Acrobat Android App acting weird

Community Beginner ,
Mar 11, 2025 Mar 11, 2025

I have created forms so we can fill them on the acrobat app. I've made sure to follow many many tutorials on form creation for use on the apps but the android version causes some very weird issues that seem to be app side related. These forms work great on the iOS version of the app and on desktop. 

First:

When you tap a text field, the cursor will show once then disappear. Text may or may not appear as you type.

sometimes when you tap a text box, the app will shoot you to the very beginning of the document (first page) which is annoying on a multi page document.

 

Second:

When tapping a text field with text already in it to add or edit your text, you get a double overlay of text that makes it difficult or impossible to find where you want to edit your text. 

I've added screenshots for both situations. These usually do not happen when using iOS to fill out a form, however I've noticed the second issue happen on iOS randomly but not often. 

The android app of acrobat is very glitchy at times. When tapping on an item that would be a checkbox, text or other fillable item, if it's below the half point of the screen, it slides what you were trying to tap up to the half point of the screen, annoying if trying to tap twice so you get the cursor and can enter text.

Hi there

 

Hope you're doing well! Thanks for reaching out and for sharing the details about the issues you're experiencing with form filling on the Android version of the Acrobat app.

Could you please let us know which version of the Acrobat app and Android OS you're using? You can find this by tapping the profile icon > About Acrobat.

It would also be very helpful if you could share a short video showing the steps you're taking and the problem as it happens. And if possible, please send us the PDF file you’re using so we can try it on our end.

Our latest version, 25.03.0, fixes a known issue with text overlays. Please update the app from the Play Store, restart your device, and see if that helps.

Let us know how it goes!

 

 

Regards
Amal
