scam of money

why does it cost dollars bro, just for pdf reflow?

Crashes on opening

Urgent fix needed!
Now fixed 👍

3 Pages ?!??

Nowhere near enough of a trial to decide if you earn my money. Do better.

A LITTLE FRUSTRATING

The app. I just bought it. But it can’t highlight. And I can’t bookmark. That makes it really less useful

O melhor que encontrei

Testei vários que prometiam fazer o reflow, mas este foi o único que apresentou resultados decentes.

Now with highlights!

Incredible I can also highlight the reflowed pdf papers and see all images and tables perfectly

If only it held your place in the PDF

The app does a very nice job reflowing the text of books and articles in PDF format. However, its usefulness is really undercut by the fact that it doesn’t hold your place in the text. Every time you reopen a PDF it takes you back to page one. If the devs find a way to resolve this it will be the perfect solution for reading long PDFs on iPhone, but for the time being the reading experience is quite limited by having to manually navigate back to your place in the text.

No Bookmarks?

Pretty nice app but a reader without bookmarks is a pretty grave omission.

Great pdf reader

Reflows really well. Has dark mode. Only pdf reflow app that doesn’t get confused with watermark text.

Only wish it had highlighting.

Works really well!!

I’m a heavy academic researcher. I process 2,000 papers for CVPR each year, so I see a lot of PDF files.

This app is great! It isn’t perfect - no app that does this can be — but it gets darn close. Figures are somehow segmented and presented separately, and it even works with two-column PDFs emitted by LaTeX! Well worth the asking price.

There are some issues. In particular, papers under review tend to have line numbers on the margins of each line, which are sometimes relieved with the text in a way that’s hard to read.

Still, I personally believe this domain isn’t really possible to self completely, and this app gets darn close

Pretty nice app, but….

Needs a way to set bookmarks, so I can come back to my location later in long PDFs.

Not practical

Waited almost a year so developer will fix bug and will update so I can give it better rating but seems developer not interested in app. App is glitchy , doesn’t perform same with all types of pdf , consider TEXT in some pages as image and in other pages as TEXT. unable to scroll few pages vertically as its fitting them horizontally. Bought it so it can be used in split window on 10.5 screen iPad but no use .

Works awesome, but unexpectedly deletes PDFs from their location

The app reflows text in a great way which makes it very easy to read journal publications that are hard to read in their two-column format with tiny text.

However,
The app deletes PDFs from where they are stored, which is an unxpected and unwanted behavior. It was difficult to recover them, and I never want this to happen. Can you make the app so it does delete my files?

Poor execution

Good idea Poorly executed. The reflow does not work with many scientific pdfs, you just end up scrolling horizontally. It doesn’t work well with the images as it crops them and you lose content. You cannot highlight the pdf. As is, the app is not worth it. The developer needs to put more effort to develop the app. I was expecting to see some deep learning for the app to “smartly” recognize the pdf structure, the app is not anywhere close to “smart”.

Amazing, but lacks pdf viewer features

Initially a 5 stars because this is soooo useful, but then realized that it is far from usable because it doesn’t remember the pdf you were reading, or where you were in the doc. It’s exhausting to reopen the pdf and wait for the processing to work and then find the page you were on every time you want to read something. I can do without highlighting but this is tablestake

Very useful app

I’m so impressed with this app! It’s well designed and very dependable! Please keep up the great work!

Totally Basic and Pretty Rubbish

If you have a PDF book to read:
1. There’s no index or bookmarks so there’s no way to navigate
2. You can’t change text size
3. Takes ages to load book
4. Indents and other formatting messes up the display so you can’t read it.

All in all pretty rubbish, but give credit to the creator as their making money for something I deleted almost instantly. Would love to get a refund but I’ll console myself on going out of my way to make sure no one else will download it.

Excellent app for reading PDF on phone

Reflowing PDF text so it’s readable on small devices is a challenge given they’re often print first and come in a range of formats. This app does a great job of it. Much appreciated!

Doesn’t work starting from 5th page

Useless application despite it’s paid. Waste of money.
