Comments on Cast PDF Reader for Android

★★★★★ This is a dreary and useless app. Takes forever to load and only loads the first PDF file which I select on the TV, the rest just appear as a gray screen with a free version watermark.

★★★★★ Does what it says on the tin. Cast .pdf files to Chromecast connected TV. Easy to scroll and worked first time.

★★★★★ This APP is perfect for PDF presentations! CLICKING on the volume rocker to go to the next or previous slide is GENIUS!BUT, when I do, the slide only moves HALF WAY. It's not a clean jump. The break between the slides shows in the middle of screen. PLEASE, FIX THIS! I'm a fan! I've emailed you guys about this. You would really do a quantum leap if, like Google Slides, you could show a thumbnail list of PDFs available when searching for files...AND ALSO show the current slide on my phone screen.

★★☆☆☆ Not able to navigate storage. Just shows blank lists and cannot open anything

★★☆☆☆ Pro version of this app is not working, I couldn't cast PDF files to TV and can't find Cast option in the app. As I have already dropped a mail to the developer of this as mentioned in the refund policy. Activate Pro Version and casting option in the app for my account. Thanks

★★☆☆☆ Only first page of any PDF is cast & then it hangs, we had to disconnect & join again & repeat the same process every time.
