Mac sync broken
The app is great, but in this latest update the sync with Mac app feature appears to be broken.
Constantly crashes
It’s wonderful, once the app catalogs the publications, but I have many hundreds of books I want to catalog and it only does a few at a time and then crashes. To try to get around this limitation, I got the iPad Pro with maximum RAM, and it helped some, but still crashes every few minutes.
broken and no support
this app used to be good, but now if you’re scrolling documents, it repeats pages and skips pages, and you can never see them. it jumps all over the place when you’re scrolling back and forth between pages. I can’t be confident in any of the search results anymore because sometimes the result is on a page that it just refuses to display. It just displays two of the same pages in a row, skipping the real next page altogether. it just shows the previous page twice in a row, and skipping the page with the actual result. App support is nonexistent. I’ve emailed numerous times and never even get a reply let alone an acknowledgement of problems.

UPDATE IT PLEASE
Useless. App cant even index without crashing
Used to work
App can’t even find my docs stored in itself on iCloud anymore / no support when I email & no updates in a year +
Gute und stabile Software
Habe über die letzten Jahre hinweg circa 50.000 PDF Dateien gesammelt. Manche manche der Dateien enthielten mehr als zehn Seiten. Es wurde jeder Fachbegriff, das als Schlagwort nach der Indexierung eingegeben wurde, wieder gefunden. Die Suche dauerte auf dem iPad mit M1 Prozessor. Circa 2-3 Sekunden. Ich bin sehr zufrieden.

App Crash When It Downloads From Google Drive And Index
The app is excellent overall, but I hope one annoying issue can be fixed. When I connect my Google Drive to the app, it downloads all of my PDFs and other documents and indexes them locally. I have a lot of files, and when it downloads and indexes them simultaneously, the app crashes constantly. It's really inconvenient having to reopen the app again and again. I hope this issue can be fixed soon. Thanks!

I love this App
wenn man zu viele pdfs hat ergibt die app alle möglichkeiten diese entspannt zu durchsuchen . total effizient. Danke an den Entwickler
Ottima!
Uso PDF search quasi quotidianamente su Mac e iPhone. La trovo l’ideale per ritrovare i passaggi degli articoli che mi servono senza dover cercare come un disperato tra i vari abstract quello giusto.
Generalmente il primo o il secondo risultato sono quello che sto cercando.
Se funzionasse anche come reference manager e avesse pure una specie di riassunto per ogni articolo sarebbe l’app divina, ma visto che non lo fa sono costretto ad avere i vari pdf in cartelle diverse.

Excellent!
I hope the developers keep adding features because the app is amazing. I use it to search for PDF documents, such as books, and is very accurate. Specially I like the search across books series where I can just type a few words of an event or character I barely remember (from some books ago in a series) and will search and find the paragraphs with the key words typed.

Response from developer
Thank you for your kind review 🙏
Needs keyboard support
Cmd + F for search (with Esc to cancel search), shortcuts for navigating through document / to other documents, etc.
Crashes on big pdf
Will buy full version if it stops crashing on large books pdf
Index issues
Since the last update, I can’t index a file of 165 MB. Initially it starts the process to index, then the app stops by itself.
Will not connect to cloud services
App has a bug where it will not connect to cloud services, thereby making the app redundant, as you need to have cloud services to be able to view and search cloud storage content. 2/5
Just okay
Heats the iPad Pro M2 very much
Miss the most important books in searching.
Crashes on exporting the pdf.
Not satisfied.

Key flaw
Good app but search is not good.
1) For example, you cant search phrases like “Barack Obama”. If you do it will find individual cases of each word separately rather than the phrase together.
2) It misses occurrences of words. For example if you “Marx”, the word “Marxism” will not be in the result even though “Marx” is in “Marxism”.
3) Misses some searched entirely. I have a document with certain words, I tried searching those word but this app did not detect it.

Une application incroyable
La meilleure application pour indexer tous vos PDF avec OCR intégré qui permet de trouver tout ce que vous recherchez dans votre base grâce à sa fonction de recherche. Absolument fantastique! J aimerais que les outils pour gérer les surlignages et leur export soient améliorés et complétés pour en faire l’appli absolue !!! Et tout ça sans abonnement ; un immense merci

Impressive with a couple bugs
The core search here is excellent. There’s a couple of little issues I hope the developer considers fixing - the app will index hidden folders like .Trash in iCloud folders so you end up with results you don’t want. And unlike the macOS version, there isn’t a way to order the search results by filename. Finally the macOS version provides some sort of “sync code” to enable tighter integration with its iOS counterpart, but I can’t find any where in the iOS version to add that.

It does it says it does
I had 118 PDF files that were scans of an old gazette. The website that they came from allowed you to search them but it picked up very little. I knew that the word that I was looking for should have showed up more often.
Using the default settings in PDF Search found more matches than the website. I changed the search settings and reindexed and it found more.
It is so easy and effective. I have used many Enterprise level indexing tools and even they take time to OCR etc. The time it took to index was better than I expected - especially as I was indexing on my iPhone.

Useful tool but buggy
It’s like a personal google for your documents. I used it for school and now I use it at work. I point it at office documents and textbooks PDFs, and it gives me the results I need in one place.
Unfortunately the app is faulty. Indexing will sometimes not pick up files after repeated troubleshooting attempts. Worse, pdf viewing is buggy and you will lose your view when scrolling to the next page.
