I use PDFelement on my desktop and would not recommend any other app for anyone working with PDF frequently. It's the best one I have found, you edit, sign, create, search, and so much more with this app. I have been using it for over 5 years. I use the mobile app version mainly for viewing, so I can't speak on what the mobile version does, but it looks to have most if not all the same features as the desktop version. I have the yearly Pro plan, so I'm not sure what the free plan comes with.

Very disappointing experience. I bought the perpetual license on my phone thinking it would work on my desktop too, but later I found out mobile and PC licenses are separate. This was not clearly explained during purchase. Now they want me to pay again for the desktop version, which is too expensive. Feels misleading and unfair. Not recommended.

To address your concern, each single-platform license is tied to a specific operating system. This means a Windows license can only be used on Windows PCs, a macOS license only on Macs, and a mobile license only on the corresponding mobile device. They are not cross-platform compatible.

Excellent app. Versatile and easy to use but I need to edit my recent review because after the Pro mode expired and switched to the free version, a series of watermarks appeared throughout the document, making it completely inconvenient to read. It's perfectly acceptable for the free version to have usage limitations, but if these limitations go beyond what's comfortable for the reader, they become annoying. Under these conditions, it's impossible to share information properly. Thank you.

Thank you for your feedback. We provide a free trial, allowing users to explore and experience the app before making a purchase. However, it does include a watermark on the completed files or a usage limit. If you wish to save files without a watermark, upgrading to the premium version will unlock membership benefits.
