User reviews

Abandoned App

The app hasn’t been updated in over 2 years so changes to Apple Files are not reflected. You can’t delete imported scans from the app, nor can you delete optimized versions. Looking at a few other apps by this developer, it seems he/she has stopped iOS development. Shame, this was a convenient way to optimize iPhone’s insanely large (file size) scanned PDFs.

Lacking

The app cannot edit text in documents, nor even annotate documents with overlays. It can only rearrange or insert whole pages.

Does not integrate with iOS Files well, and instead has its own browser for the app’s folder.

Must pay

This app doesn’t allow you download your altered pdfs unless you pay. It is useless.

File browser outdated

I wish the file browser feature of the app would look like (or integrate with) the native Files app, a la Pixelmator. Aside from the looks, the custom implementation leads to some bugs, such as lists not getting updated in real time. For example: I remove password security from a PDF, and I tap save (not Save As), which overwrites the original, after going back to the file browser, I notice there are two entries of the PDF I just unlocked. One blacked out and one with a thumbnail. So I delete the blacked out. I attempt to view the one with a thumbnail. It’s blank. So I close and relaunch the app. Both are gone. It turns out, because the list isn’t updated, the blacked out one I deleted was the one that already has password security removed.

SF Symbols glyphs

Please use SF Symbols glyphs so as to have cohesion across iOS and to avoid confusion as the current glyphs of some buttons used on the app aren’t clear on the functions they carry.
