However, it's very finicky about trying to email or text the file to anyone, including myself. It sets up the mail/msg very easily but often the Send is grayed out and and I can't figure out how to make it ready to send either as an email or a msg. But, it's free and I've gotten WAY more than my money's worth. Highly recommend it ### 5/5 — PDF Converter 5-Stars *2023-06-06* Readdle PDF Converter is my second most favorite add-on app. My favorite add-on app is another Readdle app, called Scanner Pro. I have and use about four Readdle apps frequently—they are excellent. You really should get them. That said, I’m not a fan of Readdle’s Spark email app—it’s OK, but to me, Spark is not a five star app. In closing, I highly recommend both Readdle PDF Converter and Readdle Scanner Pro. I mention both here because they work super well together. Try to get them both, if you can. Thanks, Readdle. ### 5/5 — Makes everything so much easier! *2023-03-01* I absolutely recommend this app to everyone! You can turn those important docs and pics into PDF format in a jiffy! There are so many different ways to use this app, which gives you the abilities to track and do things that are more of a priority than others! I would have forgotten how or where old documents are if it weren’t for this app! So EASY 2 use! ### 2/5 — Won’t Print *2022-12-21, version 2.3.15* I’ve had this app for years. I don’t believe I ever tried to print a document with it, but today I tried to print one document, and it totally ignored me. The document did not print at all and I tried several times. The document is only one page and one sentence long so I know it’s not the length of the document that is the problem. Is there anything I can do? I am trying to print on an iPhone X iOS 16.2. Some help would be very much appreciated. Thank you. ### 4/5 — Simple but effctive *2022-08-10, version 2.3.15* I use it all the time. It turns almost everything into PDF instantly. I do wish it had a way to arrange files into folders, and a way to delete or rearrange pages. I usually convert things into PDF and then use a different app for the rest. It doesn’t have a lot of functions, but it does what it is meant to do very well. ### 4/5 — Great app and so close to perfect *2022-02-18, version 2.3.15* Overall this is a great app. It converts almost anything to a .pdf and allows be to print, etc. very easily. However, it's very finicky about trying to email or text the file to anyone, including myself. It sets up the mail/msg very easily but often the Send is grayed out and and I can't figure out how to make it ready to send either as an email or a msg. But, it's free and I've gotten WAY more than my money's worth. Highly recommend it. ### 5/5 — Nice app. Works well (now). *2022-02-18, version 2.3.15* I tried to use this app several times a while back, and couldn’t get it to work. So I gave up on it. Recently I was deleting apps I don’t use, and was about to delete it, but then decided to test it again. It works perfectly now. Working on an iPad, I convert webpages I want to save as PDFs to reader view, and then use this app, with excellent results. After the conversion, it allows me to go directly to their app, or continue with more conversions. When I go to PDFConverter, I can process each file further, in my case, opening each newly minted PDF file in my preferred PDF reader. Whatever the problem was with the previous configuration (the previous version of this app plus the previous iPad OS, etc), it has been fully resolved. Thank you for a nice (very functional) app! ### 4/5 — Very Useful *2022-02-06, version 2.3.15* I use this app often and it has been a lifesaver for storing information needed, however, I wish there was a way to catalog stored information alphabetically or in some kind of order so that it would be easy to find an access when the time is needed. ### 5/5 — A must have app *2022-01-16, version 2.3.15* I use this app all the time for my PDF needs. Works great, easy to use. It integrates with iOS for iPhone and iPad. This is the kind of app one becomes grateful for. It doesn’t try to dazzle with goofy graphics or convoluted menu schemes. It’s really nice to be able to take an app for granted; meaning it’s so reliable you never worry about it failing. ### 5/5 — Works great *2022-01-13, version 2.3.15* This works great - as expected. Everything made by Readdle is excellent. I can’t believe others are charging $50 or more for worse functionality than what’s available here for free. Thank you, Readdle. If your reading this and don’t use Readdle’s email program Spark, you should. It’s the best email client out there IMO. ## Frequently asked questions about PDF Converter by Readdle ### What does PDF Converter do?
