Work with PDFs anywhere — read, change, and share

PDF Reader, created by Kdan Mobile, is a cross-platform document app that makes reading, editing, and sharing PDFs straightforward whether you’re on a phone, tablet, or computer. It integrates with Kdan Cloud so your files stay accessible across devices, and it bundles tools aimed at speeding up everyday document tasks.

Main capabilities at a glance

  • Fill out forms, insert signatures, and paste pre-saved signature presets to speed contract workflows.
  • Apply OCR to extract text from images and convert scanned content into editable text.
  • Annotate with highlights, underlines, sticky notes, and freehand drawings to mark up documents like you would on paper.
  • Edit the PDF itself — modify text, replace images, and update hyperlinks directly in the file.
  • Split pages into separate documents or merge multiple PDFs into a single file.
  • Open and organize many file types — Office documents, iWork files, plain text, images, audio, and video — for reference while you work on PDFs.

How you can access and sync files

  • Pull PDFs from cloud storage services such as Google Drive and Dropbox, or retrieve them from email attachments and social media shares.
  • Capture documents directly with your device’s camera to import them into the app.
  • Seamlessly move between tablet and desktop: edits and files sync across platforms when you use the same account.
  • Sign up for a Kdan Cloud account to receive free storage (500 MB) and use cloud syncing features.

Reading experience and security tools

PDF Reader provides flexible viewing options — choose single-page mode or continuous scroll in either vertical or horizontal orientation. Zoom controls, a search box for locating text quickly, and customizable reading themes help adapt the interface to your comfort. One eye-friendly feature lets you switch page backgrounds between light, dark, sepia, or a custom color to reduce eye strain.

On the security side, the app supports password protection and watermarking for documents, and it can also open (decrypt) password-protected PDFs when permitted. Note that some security and advanced options require upgrading to a paid plan.

Upgrading: Document 365 and subscription plans

Document 365 is the premium tier that unlocks cloud-based conversions (to Microsoft Office, iWork, ePub, text, and image formats), fax capabilities, and full access to extra features like enhanced syncing and multimedia attachments. Plans differ by platform, so check the vendor’s site for a detailed comparison.

Subscription choices include Monthly, Quarterly, and Annual plans. Perks for paid subscribers typically include:

  • 1 TB of Kdan Cloud storage and cross-device access for premium features.
  • A supply of Kdan Credits for faxes and file conversions.
  • A free 7-day trial for individual plans; a 14-day trial and an admin dashboard are available for volume purchases and team account management.

Who should consider this app

If your workflow relies heavily on PDFs and you use multiple devices, PDF Reader aims to be an all-in-one productivity solution. The free version provides core reading and basic editing tools, while the Document 365 subscription unlocks the full suite of advanced editing, conversion, and collaboration features.
