I read my daily paper (The Globe and Mail) as a pdf on my Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 SM-T500 using Acrobat Reader  v 23.2.1.26166. A couple or more months ago, it started this odd behavior where if I zoom in on part of a page, or scroll to the next page, large chunks of the page, corresponding to article layout, go blank - they display as a white screen. If I exit and reopen, all is well for awhile and then it happens again. 

 

I have tried clearing cache and reinstalling, and that did not help. Any ideas?

    Hi @SandyAlexC,

     

    Hope you are doing well. Sorry for your experience with Acrobat Reader Mobile.

     

    The issue could be due to the architecture of the file. Do you experience the issue with a single file or all the files? 

     

    Would you mind sharing the file with us to reproduce on our end? Also, a screen recording or a screenshot of what you see would be of great help to understand better.

     

    Look forward to hearing from you.

    Hi @Andy379753610a3l,

     

    Hope you are doing well. Thanks for writing in!

     

    We recently shipped a few changes to the rendering of the application for larger files.

    However, this also depends on how fast the device is able to process the document. 

     

    While this is still a work in progress, would you mind sharing the file with which you experienced the issue? This would help us test the issue in-house and work on it better.

     

    Look forward to hearing from you.
