## Review summary

Reviews praise the app for fast, easy annotation and strong PDF editing with OCR, but major drawbacks include auto-subscription and tricky cancellation, stability issues like crashes and lost annotations, cross-device licensing with separate licenses, and missing features such as undo and forms. Overall, usability and annotation strengths are tempered by billing practices and reliability concerns; customer support is variably responsive.

- Powerful annotation and editing features (highlights, notes, OCR).
- Fast performance, even with large PDFs.
- Remembers reading position when reopening.
- Option for a lifetime/one-time purchase license.

### Cons

- Auto-enrollment into subscriptions and difficult cancellation.
- Crashes, instability, and loss of annotations.
- Cross-device licensing can require separate licenses.
- Missing or buggy features (forms not supported; undo/redo).
- Some users report unhelpful or templated customer support.
