HORRIBLE NEW USER INTERFACE!!
Absolutely HATE the new interface. Hate it so much so I am taking valuable time out of my day to come here and make this post. Be interesting to see if anyone with Adobe even looks at these posts.
First, I struggle to see anyway, so making TINY LITTLE ICONS MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO FIND WHAT I AM LOOKING FOR!!!
I have to hover over said icons to see what they are even for then strain to see what the pop up says.
I need to be able to advance pages, zoom, etc from THE TOP OF THE DOCUMENT NOT THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER!!!!
WHOEVER DESIGNED THIS SHOULD BE DEMOTED AND WHOEVER AGREED IT WAS GREAT AND ROLLED IT OUT SHOULD BE FIRED!!!

Adobe Acrobat has deserved to go under. Even when discarding the terrible new interface, there are so many decades old bugs and the performance is beyond abysmal. Just forget about it and let it die in peace. With or without the new user interface, Acrobat is unusable for professionals (and has been so for a decade).

Hi all, just want to update that with the feedback shared with respect to adding capability to relocate Quick action tool bar is considered and with latest updates, you can drag and re-position the Quick tool bar.
While I understand there are changes done, but here is a blog-post that can be referred to understand what all has been changed https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/learn-new-acrobat.html
thanks a lot everyone, your feedback matters a lot, pls let me know if there are any specific issues or bugs you're facing with new UI that we prioritise to fix.

@Lisa Hankey - Completely agree about the quick access toolbar. Drives me nuts that it's in the way! I got a feedback email from Adobe the other day (was shocked) and specifically pointed out that we need to be able to hide the toolbar or move it around (like we can with any other app!). Maybe I'd like it on the top, or join it to the mail tool bar. Not sure they actually listen to the feedback but at least I tried.

@Peter G
My company has switched to Foxit. Everyone says they love it. Personally, I'm still using Adobe even though I swear at it at least 10 times a day!

Isn't it something -- everybody is screaming that the new interface is a POS. and The Company comes back and says, "Sorry you don't like it. You'll just have to get used to it."
I know there are a lot of Acrobat "knock offs" out there. Can anyone suggest one?
And this Feedback forum sucks too!

@Cindy Current. Thank you so much. I wish that I found your comment earlier as I just waste the entire morning with IT trying to remedy this to no avail. We both awaiting for the approval to roll back to an older version despite we both clicking on the menu so many time and haven’t notice this feature.

I just read some other comment and saw in on that you are able to disable the new interface and go back to the old one. You click on Menu and you will find a option to Disable new Acrobat.

Quick action tool bar - Needs the option to be moved or hidden. Required for work purposes, and the current placement covers my weekly report document and financial content. Bad design and option to relocate or hide IS A MUST! Change view layout option available, but when enlarged to see the text, the tool bar is back and in the way. So basically, you can view small content, or large but cannot view information behind the floating toolbar. Very frustrating. Not useful. If I had another option to view my .pdf documents, I would not use Adobe Acrobat. I will try to revert back and remove this new design until it is fixed. Wastes too much valuable time, my employer does not pay me to fight with poor Acrobat design.
