Speed

Documents taking forever to load on an IPad

Essential tool

I use this daily. For me, it’s worth the annual subscription. With a scanner and Adobe Acrobat, I’ve been able to digitize all our personal files.

Great app

Clarity on files is great! Fine print are easy to read

Still in the game with help from Acrobat

No one explained how useful Acrobat would be to me as a self employed real estate salesperson. It converts photos to pdfs, allows me to crop and combine documents and save from and to many formats.
I started working when “Desktop Publishing” was new. Thanks for helping me stay in the game.

don't purchase--total scam

I spent $70 on Adobe acrobat premium in order to edit pdfs on my ipad, which was clunky but functional--only to learn that IT DOESN'T WORK ON A DESKTOP. So in order to work on the same pdf I have to purchase a whole different desktop subscription--paying double to use the exact same tools on the exact same document, just on a different device. Total scam. I've run into this kind of milking scheme with Adobe numerous times, and it reinforces why I'll never purchase an Adobe product again.

Trouble with app.

Attempts made to try to cancel my subscription with no results. I am a senior who is not very tech. I don’t really know what this app does. Could use help.

Not for me

This app did not let me upload a photo of me for a vacation that I needed it for. In order for me to get what I needed, the app wanted me to pay for another app. I would waste money because I wouldn’t use it a great deal. This app is “Not for me”. I am also having a hard time finding the “Unsubscribe” word so I can canceled it.

Excellent functions for free

Fully covers major functions needed

Acrobat Reader

This app is easy to use. Love it!

Thanks

This is the best PDF reader app, but I wish a feature were added to open multiple files and switch between them.

Quality

Excellent

Terrible app

This app is terrible it makes it so hard to do everything has a bunch of paywalls and stops you from doing anything productive I want my money back. You can’t even send a pdf it sends a link so you never have an actual pdf for your files and if you don’t renew your subscription all your info is likely gone.

Constantly tries to upsell

I don’t want nor will I ever buy anything from Adobe. It’s basically malware at this point. Misleading and tries to get you to buy things you don’t need.

Constantly freezes

Even the paid version freezes or stops responding. Frustrating & time-wasting. Unfortunately, everybody wants PDFs.

App

Seems easy to use.

Application crashes 100% of the time

The only thing I use Adobe Acrobat for is text to speech output. It crashes 100% of the time when I try to do this.

Don’t Subscribe

If you pay them a monthly subscription and decide to cancel it they charge a $70 cancellation fee.
