What's New in PDF Reader Pro Edition®

10.1

October 23, 2026

PDF Reader Pro Edition is now ready for iPhone Duo, with layouts that adapt to every pose and a dedicated laptop-style workspace. • Made for every pose
Read, sign and edit with your iPhone Duo closed, fully open in portrait or landscape, partially folded like a book, seated like a laptop, or standing on its edges. Your tools stay within reach and clear of the fold. Fold or unfold without losing your place or interrupting your work. • A laptop-style workspace
Your page stays on the upper screen while the lower screen becomes a control deck, with every tool in a consistent position and large, easy-to-use options. Signatures, Settings, Contents, AI Mind Map and other panels open below, keeping your document in view. A keyboard tool strip keeps controls within reach while you type. • Standard and dynamic stamps
All 28 Adobe Acrobat standard stamps are now available. Dynamic stamps automatically add your name, date and time. • Page by Page reading
A new vertical reading mode lets you swipe through your document, stopping at each page. Page by Page and Horizontal reading now use the full screen when you hide the toolbars. • Easier sticky-note management
Delete sticky notes directly from each note’s menu. • Fewer interruptions and more fixes
This update also includes many smaller fixes and improvements.

Awful update

The update removes some of my favorite features, I don’t have an option of turning pages, only scrolling up/down, not swipe sideways and the highlight feature is gone. This is not an improvement. It makes my life worse! I wish I could roll back to the previous version and decline any updates.

Terrible. Update cleared all my data and logins

I’ve had this for many years paid for it. All of a sudden the latest update locked me out and I’ve lost all my pdf files. Cant access my account and no way to retrieve my username or password. No Forgot password option. Avoid this app. Don’t pay as it seems to be expire.

Not happy

I purchased this as a one off purchase years ago and now you want a yearly subscription. Stick your product

PDF READER PRO EDITION

I purchased this app when it first came out many years ago, I haven’t used any other app as this gave me everything I needed although at the time it was limited to what I could do with it but that didn’t put me off.
I stuck with this app because it is what I know (hate learning new) so I decided as a loyalty customer to take them up on the offer of £9.99 a year (not sure if it is the same for everyone) and to find out what is included but will take me time to get used to the newest functions within the app. I will see how it goes for three months to decide it I want to keep it as is. 😁

It’s Not a Lifetime License

I’ve had this app for a while. Paid for it, either a lifetime license or one-time purchase. Downloaded it onto my shiny new iPad, and…what’s this about a loyalty discount? How can something I already bought be offering a loyalty discount? Oh. I see. You pushed an update and now want a subscription fee. Yeah, listen, this whole vampiric pay forever to own nothing model is way past its expiration date and I will be deleting this app to never use again. You got my money once. I’m not paying for something you basically stole from me again. Bye.
