Today Adobe Reader for iOS devices was released. While the app doesn't exactly bring any new features that weren't available through a host of third party apps, its nice to see that Adobe has finally released their official Reader app for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch.

Adobe Reader is widely used to open PDF files on our computers. It is perhaps the most user friendly PDF reader out there. The fact that PDF format is preferred by individuals, companies, corporations, schools etc all around the world, there's a constant need for us to have access to a good PDF reader. Almost everyone who lives and breathes in the 21st century has an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch and by releasing the official Reader app for iOS devices, Adobe has made sure that people don't rely on third party apps for opening PDFs on their devices, or even Apple's iBooks for that matter.

Adobe Reader app for iPhone, iPad or iPod touch consists of all the general features you would find in a typical Reader app. You will be able to open PDFs saved on your device, from a web page or from your Email. You will be able to set bookmarks, search text by type. You can also print pages from the PDF file on your iOS device through an AirPrint compatible printer.

The Adobe Reader app is also capable of opening and displaying PDF files encrypted using AES256 Encryption and LiveCycle Rights Management. Furthermore, those using this app on an iPhone or iPod touch can now flip between pages by touching the corner of the screen while those who use it on an iPad will have to get accustomed to continuous page scrolling. The UI of Adobe Reader for iPad seems slightly better than Adobe Reader for iPhone or iPod touch primarily because the iPad has bigger screen real estate which allows an enhanced reading experience.
