Adobe Reader for iOS has been available for over a year now. But since itslaunch in the App Store, it has gotten a mere five updates. Don’t get me wrong; I am in no way belittling Adobe for the apparent underdevelopment of the app.
On the contrary, I want to point out that even as there are only five of them so far, the majority of these updates have been quite substantial. The latest one, which arrived just a few hours ago, is representative of this.
The latest update to the universal Adobe Reader app delivers a number of improvements.
The most significant among these is arguably the integration of cloud-based file storage with Acrobat.com.
With this newly added integration, you can now have your PDF documents saved and synced across your devices, including your computers, over Acrobat.com.
This is a nice step for Adobe Reader in its move toward the cloud. But I think it’s also nice to have the option to go with iCloud instead of Acrobat.com. Perhaps an upcoming update will introduce this option.
