The merge function would freeze after I selected pdfs to merge and tapped “open” ### 1/5 — Not a real product *2024-11-15, version 1.2.8* In order to really use the app you have to pay it’s a waste of money and a waste of time they don’t live up to what it states ### 1/5 — Nothing happned, just gave a blank page! Dont wast your time *2024-10-05, version 1.2.8* Worst app ever ### 1/5 — Terrible app, don’t use *2024-08-22, version 1.2.8* Can’t beat with this app took me a whole night to print nothing ### 1/5 — Useless *2024-08-21* It does not work. Takes a lot of time to process and then creates a file full of black pages. **Developer response:** Please write to us at pdfsplitandmerge@gmail.com and we will assist you at the earliest. ### 1/5 — Worst *2024-07-22* Nothing use with this app very very poor and worst frustrated with this app. **Developer response:** Apologies for the inconvenience, please write to us at pdfsplitandmerge@gmail.com and we’ll assist you at the earliest. ### 3/5 — Bait and switch! (Updated) *2024-04-18, version 1.2.7* This app charges you $8.99 to download and then only allows you to split/merge two PDFs for you have to pay $8.99 to unlock “Pro”!!! You’re effectively paying $8.99 for a demo. I will be filing a complaint with Apple 😡 Update 2024-04-18 Thursday: The developer has replied to my email and said that the demo application is supposed to be free and that it’s an error the demo *and* the upgrade cost $8.99. They sent me a gift card code for the upgrade. I’m setting this review to three stars and plan on updating it once I can verify that the demo application is indeed free. ### 1/5 — Bait and switch! *2024-04-16* This app charges you $8.99 to download and then only allows you to split/merge two PDFs for you have to pay $8.99 to unlock “Pro”!!! You’re effectively paying $8.99 for a demo. I will be filing a complaint with Apple 😡 ### 1/5 — This app *2023-08-16, version 1.2.6* You bite ### 1/5 — 3 Uses allowed *2023-03-11, version 1.2.4* 1. Only three uses allowed before purchase required. 2. All my pdf’s stored on Google drive and there is no option to access it from this app! 1-star trash app! Cheers! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Garbage *2026-06-30, version 1.3.5* Worst app ever. Can’t uninstall it ### 1/5 — Issue with Merge feature *2026-04-27* Tried to merge some PDF files but application was not able to merge properly and gave single black page PDF file **Developer response:** Apologies, please write to us at pdfsplitandmerge@gmail.com and we will look into this at the earliest. ### 1/5 — It is not let me spleat or merge *2026-01-27, version 1.3.3* I not split or merge anything and you want payment. I first need know how this work. ### 1/5 — Less than disappointing *2025-12-18, version 1.3.2* This software is nearly useless and has lost functionality over time. Don’t spend the money, please. ### 1/5 — No Merge *2025-09-24, version 1.3.1* Nothing in merged files. Ran out of “free trys” they “give”. ### 1/5 — waste app *2025-09-24* wont do anything unless you do payment useless app **Developer response:** Hey, Even we wanted PDFs Split & Merge to be a low in cost but the developmental and the maintenance cost of an indie app like PDFs Split & Merge force us to charge for the features, it’s a one off price and not a subscription. hope you understand, have a good day! ### 1/5 — Rip off! *2025-07-08, version 1.3.0* Bought the pro version and it can’t even merg pdfs. ### 1/5 — Not working *2025-05-03, version 1.3.0* Please refund me. This is not working and I am stress as it’s not working when I badly need it. Everytime I do Merging it says that it’s meged and downloaded but ther is NOTHING. Been trying it for days follow the instructions and still nothing. I have enough. ### 1/5 — Give away of the day *2025-01-08, version 1.2.8* Never registered my download ### 1/5 — ADS GALORE! *2024-12-20, version 1.2.8* The ads are so bad in this app, one click of anything and it’s a popup just so you can buy the premium smh ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-02-06, version 1.3.3* Worked as intended and was easy, without any login or payment needed! Absolutely amazing 🤘🏼 ### 5/5 — Excellent an super-quick *2026-01-18, version 1.3.3* Brilliant ### 5/5 — WORKED LIKE A CHARM ! *2025-10-09, version 1.3.1* this app worked beautifully ! ### 5/5 — PDF S&M *2025-07-19, version 1.3.0* After trying five different failed apps promising to get the job done splitting a password protected 47 MB PDF is when I found the answer to my file splitting dilemma. PDF S&M beat Adobe and I’m more than satisfied with the results, the app, and the project I am working on at the office. Excellent performance. ### 5/5 — Worked well for what I needed. *2025-03-22, version 1.2.9* This software was great, I just needed to merge two PFDs but didn't want to get tied up with a subscription/trial for a one-time occasion. This has two free actions before you need to make any purchases and merged a 66-page PDF and a 36-page PDF beautifully. Simple interface, straightforward operation, fast (but that might have to do with my iPad processor), no missing pages, no blank pages and all graphics intact. If I find I need a more long-term software, I’ll subscribe to this one first. ### 5/5 — Easy merge *2024-11-13, version 1.2.8* Easiest pdf merger I’ve ever used! And it was FREE! ### 5/5 — Chaudhary *2024-05-14* Best app to split large files **Developer response:** Thank you for writing the feedback, please recommend us to everyone! ### 5/5 — Good app and Excellent support *2024-04-13* App is very useful and the service provided is excellent. Thank you and really appreciate the support provided. **Developer response:** Thanks a lot for the feedback, please recommend PDF Split & Merge to everyone! ### 5/5 — Quick and easy *2023-02-02, version 1.2.4* I got my job done in few seconds of splitting the PDF files in individual pages. Highly recommended. ### 5/5 — Jazzybloo *2023-01-23, version 1.2.4* Seems to work fine.Till now no longer working buy only waste of time. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
