## Foxit PDF Editor Reviews in South Africa

### ***** "Best PDF app"
No question. Best app for handling PDFs
-- namzyNK, 2025-01-01

### *---- "Disappointed"
I have bought this app years ago and forgot my password to restore purchases. Despite several attempts I don't receive the email with the restore link. It's not in junk or spam. No way to contact anyone at foxit. Very frustrating.
-- Stringsa, 2024-03-13

### ***** "By far the best PDF editor / viewer"
I use Foxit PDF Editor on my phone and PC and so far it has completely exceeded my expectations!
-- KrisjanBodenstein, 2022-06-06

### ****- "Very good"
The handwriting function using Apple Pencil not so good
-- SST2015, 2021-03-10

### ***-- "Still needs improvement"
I have the desktop app which I think is peerless. I was hoping that this would be just as good. 
Does not have an option to keep the screen on whilst the app is being used. If you are reading a document, the screen turns off as per the iPad settings. This is quite an annoyance. 
Reloads the documents each time you switch to another tab. I typically will have a few documents downloaded from the cloud & will be working with these multiple documents. When you switch tabs it will reload the document & you will therefore also lose the position you were reading at in that document.
-- SanTheMonk, 2020-02-03

### ****- "Solid app but the handwriting function needs work"
This is a good app and the only one for the iPad that I could find with 2-page view.

Thing is, the handwriting function makes my notes look like they were written by a toddler. The accuracy could definitely be improved upon.
-- GoitseJ, 2019-06-28

### ****- "Can't fault it yet"
Beats adobe reader in every way possible.
-- Npaidas, 2019-03-26

### ***** "Wow"
Great app.
-- Tebuhsuave, 2019-03-03

### ***** "It’s what you’re looking for"
This is exactly the reader you’re looking for.
-- @rishay97, 2018-12-15

### **--- "Can’t open the one document I downloaded it for"
Document in question is a simple password protected bill. No dice.
-- Imiago, 2018-09-23

### *---- "Useless."
Horrible. You can’t even create a new document without subscribing????? Really.
-- Philthatsme, 2017-10-29

### ***** "How awesome"
I totally recommend this to anyone who works with PDFs a lot. Totally awesome app.
-- Sfthornes, 2017-07-16

### *---- "Utterly useless"
Can not edit one single document even after going through the manual. There is no option to edit just apparently share your file or do a wireless print.
-- NicolaNoodle, 2016-10-12

### ****- "Great application, but..."
This is really a great pdf app. Very nice that cloud services can be linked to the application.  The only problem I have is when many documents are linked via dropbox or google drive the app becomes VERY slow.
-- Coolioabadash, 2015-07-21

### *---- "Latest version crashes"
All the time the latest version crashes on iPad Air - not tested properly??? Very disappointing
-- Mungop5, 2015-06-06

### ***** "Great Pdf reader and editor!!"
Great app, excellent functionality and ease of use. Everything you need in a pdf app. Best part - it's free!
-- Anon95432sd, 2015-05-14

### ***** "Review"
Very Cool
-- Loleeofa, 2012-10-20
