Trash Home Screen

I pay almost 70€ a month for Acrobat, and what I get every time I open it is a trashy Home Screen full of distractions I did not ask for and cannot properly disable.

I do not need product suggestions.
I do not need tutorials.
I do not need cloud prompts.
I do not need Adobe deciding what I should “discover” today.

I need a PDF tool. That is it.

This Home Screen is noise. It slows down my workflow, breaks focus, and actively gets in the way of the job I am paying for. Worse, Adobe gives me no real option to turn it off permanently. Hiding panels is not a solution. Resetting preferences after updates is not a solution.

This feels like adware behavior inside a paid professional tool.

Acrobat is used by professionals who value speed, clarity, and control. The Home Screen does the opposite of all three. If Adobe wants a content hub, put it behind an explicit opt-in. Do not force it as the default entry point.

Respect the user.
Respect the workflow.
Respect the fact that this is paid software.

Give us a true, persistent option to disable the Home Screen entirely and launch directly into a clean, empty workspace or the last opened document.

Until then, this is not a “feature.”
It is friction I am paying for.
