It is perfectly working for editing, converting and easy way of use.

### "Refusal of refund. "

April 22, 2025

1.0

I really just always struggle. The fact that they are not trying to refund me is making the experience terrible. I wish they could put effort into this, then I would actually not complain.

Pros

There is not much to like, they are becoming super expensive for things you could have done for free in the past.

Cons

The fact that they did not want to help me at all with a refund. Miscommunication on the website itself lead to me subscribing for a free trial which ended up not being one, now they do not want to refund me - and it was R2000! I will never recommend PDF Reader Pro to anybody. No app is worth that much money, and above that, they are not willing to refund.

Pros

East to edit any PDF doc without any funky delay - select easily and edit away! Convert edited file to pretty much any type of files. ORC recognizes text not only from scanned document but even from images! Lot more other features

Cons

Don't know any cons! It might take you a little time to click around and try other features and maybe read some documentation. But once you're comfortable you'll love this PDF reader!

### "Clear and professional document presentation "

May 24, 2025

5.0

Have used it when sending documents to clients - really nice format and like that the info cannot be changed within the document sent.

Pros

The clarity of the documents and ability to share. Also like being able to share without others making changes to docs.

Cons

Would love to be able to edit in documents, but that would take away from keeping items secure. Otherwise no negatives!

### "Best Tool for Online Schooling"

June 1, 2024

5.0

It was nothing but making my school life easier and even up until now since there are still online documents that are needed to be signed or edited. It is something that you know you will use for the rest of time because it is indeed best for people who are not that tech-savvy like me.

Pros

I've been using this since I was high school and more so during college since we needed to do it via online. I truly appreciate the convenience PDF Reader Pro provides especially is you are not tech-savvy like me. Also, I believe one of the best features is its capability of being able to search or filter words, you can immediately know in which part of the PDF you need to edit.

Cons

I've been using PDF Reader Pro for years and never have i encountered any problem with it, maybe it was only way back then, I couldn’t afford to get an upgrade to be able to use their other features.

### "PDF FILE READER THAN CAN DO ANYTHING"

May 5, 2021

5.0

PDF reader Pro has it all, you can delete other apps with same feature since this software has all the features you need from converting files, sharing, making documents, everything you want in just ONE APP. Ideal software if you have a low storage in your device and also high quality features.

Pros

This app allows me to edit file, annotate documents and made it easier to share files with my workmates and friends. Also, any documents are all likely compatible with this software. And it is easy to understand all application features it have. It has complete advanced features for editing and creating pdf documents, different colors for highlights, pen. Also, it is very manageable app.

Cons

It's a bit pricey for other people who's not usually using PDF reader in their daily lives and also and can't handle large sized document file.

### "PDF reader pro review"

March 10, 2023

5.0

Overall, I like the experience I've had and I'm still having with PDF reader pro.

Pros

Easy to use, and allows viewing of files satisfying in such a way that the documents integrity are never altered.

Cons

I think the fact that it doesn't allow vice versa conversion from word to PDF and from PDF to word without integrating a second party app is what I think the developers should include.

February 15, 2024

I have had a very easy and intuitive setup with PDF Reader Pro. It's made completing contracts and sending invoices very easy in my business and I am glad it integrates well with my other systems!

Pros

Works from a phone or tablet, works with Google, works through email. Makes getting the documents signed very easy.

Cons

It's an extra 'step' for most when opening the document - somtimes a plug-in has to be authorized depending on the security systems of the client.
