was blank. I couldn’t upload any docs from Dropbox , drive or my files. I couldn’t do anything at all besides attempt to sign out, upon which all the options to upload would come up behind the sign out menu. Even after trying multiple times, nothing ever uploaded.

    What worries me is that I can’t sign out even when trying repeatedly. I don’t grant Lumin to keep me logged in because I don’t want any involuntary access given to any of my files but how can I be sure of this when I can’t even sign out?

    I’ve used lumin on a pc before and it worked well enough. This app needs a lot of help.

    Hi, we appreaciate your feedback on the matter. Lumin PDF implements role-based access control in an effort to make security our priority, so you will sometimes be asked for permission to access files. Accessing certain files is also dependent on who the creator is and whether they have shared it with your group. You can learn more about sharing here:https://www.luminpdf.com/guide/lumin-google-drive/share-file/.
  • Doesn’t work

    Doesn’t even open in IOS apps after you download it
