At $4.99 in the App Store, some might think its pricey, but ReaddlDocs scratches me right where I itch, so to speak.
For my day job, I have to carry (and be familiar with) hundreds of PDFs worth of building plans, schematics, cut sheets and service contracts.
Now, I have a 13-inch MacBook Pro which, while being ridiculed by some, is the perfect machine for me. However, my iPad 2 is obviously much more portable, with better battery life.
ReaddleDocs for the iPad sits on my home screen, and for good reason. Using the built-in Wi-Fi sharing function, I can add files to my iPad without dealing with iTunes. The app super fast, handling large PDFs better than any app I’ve tried. The app lets me keep the same folder structure I have on my Mac, so finding files is just as easy. It really saves me a ton of time in meetings and in the field.
And unlike GoodReader, I can look at the UI without wanting to die. I just wish Readdle would make the iPhone version so handsome. As it stands today, it’s pretty bad.
