Adobe Acrobat Reader Reviews & Product Details

Adobe Acrobat Reader makes it really easy to open, view, and interact with PDFs without any disturbances. I especially like the ability to highlight text, add comments, and fill out forms directly within the document. The layout is clean, the tools are easy to find, and everything works smoothly even with large files. It's also great that I can use it across different devices and pick up right where I left off. I use Adobe Acrobat Reader regularly for my personal and professional works. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some key features like editing or converting PDFs are only in the paid version, which limits what you can do for free.

It used to be quite good and fast, and by default, it supported all kinds of infinite PDF forms, many of which specifically require Acrobat Reader. I relied on it for tasks like commenting on papers and signing documents - it was my go-to tool for these purposes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Acrobat reater has become increasingly intrusive with constant prompts to 'sign up and get all the features.' Since Adobe jammed AI in the reader, it loads slower and each time I open a document forces me to look at the features I don't need (instead of work with the document), such as asking if I want AI to summarize my documents - They are documents to work with, not basis for AI slop-summary.

And it annoys with reminders about benefits of subscription to their AI cloud service. I do not want any AI features forced on me. I refuse to subscribe to Adobe Cloud, partly because Adobe is so persistent with their AI, and also because I am concerned they might use my documents, some of which are confidential , to train another AI all for someone to figure out how to fish out training data from AI back.

Large files can sometimes take a bit longer to upload or render. The mobile app interface could be more responsive, and pricing may be a barrier for small teams or freelancers.
