I deal with tons of PDF documents in my day job to know that no matter how great your PDF reader is on your phone, it’s still not going to be a great experience. With that said, sometimes convenience plays a more important role than practicality so you find yourself annotating PDFs on the go. Xodo - PDF Reader & Annotator aims to make this process as easy and intuitive as it possibly can.

This app should be praised alone because it comes with an incredible ‘Getting Started’ document to help you familiarize yourself with everything the app can do. It’s really intuitive and will increase your productivity in no time.

The app’s UI is simple and beautiful. The menu stays out of the way while still allowing you to navigate through your files in a practical manner. The settings are laid out in an equally intuitive manner. When you’re in the PDF viewer you’ll notice how large the tools are for your convenience. My biggest gripe with using something like OfficeSuite is just how heavy the app feels. This app feels light and fast. When opening large documents like digital magazines, all of the pages loaded quickly and I never had to stop and wait for pages to render.

Xodo - PDF Reader & Annotator was actually a pretty surprising app. I had personally never heard of it before, but I can confidently say it will be replacing my current PDF reader. The tools are easy to use, the app is fast, and it doesn’t slow down or stutter like other PDF readers.
