If I had more memory in my old iPad and iPhone, I would use the PDF tool more. I am a design architect turned photographer, so I use PDFs for visual documents. ### 5/5 — Ottimo *2023-08-01, version 8.10.11* Uso questa app da anni ed è l’unica del suo genere che non mi ha mai deluso ### 4/5 — Green app ! *2023-06-26, version 8.10.11* Complete application! the only thing missing is the choice of color inside (we're sick of green). ### 5/5 — Excelente *2023-06-04, version 8.10.11* Muy buena aplicación lectora de pdf ### 5/5 — Melhorou *2023-05-29, version 8.10.11* Não estava mais abrindo mas parece que sumiu o problema ### 3/5 — What happened? *2023-04-23, version 8.10.10* I’ve been a solid fan of this app for years and it has never failed me. Until now. I’m running iPhone 13 Pro Max and since the latest update (2023) the app won’t open. Now I have many years of documents that I cannot access. ### 2/5 — APP DOES NOT LOAD *2023-04-19, version 8.10.10* I bought this app as a stand alone some years ago and has been working well. All of a sudden 2 months ago it stopped working - when one clicks open it does not load. I deleted and reload it with no success. Is it still working? ### 4/5 — nahezu Perfekt *2023-04-14, version 8.10.10* Nutze es seit Jahren und ist meine perfekte App für die meisten Dokumente ### 3/5 — 在ios16.4.1上無法使用，一直停留在動畫首頁，請儘速改進！ *2023-04-10, version 8.10.10* 如題 ### 5/5 — iPhone 6s Plus *2023-04-04, version 8.10.10* เป็นแอ๊พอ่าน PDF ที่ดีสุดก็ว่าได้ ใช้งานง่ายสะดวก ติเรื่องการขีดเส้นใต้บางครั้งเขียนให้สุดข้อความไม่ได้ ถ้าสุดก็จะกลายเป็นไปเลือกข้อความอื่นด้วย อันนี้เป็นจุดเล็กๆที่ผมเจอ ส่วนเรื่องอื่นทำได้ดีหมด ข้อสังเกต การให้บริการของ Kdan Cloud มีราคาที่สูงมาก ซึ่งตรงจุดนี้อาจจะได้รับการตอบรับจากลูกค้าที่น้อยกว่าปกติหรืออาจจะไม่ค่อยมีเลยก็ได้ครับ ### 2/5 — Can not use after update the latest version *2023-03-27, version 8.10.10* What's happened ? ### 5/5 — Great! *2023-03-27, version 8.10.10* Easy to use ### 2/5 — War eine gute App, und jetzt? *2023-03-19, version 8.10.10* Die App funktionierte jahrelang ausgezeichnet. Bis letztes Jahr immer wieder Totalabstürze stattfanden. Nach Neukaufen meines Tablets wollte ich dort weitermachen wo ich auf gehört habe. Leider startet die App nur soweit , das das Logo erscheint. Dann passiert gar nichts mehr. Sie friert ein. Ein öffnen von pdf Dateien über den Dateimanager kommt zu dem selben Ergebnis. Alle anderen sollten gut überlegen ob sie das Wagnis eingehen. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ne s’ouvre plus! *2023-05-20, version 8.10.10* L’application ne s’ouvre plus et quitte! ### 1/5 — No abre la aplicación en IPhone 13 *2023-03-25, version 8.10.10* Ya no abre la aplicación con la última actualización en iPhone 13 ### 1/5 — No se inicia la aplicación *2023-03-17, version 8.10.10* Desde hace unas semanas no puedo iniciar la aplicación. Se queda bloqueada en la pantalla de inicio con el logo de la aplicación. La he borrado y reinstalado y sigue sin funcionar. ### 1/5 — App won’t open after last update *2023-03-13, version 8.10.10* When I try and open the app it gets stuck on the opening logo. I can’t delete the app and redownload it without losing all my files. I’ve been using this app for years and I’ve never had an issue with this app before. Please help! ### 1/5 — Stopped working *2023-03-11, version 8.10.10* This app stopped working on my iphone after the last upgrade, I don’t have an access to my files. ### 1/5 — No longer works with latest iOS …. *2023-03-04, version 8.10.9* Running iOS 16.3.1. Always crashes or freezes now. ### 1/5 — New Update is a Deal Breaker *2022-12-26, version 8.10.8* I have been using the Markup app to read books for years. But the new update is forcing me to switch. If I go to the multi-page option and navigate to a different page, then the pdf simply reverts to the cover page of the book. It’s very frustrating and a deal breaker for me as I have no way to go between the text and end notes anymore. If the makers are reading this then please respond or I ll have to dump the app. Sad to let go. ### 1/5 — Sick of Being Asked to Rate This App! *2022-01-02, version 8.10.0* Stop the madness! ### 1/5 — Downgrade app after purchased *2020-02-16, version 8.2* When I purchased pdf markup it has Tabbed pdf reader and Multiple themes with range of colour to choose after few month they downgrade the apk and offer these tool for yearly 365 subscriptions So i am using other app Waste of money and time..... ### 1/5 — Si cancella testo. *2019-12-25, version 8.1* Ero molto contento e soddisfatto finché non mi si è cominciato a cancellare tutto il testo di un libro in pdf che ho aggiunto alla mia libreria. Ci metto una stella perche dall’app non mi da nessuna opzione di contatto per informare sviluppatori o qualcun altro per risolvere il problema. Se non cambia nulla semplicemente cambierò app. Sono circa 10 volte che aggiungo lo stesso libro per poterlo leggere in pace dal mio smartphone. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great *2025-10-28, version 8.10.11* Wonderful ### 5/5 — Well thought out *2025-07-29, version 8.10.11* This app is very useful and easy to use ### 5/5 — Excelente *2025-05-05, version 8.10.11* Recomendado.
