Extremely unstable on iPhone

I paid $20 for lifetime membership and then find out that the app crashes when I try to redact information from a PDF file. After a few reductions, the app doesn’t even let me swipe the document up or down. If I saved the file and then try to read the file again the app crashes without me doing anything. I would not recommend this app to anybody. I hope they refund my money.

Suitable only for printing

This application only puts a black square over the text you want to redact. That’s suitable for printing, but the data you’re redacting stays in the PDF and can still be read if you’re sharing the your document electronically. Thus, it only works for a specific use-case (printing), and probably not the one you’re looking for.
