Bad App

It’s almost impossible to share the documents after you have paid for the subscription and given them complete access to all of your personal information and documents 👎

Latest update broke it.

Documents aren’t opening when you tap them. They broke the most basic function of the app.

Súper útil

Esta aplicación la he usado en todos los equipos que he tenido y me ha permitido disfrutar de documentos qué no se pueden editar con facilidad, de manera que me permite compartir trabajos que costaron, tal vez años hacer y pueden ser publicarlos sin sufrir modificaciones en el formato que se publicó esto es excepcional, la recomiendo muchísimo.
