Too many main features which are the essence of this app can't be accessed unless you buy the pro version, I think there should be something like demo or free trial for a certain duration before proceeding to get the pro version.

Screenshots are misleading. App lets you split/merge PDFs and delete/extract pages. Everything else requires the pro upgrade. (This would be fine if they were open about it, but the screenshots above do not indicate the need for pro on any of the features shown - once installed, it's very clear.)

All the worthwhile features require the £4 PRO version and looking at the reviews, that doesn't work either. We aren't even allowed to preview the pro features before paying. What a scam. Avoid this developer.

Found this weak in so many areas. Why do Android apps all seem to have inefficient, disordered file navigation systems like this one?? And then to delete pages you can't just open the file and mark the individual or ranges of pages directly to be deleted, but have to specify by typing in page numbers without opening the file and with no previewing, etc. Extremely unintuitive and inefficient way of operating. Uninstalling.

Needed to extract some pages. After several disappointments with other apps this was quick and flawless. Just remember to rename the extracted file or it will be overwritten by the next one you create. Pity you can't access files on SD card, you need to copy them to the internal memory.

Free version works as desired. But there is no way to navigate and select files stored in SD card. It is not clear why update has removed external SD card support. Free version should also include rotate option.
