1. Remove AI, remove upsells, remove feedback and focus on productivity

   This is a business critical app that costs a lot of money (as part of the CC subscription). I want to open PDFs quickly, review them, close them and move on with my work. Instead, every time EVERY SINGLE TIME I open a PDF, you ask for feedback - PLEASE RATE THIS 1-10 HOW LIKELY ARE YOU TO RECOMMEND TO A COLLEAGUE?... then another window pops up that completely disables the app (can't even resize the application window) that tells me about all the new eatures you've added and you hide the close button so I have to hunt for it.

   Then when I've closed all Acrobat windows and try to move a PDF in File Explorer, it can't be moved, because, SURPRISE... Acrobat is still running. Open task manager, and there are 12 Acrobat processes running, even though Acrobat is not open anymore. After manually end-tasking these processes, I was finally able to move the PDF.

   JUST STOP. I pay for the app. That should be enough. I don't want AI, I don't want upsells, I don't want popups, I don't want fancy options, I don't want to recommend this to colleagues, I just want to open PDFs and do my job efficiently, and at the moment, this application is an absolute neusance and is debilitating to efficiency.

   Please PLEASE remember that this is a business-critical app. It's not a Barbie doll that requires pushing, makeup and marketing - it just needs to open PDFs and be fast about it. No popups, no AI, no nonsense. Or at least give me the ability to turn off all the nonsense and toggle to "work mode" (currently, to disable all this nonsense, you have to click through 20 preference screens, and even when I've disabled everything, including the AI, you STILL show the me the AI, and you STILL show me popups and upsells.

   PLEASE STOP.

2. Remove AI features and halt all efforts to integrate generative AI into products.

   Remove AI features and halt all efforts to integrate AI into products. It is useless. It makes your products worse. It has immense negative consequences. NO ONE WANTS THIS.

3. Enable support for Microsoft Purview (MPIP) sensitivity label encryption in Adobe Acrobat Sign

   We are requesting Adobe to enable native support for Microsoft Purview Information Protection (MPIP)–encrypted documents within Adobe Acrobat Sign cloud workflows, as currently files protected with Microsoft Purview sensitivity labels using Azure Rights Management cannot be uploaded, rendered, or processed for signing, forcing organizations to remove encryption and thereby weakening their security posture; this creates a critical enterprise gap where organizations must choose between maintaining compliance and secure data protection or enabling essential business processes such as legal, financial, and HR document signing, and therefore we recommend implementing Microsoft Information Protection (MIP) SDK integration for secure handling of protected content to allow seamless signing while preserving encryption, access controls, and auditability.

8. Accelerate Native ARM Acrobat version for Windows

   Come on, Adobe. Where is the ARM native version for Windows? It's now crucial for many businesses transitioning to ARM devices that they can rely on a version of Acrobat that isn't slow. You must stop depending on the emulator to run Acrobat and release a native version to fully utilise the advantages of ARM architecture. It's been four years since you promised to release a native version - maybe we should just give up hope and start looking for software that does support its customers' needs.

9. Unable to Delete Objects While Editing

   As of today, I, and several other people using this program at work and on their home computers, can no longer edit objects. I believe this is a bug as I was able to do this for years up until today. I am able to select the object but unable to delete it with the delete key or right clicking and selecting delete. Nothing happens.

   The only solution I have found to delete an object is to:
   1. Go to View>Show/Hide>Navigation Panes> Content
   2. Click content icon in sidebar to open hierarchical object tree
   3. Locate page to edit, click through listed item

   Interestingly, the object I am trying to delete come through as "path" and they are deletable from the object tree.

10. listen to all of your users and remove AI. No one wants it, ever, for anything

    Hey, try listening to all of the users of your services and remove AI. Admit it: you got played by some billionaire into buying AI and you can't square yourselves to acknowledge it's a bad investment. Fire the dummy who pushed it, take the loss and move on. No one wants AI. Remove it.

11. I miss the Acrobat that just opened the file and did the work.

    I know competition, software development, and dealing with the public is hard, but I've been waiting for Acrobat's 2025 "give them so many popups that they realize how valuable we are" tactic to go away and it's just not happening. It looks like my windows machine is caught up in a war for which app is going to be opening PDFs, and I'm sad that y'all are going through that, but incessantly pestering of your paying customers just isn't the way. Some days it feels like an early 2000s infected web browser with the 'feature' ai and sharing popups. I miss the Acrobat that just opened the file and did the work. Sometimes, I'm opening these files up in front of people, and it feels like I'm using a free account with ads, even though I'm a paying customer personally and through the companies I work for.

12. Disable Your AI

    Your AI is not allowing me to do my job as efficiently as possible. The constant pop-ups are frustrating and interrupt my work. I do not need everything I am looking at to be summarized. I do not need everything I am looking at to be rewritten. I do not need your AI assistance to interrupt me when I am working. Allow people to disable this. It is so frustrating and so many other people are also frustrated by it. Please start listening to your customers.

13. Fix Editing Issues in Data-Heavy PDFs (EV Battery Reports, Logs, Tables)

    Editing structured PDFs in Acrobat is still frustrating, especially for real-world documents like EV battery reports, diagnostics, and technical logs.

    Trying to update simple things like values in tables, charging data, or performance metrics often breaks formatting, misaligns content, or requires rebuilding sections manually. For documents that are updated regularly, this becomes a constant pain.

    Acrobat should handle these use cases much better.

    Key improvements needed:

    Proper table-aware editing (not just text boxes)
    Stable formatting when updating numbers or data fields
    Easier editing of repeated report structures
    Better handling of technical layouts without breaking the document

    As more industries rely on PDFs for ongoing reports (like EV battery data), this isn’t a niche problem anymore—it’s a daily workflow issue.

    Right now, editing these kinds of PDFs feels unreliable. It should be precise and predictable.

14. AI Features

    I'm so disapointed in this roll out of AI features. It completely bogs down Acrobat. Every time I go to edit text, something very simple, it has to generate a whole new menu and even ask me if it wants it to create an image, every. single. time.

    I've disabled it multiple times and it keeps coming back. You can tell there are new things running in the background tied to the menu, help, and AI Assistant.

    Acrobat used to be one of my favorite platforms, I could just about do anything in it. Now I can barely do anything in it.

15. Stop the Annoying AI Popups – A User’s Frustration

    As part of my daily workflow, I spend hours reviewing technical drawings in PDF format. These documents require my full attention and careful analysis, so any interruption is extremely disruptive. Unfortunately, the constant popups from this program, insisting that I “summarize your PDF using AI,” have become a major annoyance.

    I want to make it very clear: I do not intend to use AI for my work. My company’s policy strictly forbids it, and I value maintaining compliance and confidentiality. Despite this, the software repeatedly interrupts my workflow with suggestions that are not only irrelevant but also intrusive. Each popup breaks my concentration, slows down my productivity, and makes an already meticulous task even more frustrating.

    I sometimes regret having downloaded this program. What should have been a helpful tool for viewing and managing technical PDFs has turned into a source of constant irritation. I’ve started exploring alternatives that respect my workflow, don’t force AI suggestions, fun games, and allow me to focus on the task at hand without unnecessary distractions.

    Overall, while the software may be suitable for casual users or those looking for AI-assisted features, it is completely unsuitable for professionals like me who require a distraction-free environment. I sincerely hope the developers offer an option to disable these popups in future updates—or I will have no choice but to switch to a more user-friendly solution.

16. How is it possible to make it worse with each update??!???!

    Stop forcing this useless 'feature' on me.
    I don't want to use, see or interact with any AI features. I can read my documents myself — it's crazy, right?
    I really enjoy how slow and buggy the reader has become just because of this nonsense.
    Stop, let me remove it entirely. It should be an option!

    Its great to see that i am not the only one complaining about this.

17. Feature request - OCR for Indian Languages

    Indian languages are used by 1/6th of humanity. It would be really helpful if major Indian languages such as Marathi, Hindi, Gujarati, Bengali, Punjabi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, Odia, and Sanskrit had the OCR feature. There are many 3rd party OCR softwares for some of these languages but if it was integrated into Acrobat, it would also make searches, editing, and other things easier for users of these languages.

19. Get rid of buggy AI so the program is useful again

    You can't perform simple tasks in the program anymore. You try to flip multiple pages so they appear in the correct direction and the program closes. You try to save a file and the information needed is blanked out with another bug. You try to use the stupid AI and it takes several minutes with each page.

    I'm working for a large company with brand new computers. There is no issues with the internet connection. This is the only program that continuously crashes trying to do the bare minimum of features.

    This is precisely why no one wants AI. It's the stupid Microsoft Paperclip fiasco once again. No one wants pop ups all the time. No one wants or uses any of these features. All they do is create more issues for the features you want to use. I've been converting documents to Microsoft Word to be able to use basic features. I've been opening documents in Edge just to search for terms. The search feature no longer works at all.

20. Old UI was Better

    Basically the old Adobe Acrobat Reader UI was significantly better and it continues to get worse. I often hop from PC to PC and every time I need to reinstall Reader I have to go and hunt down the settings to change everything back. It's taxing. Obnoxious. Here are the most important key changes that I have to make every time:

    1. The toolbar used to be docked at the top of the screen with tools like select, highlight, page navigation (back, forward, page up, page down), zoom, etc. Now it is a floating pane. I need it docked at the top.

    2. Page navigation tools including TOC and bookmarks used to be docked on the left side of the app. Now it's not there. I need it docked left.

    3. More tools used to be docked on the right side of the app like Export PDF, Edit PDF, Create PDF, etc and I could collapse it so I didn't actually see it. Now it is replaced with some kind of page navigation pane with "Edit, delete, or reply to comments", "Add, delete, or go to a specific bookmark", page thumbnails, next page and previous page and zoom. I need it the other older way.

    4. The old app interface had File, Edit, View, Sign, Window, Help in the top toolbar with Home and Tools in a toolbar just below that with the open files as tabs next to them in that same toolbar. Now there is just a Menu button with a bunch of options and a home button and the open files as tabs next to that menu and home button. I need it the old way.

    There's more too but this where I have to start over each time. It's awful. Why did you one day just decide the way everyone had been using it for years needed to be changed? And now I have to keep changing it back and have been doing so for years and I'm sick of it.

    And while I'm at it, remove any traces of AI from your products. Didn't ask for it. Don't need it. Don't want it.

    Basically the old Adobe Acrobat Reader UI was significantly better and it continues to get worse.
