### 5/5 — Best PDF Splitter available

*2025-01-05, version 2.5*

Thank you so much! That would have saved me countless hours of work in the past

### 5/5 — Schnell, einfach, kostenlos

*2025-01-02, version 2.5*

Macht genau was es soll, pdf teilen, wobei die Aufteilung selbst schnell und einfach durchgeführt werden kann. Die farbige Darstellung vereinfacht das noch etwas,
Für mich genau das was ich gesucht habe.
Vielen Dank für die gute Arbeit!

### 5/5 — Brilliant

*2023-12-05, version 2.5*

Just brilliant hope the dev keep this work up. 
Hopefully seeing its be 2 years sense the last update.

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2023-05-11, version 2.5*

Great app, great UI, very easy to use, no bug, no add, and completely free!!!

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2022-11-14, version 2.5*

Elegantly does exactly what it sets out to do, which is to splice PDFs—no more, no less. Could not have asked for a better app to serve this purpose. Not to mention, it’s FREE!

### 3/5 — Still crashes on large pdfs

*2022-03-11, version 2.5*

I like the no data collected privacy report and the small size.
My main use, large pdf textbooks- avoid endless scrolling by splitting the file, it works for the first part of the book. It still crashes as a review from 2 years ago reported.

This could be a great app, but where you need it, large files, it fails.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2022-03-02, version 2.5*

Amazing app! It does precisely the task I needed. It’s simple to use and you can even export a PDF directly to this app meaning you don’t need to save a file multiple times.

And best of all it’s free! No ads, no subscription and no premium payment. Thank you very much to the developer.

### 5/5 — Works like a charm

*2021-09-08, version 2.3*

Very easy and intuitive to use. Thank you to the developer for offering this free app that does exactly what it says it will do.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2021-08-26, version 2.3*

Literally just amazing

### 5/5 — Exactly what I needed to make slices and free? Yes please!

*2021-06-22, version 2.3*

I need to tip my hat for not having a money grab and having a simple to use great app. Where can I donate money to support developers like you in the future? (broke college student) This is literally better than adobe and it is not funded by millions of dollars of research and hardly any development. Thank you!
