  1. Please add the Zoom Lock feature and built in orientation change feature. Adobe Acrobat lacks these two features to be a fully featured reader, just believe me.

  2. Hello,
    we faced a problem with Adobe Reader on Android devices, starting with the version 17.5, and also existing in the current version 18.2:
    A red rectangle appears, and covers the objects behind it.

    Steps to reproduce the issue: open the attached PDF file with Acrobat Reader Android. Reader Version: 17.5, 18.2

    Expected result: A user graphic with beams and bars is show in the bottom part of the PDF (compare by opening the same PDF on Windows or with other PDF reader on android)

    Observed result: This user graphic is covered by a red rectangle.

  3. Why don't you give an option to open every pdf in the landscape/portrait mode from the settings of the app itself. Leave it for the user to decide. At times user wants to open only pdf in landscape mode but use the phone in portrait mode, without everytime going to change phone settings of rotate on/off. You guys deserve 5 stars. :)

  5. Dictionary is a very important tool, and in pdf readers its necessity increases.
    When we select a word ,along with other option meaning option should also be there. Or the brief meaning should marquee on the header of the page. This is important cause ,a reader needs to shift to other dictionary apps and sometimes forgets in what context he was searching for it. And again and again it becomes a hectic menace. Reading would become a log more easier with this new feature. And even complex literature could be read and ASSIMILATED wigh ease.

  6. Aside from the annoying auto viewing experience, each time a PDF is reopened, after having switched to continuous view, the app does not save this last used option. It defaults back to swipe view. Previous versions allowed for this.

  9. The option of reading a PDF is missing in the android version . Why don't you add this , it will be really helpful from a user perspective. Most of the learning materials are in PDF and it will be really easy to listen , rather than reading. This will really help used to learn in the travels where you can't read with the movement of the vehicle.

  10. Searching for a word in ebooks with 1000+ pages is too slow. A search index needs to be maintained in the device cache.

  11. Before the update it showed e.g. [ Result 4 of 20 ]. Now it doesn't anymore.

    Would be nice to get this back.

  12. The embedded search indexes are not supported/used. This makes searching unpractically slow, and also just really really slow on android devices, where it could be near instantaneous by using the index that's already there. The indexes have been around for years. Why is this standard and great functionality not supported on the android version? It obviously can't be very difficult to add it.

  14. When I'm reading, if I scroll up, the toolbar shows up and that's really annoying when it comes to reading, please fix, this bug didn't use to happen in the old version.

  15. Primary suggestion...
    A VERY large number of organisations distribute their CAD drawings in PDF format. These drawings contain layers and these layers can flow through to the PDF.
    The desktop PDF viewer allows users to turn these layers on and off (very handy, paticularly where the drawing contains lots of detail) but the mobile viewers do not.
    It would be very beneficial for mobile users to also have this functionality. It could be argued that with the smaller screens on mobile devices it would be even more beneficial than on the desktop.

  16. Hello developer of PDF reader :

     

    I have some feedback about your app here :

     

    I'm using this app for years now. I need it for showing chords and lyrics on my tablet (android) while playing music.

     

    The app works fine and good but there's one thing what should be improved :

     

    When you open a pdf file the menu shows up and it won't hide automatically after 3-5 seconds. Everytime you need to touch the screen again to hide taskbar and this is bothering. It takes to much time.

     

    Xodo pdf works perfect and…

  18. Hi Acrobat Reader team,

    I am having issues viewing the pdf files located on my SD card. I have recently switched phones and when going to the Local Tab, I can't find the files on my SD card. These are musical pieces which I need and Acrobat reader is really helpful on opening these type of files. Though there is an option to open these files using Google Drive PDF viewer or Dropbox PDF viewer, I would still use Acrobat Reader as I am used to it. Let me know how to fix this. Thanks!
