A free mobile PDF reader

PDF Reader is a productivity application developed by Moenwa for mobile. As the name suggests, this free software allows you to read PDF documents from your smartphone. It comes with a simple interface, allowing you to open and read your PDF files easily.

Unlike other free PDF readers for mobile, PDF Reader has no advertisements. The downside is that it does not have many useful features. There is no option to zoom in or change the orientation of the page. There is a go-to-page function, but you cannot bookmark the page. The texts are also small and hard to read. 

What does PDF Reader offer?

The first thing users will notice about the PDF Reader is its simple interface. With this, you can easily open and read your PDF document. Upon launching, it will display a list of all the PDF files stored on your device. By default, the titles are arranged by date. However, you can sort them to your preference in the settings options. You can also save them to your favorites list.

Opening the file is as simple as tapping the title. PDF Reader offers fast loading, even for multiple-paged documents. However, users should know that, unlike Adobe Acrobat, this app is only used for reading files. There are no helpful tools that you can use, such as annotation, highlighter, and comment tools. You also cannot use the app to sign and fill out documents.

Users will also be disappointed to know that the app does not have the basic tools to enhance their reading experience. The texts in the documents are too small, with no option to zoom in and out. Moreover, while there is an option to jump to a particular page, you cannot bookmark it. With this, you are back to page one whenever you open the document again.

Is the app good?

All in all, PDF Reader is a document management app that works as advertised. It allows you to read PDF documents without ads interrupting you. However, while it comes with a simple and intuitive interface, it lacks the tools to enhance your reading experience. Even the basic ones, such as zoom and bookmark, are not available. Sure, it is a handy app to have, but there are better choices.

Your review for PDF Reader
Softonic

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
