Overview
If you need to read huge PDF, or TXT files, you've come to the right place. Faithful users of GoodReader have reported flawless performance with files over 1 gig in size; but that's only one of the many features that makes GoodReader the best app of its kind.
Within moments of downloading GoodReader, you'll be transferring files directly from your computer over a Wi-Fi connection, from the Internet or from email attachments. It also easily integrates with MobileMe iDisk, box.net, MyDisk.se and other popular WebDAV servers, and also with non-WebDAV services like Google Docs and Dropbox.
With the PDF Reflow feature, reading your documents is a pleasure because it extracts pure text from PDF files and automatically wraps words. This amazing feature fits all of the text to your screen perfectly. That means you never have to scroll left and right to read the text. For a better idea of how on-the-fly reflow works, sneak a peek at the Reflow screenshot down below.
With no bars or buttons blocking the text, you have true full screen reading. The PDF hyperlink feature allows you to quickly jump back and forth within the document. Tapping a link will whisk you across a huge PDF book in an instant, and the "Go Back" button takes you back to the page you came from. If you already know what you're looking for, the Text Search feature helps you find your way to the exact info you want in any PDF or TXT file. You can even use the 50x zoom, which gives you a better view, without distorting the image. That makes it perfect for viewing PDF maps or drawings.
GoodReader supports massive PDF and TXT files, but it can also handle all of the most popular file types. Have a look for yourself:
With GoodReader on your iPhone or iPod Touch, you can read virtually anything, anywhere. Books, movies, maps, pictures; GoodReader puts it all in a single app, right in your pocket. From the very first time you use it, GoodReader is sure to be the most used app you will ever buy.
Stay tuned, because we're always developing something new for GoodReader.
What's new in GoodReader for iPhone
- fixed the issue with a crash when using Japanese keyboard and entering a password new in v.3.2.1:
- new PDF displaying engine
- zooming/panning is a lot smoother now. However, if for some reason the new engine doesn't work for you, you can always switch back to the original engine with the switch in Settings.
- "Higher quality images" switch in Settings for PDF files. This switch produces higher quality scanned images, but impacts rendering performance noticeably. So try this switch to see which option suits your needs better.
- wireless printing: AirPrint support (iOS 4.2 or later)
- actions available without closing a file
- "Open In...", E-Mail, Print
- "Repair a PDF File" feature. Some damaged files that previously caused GoodReader to display an "Unknown PDF Error" message (and could not be annotated for that matter), can now be automatically repaired.

- accented European characters are now stored correctly in PDF notes (old damaged characters won't be fixed automatically, so you'll need to manually re-enter those characters in old notes)
