And although information technology technically tin can read files, it was a pretty weak application. According to reports from users, they both seem relatively impressed with the new update. From Ben:

"I merely got an update for Adobe Reader pushed to my Samsung Focus (Aus Marketplace). There's no update notes on the marketplace folio, but when loading it, it has a completely new UI, and actually seems to be running a WHOLE LOT smoother. The version is at present ten.1.0, build 20220818. I did a search to encounter if i'd missed the news page of information technology, because the build seems to reveal 18th Aug, but I didn't find anything (and then sad if it'due south old news). The UI has now a white background, and 2 columns in the panorama: 1 with the standard documents, and another for recently viewed. Yous can cull betwixt viewing single folio or continuous, search text, and it has a push to return to the dwelling house page."

Reader Sertan D. also remarked at how shine information technology is as well.
