Subscription !!

I am cancelling ALL subscription based app !! If I can’t buy it outright like I have done in the past, then I don’t want it… !
And I encourage any prospective subscribers to avoid this at all cost !! Remember, you will own nothing and be happy !! 🤬

I shouldn’t have let this app update

This garbage app used to be top-tier. They took away features just to add a sub subscription model. Stay away from this application.

To expensive

Cost way too much money for a pdf editor.

素晴らしいアプリ

高校〜大学まで6年間使い続けています、とても使いやすい良いアプリです。録音機能(挿入→サウンド)はかなり便利で、講義中に音声ファイルをスライドごとに埋め込む事ができて、復習の際とても役に立ちました。

不満点を挙げるとすると
①PDF閲覧中に表示設定を縦スクロールにしていた場合、右端のスクロールバーを誤タップしてしまいがちでかなり邪魔です。ありがた迷惑な機能なので、このスクロールバーはオプションで表示オン/オフ切り替えれるようにして欲しいです。
②ページ閲覧中に右上を誤タップしてしまうとブックマークのオン/オフが切り替わるのもやめて欲しいです(せっかくタイトルつけて並び替えしたブックマークが、たったのワンタップで無くなってしまう泣)
