Downloaded this just to read a document I was sent and immediately bombarded with so many ads I couldn't even setup the application 🤣 Uninstalled and they can send it as a normal document lol
★★★★ Andrew Czenkusz 1/21/2026 v1.0.9
intrusive adverts all the time. Don't use it
★★★★ Erik Taal 1/18/2026 v1.0.9
This app uses deceptive advertisements with fake pop up dialog boxes stating "your version is too old". Using such methods means this app will have no useful purpose or function and will instead only show ads or perform malicious actions on your device to track you, steal details etc.
★★★★ Barbara Humphrey 1/4/2026 v1.0.9

★★★★ Rainy Day Woman Bell 12/24/2025 v1.0.9
it's stupid I couldn't understand what I supposed to do
★★★★ Allanna L 12/23/2025 v1.0.9
every time I have tried to upgrade the app it has thrown me out. I'm a middle aged woman that works in law ultimate disgrace. You want contributing members of society to bolster your ratings, perhaps let them in. very disappointed
★★★★ Jordan Lawrence 12/23/2025 v1.0.9
according to this the PDF is out dated. I have tried different ones, but the all seem to be out of date! I haven't received any ads, YET. Not that it matters considering it's outdated.
★★★★ Alaa 11/27/2025 v1.0.9
it is spam. tricked to download
★★★★ Drew Atkinson 11/25/2025
DO NOT DOWNLOAD. This app forces an add to play every 30 seconds regardless of weather or not the app is open. imagine having the balls to put an add on my home screen. one stall isn't a low enough rating for an app like this. DO NOT DOWNLOAD.
★★★★ Josh-Sonia Thompson 11/21/2025
It is lousy with ads.
★★★★ Andy Welde 11/20/2025 v1.0.9

★★★★★ Joseph Brenya 3/28/2026 v1.0.9
Too many ads and bad service
★★★★★ Aaron 1/13/2026 v1.0.9
super annoying with all the gosh dang ads! horrible experience... don't know if it works or not because a new ad pops up every single seco d I'm in the app... and when I'm not in the app, it pops up on my screen every 5 seconds... do not download!
