adds is a big headache as it does not allow for the basic app usage
horrible. how many times do I need to update. GET OFF MY PHONE.
I want to remove this from my phone
it won't stop asking me to download the new version even though I already did.
The app gets you to install it by showing you a deceptive ad. The ad says: "The PDF version is too old. If you do not update in time, the app may crash and cannot be opened, which may affect Android." Don't support scammers. If they scam you in one way, they might scam you an additional ways as well. Don't install the app, and don't use the app. Just uninstall it.
persistent advertising
horrible
I'm told occasionally to update or I won't be able to use 🤦🏾 what is a PDF and what is its purpose? I'm slowly learning and I don't understand
not good
negative
scam
very very bad
so annoying didn't want to update too many popups want to delete it but all my storage cause of this damn update
don't download! This continues to pop up.. if you download then you'll be asked to download multiple other apps. MISLEADING!! Should Not be allowed.
Starts off with a lie, says the current PDF app is too old, if you don't update in 3 days PDF may not open. This app is all about excessive advertising.
annoying
bad
Don't uh share my data!
unable to remove this unwanted app from my phone and it interpheres with everything, impossible to use my phone a lot of the time. hell and total cauchemar.
I don't want this program
Very difficult to get rid of. Persistent, in ya face and tied to some equally insistent advertising, including the ubiquitous Chinese retailer Temu. Thankfully, I managed to find the ditch button.
hard to get done
I have virus' due to this app
irritating
Too many PDF Readers
Too tedious
I enjoy being creative with this app for pictures but why does it try and scare you into downloading to update? and then your phone its bogged down ? I couldn't open it either! so I deleted the installed app?
it us installing properly
a constant repeat of signing in again and again only pausing for more ADVERTISING!!!!!!
