### 5/5 — No longer works in PadOS17

*2023-11-04, version 1.3.6*

RIP it was great while it lasted

edited 11/4: the sign of a great app is when the developer rises from the ashes to fix the only thing that broke so it’s whole again

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2023-10-23, version 1.3.5*

Does exactly what it is meant to do, hassle free.

### 5/5 — Does work on iPad Air

*2023-04-30, version 1.3.5*

Sometimes apps end up not working, so I just wanted to note that this app does work on my iPad Air since all the reviews look a bit old. 

One suggestion: maybe think about adding a way to get graph paper or lines in your margins?

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2022-01-19, version 1.3.5*

Suggestion: add image in the margin

### 5/5 — Brilliant!

*2021-12-03, version 1.3.5*

Does exactly what it’s meant to, simply and reliably. Wish there was a macOS app too!

### 5/5 — Perfect for the job!

*2021-12-02, version 1.3.5*

Super easy and intuitive to use, quick execution, no fuss!!! Having been looking for this for a long time! A big thank-you to the developer :)

### 5/5 — PDF Margin Adjuster that works

*2021-09-25, version 1.3.5*

### 1/5 — Please Fix it

*2023-10-24, version 1.3.5*

Was working fine until a week or so ago. Anytime I try to export nothing happens. This is the only app of its type that is completely free. Please update I need this as a student

### 1/5 — Not working on IOS 17

*2023-09-29, version 1.3.5*

It is so bad that that’s no longer working anymore on IOS 17. So bad

### 1/5 — No longer works in PadOS17

*2023-09-27*

RIP it was great while it lasted

**Developer response:** I apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced. We have recently released version 1.3.6, which addresses the bug preventing PDF exports on iPad OS17. I hope you will check it out.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on a few PDFs

*2022-09-19, version 1.3.5*

When I try to adjust a long one-page PDF, it doesn’t display the document or adjust it.

Entering this here because couldn’t figure out how to reach developer directly.

### 1/5 — Stopped working with IOS 15

*2021-10-11, version 1.3.5*

It was great until it wasn’t.

Update: Tried deleting and reinstalling the app, without success. When I try to open a PDF, it shows a blank screen. Switching modes (simple, advanced, expert) causes the app to crash. This happens on both iPad Pros I use. It only began happening after upgrading to IOS 15.

### 2/5 — Problem with exporting

*2023-10-30, version 1.3.5*

Anytime I try exporting a file that the margin has adjusted , it isn’t working. Pls kindly fix it

### 2/5 — was great while it worked

*2023-10-02, version 1.3.5*

no longer works in ipados 17, but it was great and simple while it worked

### 4/5 — Worked great but not with iOS 17

*2023-10-23*

Title explains it. Can’t export after updating my iPad

**Developer response:** I apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced. We have recently released version 1.3.6, which addresses the bug preventing PDF exports on iPad OS17. I hope you will check it out.

### 4/5 — Been using this app for years.

*2023-10-14, version 1.3.5*

I have been using this app for years and it’s superb but I do think that there is a bug in IpadOS17 as I’m unable to export it using iPad but able to export using iPhone IOS16. Hope this issue can be fixed.

### 4/5 — Great app but it breaks URLs in the PDFs

*2021-09-07, version 1.3.5*

Very easy to use and convenient but one major flaw is that it breaks any links in the document.  If the developer could find a way to fix that, it would be perfect

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Intuitive and functional

*2026-04-25, version 1.3.6*

Absolutely essential for me

### 5/5 — Use this for notability

*2026-02-01, version 1.3.6*

It just works amazingly

### 5/5 — One of the most useful apps I own

*2026-01-21, version 1.3.6*

This is truly one of the most useful apps I own. I would have happily paid for it and would 100% pay for a version that worked on Mac as well as iPad/iPhone. Most unusually in the world of apps it does something that seems to be unique - no other app offers this straightforward functionality. I live in fear of it being withdrawn!

### 5/5 — Perfect app for goodnotes users

*2025-12-02, version 1.3.6*

god bless

### 5/5 — Perfect for importing Slides/PDFs into Goodnotes for annotation. Works fluidly, and for free.

*2025-01-04, version 1.3.6*

This app is very simple to use and works simply as intended. It solves the problem I had of wanting to annotate my PDF slides or documents for school and class but not having enough space to write, such as using MarkUp or when importing PDFs into Goodnotes 6. Now, I can add exactly how much blank area or margin I want all around the page and annotate the PDF without running out of space.

### 5/5 — Recommended feature: ruled lines

*2024-10-01, version 1.3.6*

This app is great! One feature that would be great is the ability to add fill layers to the added margins. If I could make the added margins lined, it would be easier for me to take notes in the margins. This is a great app, thank you!

### 5/5 — A lifesaver for me as a student!

*2024-02-25, version 1.3.6*

This app does exactly what I was looking for, which adding margins to my pdfs so I can take my notes in the same file! It’s stable, maintained by this angel of developer and most importantly it’s FREE. Thanks soooo much!

### 5/5 — THANK GOD THIS EXISTS!

*2024-02-23, version 1.3.6*

I just spent two hours of my life trying to use free trials of GoodNotes and LiquidText and neither one of those helped like this app did! I’m so happy that I found an app that is able to adjust the margin size of my long PDF files so that I can further take notes on each individual slide. Honestly surprised that this was free. Hopefully in the future the developer can add a note taking feature so that I don’t have to transfer files from here to other note-taking apps. Nonetheless, thanks for putting this on the App Store! A real life saver for students who like to take notes on the side of the file.

### 5/5 — Amazing! So useful with Apple Pencil

*2024-01-19, version 1.3.6*

This has taken my pdf annotation with apple pencil up to a whole new level as I can finally add significant margins in my pdfs to annotate and handwrite in. I would gladly pay 2-10$ for this. Hope others catch on to how useful the app is. Thank you for maintaining it and making it free.

### 5/5 — Best software ever

*2024-01-07, version 1.3.6*

Thank you for this amazing piece of tech. I annotate a lot and this really helps me. The bug preventing exports was also fixed which I’m very grateful for!
