Ratings and reviews

The desktop version is absolutely terrible. It freezes when I compile several pdfs into 1 file, leaving all the work I had done to each page unsaved, so I have to start EVERYTHING over. It also will move texts/notes that I wrote on one page to another page. Sometimes, the text will not be able to edit, delete, or move back to its original page, will be sideways, or multiply into the dozens. The highlighting feature can be useless, as it will highlight an entire section rather than a few words.

Years ago, Adobe Acrobat was one of my most-used tools because it did what I wanted it to do, and did NOT do what I DIDN'T want it to. The last few years, on both desktop and phone app, it's become almost as bad as malware. Annoying, intrusive, hogs resources, and makes it difficult for me to do what I want, which is just occasionally view PDFs on my phone. Moved app to SD card and it repeatedly moves itself back to internal storage. Seeking a simple PDF viewer-only app. Sorry, Adobe. FAIL.

EDIT: Added stars after Adobe's reply. I appreciate that there's a way to disable generative AI, and the solution below works. On a single-page PDF, the AI Assistant button blocks part of the page, and I cannot read the text underneath. Please move the AI Assistant button to either the top or bottom menu ribbon. Other than that, this app works consistently and well.
