Read aloud not working/app crashes

Hi, can someone help me on how my read-aloud is working again? Whenever I’m using the app on my phone, it crashes whenever I try to use the read-aloud option, and I’ve tried everything. Please advise. Thanks.

    Hi Amal,

    Thank you for your response.

    1. I am using an iPhone 17 Pro Max running iOS 27.2. The Adobe Acrobat app version installed is 26.09.00 (20261001.161901).
    2. I have already tried the following troubleshooting steps:
    • Restarting my iPhone
    • Updating Adobe Acrobat to the latest version
    • Signing out and back into my Adobe account
    • Deleting and reinstalling the app
    • Testing with different PDF files
    1. The app crashes every time I use the Read Aloud feature. It happens with all PDFs I have tested, not just one specific file. The app closes immediately when I start Read Aloud.

    This is the first time Read Aloud has not worked for me. It was working previously, and I only started experiencing this issue recently. I have an Acrobat Pro subscription.

    1. I have also attached a screen recording showing the steps I take and the crash when it occurs.

    Please let me know if you need any additional information that may help identify the cause of this issue.

    Hi @Amiable_Wildflowere584

    I hope you are doing well, and thanks for reaching out. I’m sorry for the trouble you are experiencing with Read Aloud.

    To help us look into this, could you please share:

    1. Which phone model and operating system version (Android or iOS) are you using, and which version of the app is installed?

    2. Which steps have you already tried to fix the issue?

    3. Does the app crash with every PDF when you use Read Aloud, or only with a particular file? Did it work for you before? If so, when did the issue begin?

    4. Also, a short screen recording showing the steps you are taking and the issue as it occurs would be very helpful.

    Once we have these details, we can look into it further and share more troubleshooting steps.

    Regards,
    Amal
