Recent reviews
UPDATE: With months of emails to PDF Expert complaining of constant freezing and crashing while always referencing my purchase of their original grandfathered one-time fee app, PDF Expert just completely severed my original features that were purchased years ago before they converted to a subscription service and now challenges whether my purchase ever existed, demanding proof of purchase!
I have, today, received the following email: "...To check why the convert and merge features are no longer available on your device, could you please send us a screenshot of your PDF Expert purchase. If you bought it through the App Store, please share a screenshot of the receipt or your Apple purchase history showing PDF Expert (the lifetime/grandfathered purchase)..."
After receiving much backlash, PDF agreed years ago to honor the paid features of the original one-time fee version through an announcement made on their website.
To be clear, the “lifetime/grandfathered purchase” would have been only for features available before subscription conversion and I was fine with that.
When I attempt to restore purchase from their app, I am able to execute and receive notice of "a successful restore of my purchase" but original purchased features have now been stripped. If there was, in fact, no one-time purchase or paid subscription a notice to that effect would be stated.
I had decided before receiving this last email to subscribe to their monthly/yearly app service until reading the many current negative reviews of those with subscriptions.
I don’t want to do business with a company that employs dishonest practice while producing what has become an unstable product. Now, I just want out!
UPDATE: Will you please fix this app so I can get my files out of it!!!
PDF Expert now freezes after ten minutes of use, frees up after a period of non use to refreeze again, repeats cycle a few times and then closes unexpectedly. I’m concerned I will lose my work. Resetting iPad Pro is not helpful; software is updated. It is not useable.
There is a second major issue with PDF Expert Pro paid version that also forces me to “restore” each time I open. More importantly, the features grandfathered in that would typically return after restoring appear to be permanently disabled. I assume this is to encourage subscribing to the features I have already paid for. [I decided to subscribe on top of grandfathered in but decided not after reading negative reviews. Now, I just want out]. I don’t want to depend on unstable software and those tactics and am searching a better alternative for which I would pay three times their subscription price to somebody else.

Love this app. The only critique I have is that after a recent IOS upgrade, the split screen feature is not the same and much more wonky to use. Please bring that back!
