User Reviews

Users praise GoodReader for ease of use, a feature-rich toolkit for PDFs and documents, strong offline storage, and solid organization. It is widely seen as reliable and well-engineered with good search and support. However, multiple reviews cite concerns about the shift to a subscription model, stability/crashes on some iOS versions, and widget/iOS integration problems. Overall, it remains a capable, long-standing document-management tool with noted pricing and reliability caveats on newer devices.

Pros

Very easy to use and reliable
Rich feature set for PDFs and documents (annotation, signing, encryption, file management)
Strong offline/local storage and robust file organization across multiple file types
Long-standing, well-engineered app with responsive support and updates
Excellent search capability and powerful organizational tools

Cons

Subscription pricing model replacing a one-time purchase, which many users dislike
Stability issues and crashes on certain iOS versions or after updates
Widget/iOS integration issues (blank icons, limited background/run options)

Please do no popup ads while I am searching for documents. Why is it that companies think they can force ads onto paying customers. I’m okay watching ads when using freeware, but not for apps I’ve paid for. Bad form.

I’ve been using GR for about a decade now. I’ve never had any problems, until this horrible update. Zooming-in by double-tapping is annoyingly inaccurate now. Some document outlines don’t expand anymore. Moving a document into a folder by dragging it now opens the folder after the move (didn’t ask for it), at the very least it should be a toggle-able option. I know you want to improve your product but don’t try to fix what’s not broken and don’t reinvent the wheel when it rolls perfectly. What a bummer.
