Comments on Write on PDF for Android

★★★★★ Works for the most part on my Note 8. Considering it hasn't been modified or updated since 2016(? What's w that?), it might explain why it has problems opening some types of PDF's, like those w the Adobe symbol. Or those which apparently have been modified by another PDF program I'm assuming since some I had modified aren't even showing up. And I'm assuming Samsung isn't doing anything more w this program since, as I mentioned, they've done nothing since 2016.

★★★★★ Works so well with my Android type use & even on Windows with my "Link to Windows" turned on, on my Samsung Note 10

★★☆☆☆ No option to create multiple text boxes or use a font size smaller than 8 so if you're trying to edit a document with fields that don't all neatly line up with the enter key or with small fields it's useless. It's also incredibly difficult to position the text box so the text lines up properly when the text goes invisible while you're moving the box and the entire box disappears if your thumb presses in even slightly the wrong place.

★★☆☆☆ Help me uninstall please, ANYONE, because App store won't let me. I have a Galaxy 8(I know it's ancient but still works fine.I'm a single mom working+MANDATORY OT. Had to put finishing college degree on hold, NO GOVT SUPPORT, NO CHILD SUPPORT FROM VIOLENT, MIA, EX HUSBAND HIDING FROM DV WARRANTS & SERVICE FROM CHILD SUPPORT-LAZIEST GOVT WRKRS) & desperately need space. ONLY64GB INTERNAL SPACE ON DEVICE. HAVE G1 &M1 STORAGE APPS BUT MAKING NO DIFFERENCE IN DEVICE STORAGE SPACE? NEED ADVICE

★★☆☆☆ So im doing some mgmt of my Galaxy w/permissions ive granted on my phone & I see the "Write on PDF" app accessed those permissions for managing my Files & Folder about an hour ago. Why would that say that if I never used the app specifically is what I'd love to know. But surely naming a filename in a voice recording app doesn't pertain to this sort of permissions rights?! So what on earth was this app doing with my personnel files & folders on my phone and hour ago is what I dying to know here pls
