“Replace text”and “Insert text” tools on iPad app: any solution?

[isabeksu]

As stated in other posts as well, the iPad app lack the "Replace"and "Insert" features, which are extremely useful for editors and copy editors. 

Since Adobe doesn't provide this functionality on iPad, is there any competitor reader that allows the "Replace" and "Insert" comments in an Acrobat compatible way? With that I mean that when I open the pdf on a desktop adobe reader app, they appear as if they were compiled directly on it.

So far, I haven't found any solution, despite having tried about a dozen di apps for iPad.  I have also tried the online version of Acrobat, which unfortunately has the exact same issue...

Hello Isabeksu,

I hope you are doing well. Per the description, I understand that you want to use toolbars and layers on the iPad.

This feature of Insert and Replace is available only on the desktop version of the application.

Additionally, you may share this feature request on the below link. Sharing the feedback will reach directly to the engineering team for them to look into it and try to implement it in the upcoming updates.
