This rating & review is a warning from a longtime paid user of PDF Expert to anyone who wants to use it on iPad Pro to read & annotate PDF files that live in nested folders on Dropbox. Regularly I experience two bugs/problems:. First, after creating a number of favorites, the app suddenly will not access Dropbox, and I have to disconnect & reconnect Dropbox, which loses all of the favorites and requires me to rebuild them from scratch. Second, when I close out of a PDF after doing some annotations, and then reopen it, I routinely get a pop-up message telling me it’s been changed on the server & asking if I want to reload it. Again, disconnecting & reconnecting to Dropbox is a temporary solution, if at all. Beyond being annoying, these two things cumulatively create problems with workflow, particularly the inability to rely on favorites to navigate to heavily nested files. Even if signing out of Dropbox & signing back in corrects an issue, it’s only temporary, and it still requires me to spend a lot of time I shouldn’t have to spend rebuilding things. And even if Dropbox or iPad OS is to blame at some level, that still means PDF Expert is not an entirely reliable app with those devices & services in these ways. Otherwise, I love everything about the app, particularly for the subscription price, and it bums me out that I might need to go elsewhere.
