### 4/5 — 예전에 사용한 굳리더를 다시 사용하려면요..

*2022-08-18*

예전에 구매했던 굳리더를 다시 사용하려는 없어진 앱인듯..
한동안 아이패드를 사용하지 않다가 다시 사용하려는 그 앱을 사용할수록 없어서요… 도움바랍니다~~

### 3/5 — 액세스키문의

*2018-08-12*

폰을 변경하면서 기존 데이터를 백업하는데 굿리더의 경우 다운로드는 되지만 액세스키가 필요하다고 뜨고 더이상 오픈이 되지않고 있습니다. 확인 부탁드립니다

### 1/5 — More like “At Best Average Reader”

*2018-07-02, version 4.13.1*

It’s OK, but:
- why can’t it handle password protected documents, which are extremely common in an Enterprise environment?
- why can’t it handle editing and annotation of .doc or .ppt files, which would be useful for those of us who don’t have Enterprises which support offline MS Office 365 editing etc?

### 5/5 — Magic keyboard support

*2020-11-03, version 5.7.1122*

Magic keyboard support like turning pages with direction keys.

### 5/5 — READ BEFORE OPENING BIG MOUTH

*2017-11-20, version 4.12.2*

People should READ before complaining. This is an ENTERPRISE model. You get your ACCESS KEY from your IT ADMIN. If you don’t know, or don’t have an IT ADMIN, the app is not for you. Move on, buy a game, get over it. Jeez!

### 5/5 — Ios11不能更新

*2017-10-23, version 4.12.2*

更新了Ios 11就不能用

### 5/5 — Enterprise Version

*2017-05-12*

An alle, die hier schlechte Reviews geben: Es handelt sich hier um die Enterprise / Business Version. Die braucht einen Key, damit ihr Privatnutzer die nicht einfach nutzen könnt.

Das ist keine Demo/Trial oder Lite Version, sondern die Mitarbeiter Version für Enterprise-Kunden.

### 5/5 — GoodReader와 동일앱인가요?

*2016-11-08, version 4.12.2*

GoodReader와 동일앱인가요?

*2016-09-21*

在网上看很多人评价这，就来试试了

### 5/5 — Read the description before downloading

*2016-08-14, version 4.12.1*

This is a special enterprise version of GoodReader for companies. It's not a free version of GoodReader.

### 5/5 — This app not for general public

*2016-07-05, version 4.12.1*

In the description, it states that this app is specifically for "Good for Enterprise" users.

### 5/5 — Root

*2016-07-01, version 4.12.1*

Nice for app

### 5/5 — 구매목록삭제해주세요

*2016-06-20, version 4.12.1*

구매목록삭제해주세요
