User Reviews

Users find PDFSearch to be fast, reliable, and ad-free for searching English text in PDF documents, saving them significant time. However, the app struggles with non-English languages like Urdu, Hindi, and Persian, limiting usability. Multiple reviewers report crashes and the inability to keep files open, which hinders smooth usage. The app only allows searching one file at a time and lacks features to select folders or browse recent files. Despite these drawbacks, many appreciate its core searching capabilities and consider it superior to alternatives.

Pros

Efficient and fast at searching words within PDFs, especially long documents.
No ads, providing a smooth user experience.
User-friendly interface with search results showing pages and highlighted words.
Saves time compared to manual searching in PDFs.
Considered one of the better apps for PDF searching when other apps fail.

Cons

Limited language support - primarily works only for English, with poor or no support for languages like Urdu, Hindi, and Persian.
App instability issues such as crashing or closing PDF files unexpectedly.
Inability to search across multiple files or folders in one operation; only single file or one page search at a time.
Lack of handy features such as a recent files bar or copy and share functionalities for searched text.
