Out $24. *2024-03-22, version 2.0.2* This app doesn’t work with the AVP. Your ability to annotate text is limited to leaving notes. None of the other features work at all even after paying. I need to be able to read and annotate PDFs and it seems there is nothing that works with the AVP currently. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Icon say “Reader Free” *2026-07-23, version 3.2.0* Hate the icon.

The option is on the settings but it doesn’t work. ### 1/5 — ローカルのPDFファイルを開く手順すら分からない *2024-10-22, version 2.0.3* なんで iPad のPDFリーダってクラウド前提なの? 64GBモデルのユーザしかいないのかね？ ### 1/5 — Very Limited Capabilities *2024-06-27, version 2.0.3* Very Limited Capabilities.
