About this app

Simple Android PDF viewer based on pdf.js and content providers. The app doesn't require any permissions. The PDF stream is fed into the sandboxed WebView without giving it access to the network, files, content providers or any other data.

Content-Security-Policy is used to enforce that the JavaScript and styling properties within the WebView are entirely static content from the APK assets along with blocking custom fonts since pdf.js handles rendering those itself.

It reuses the hardened Chromium rendering stack while only exposing a tiny subset of the attack surface compared to actual web content. The PDF rendering code itself is memory safe with dynamic code evaluation disabled, and even if an attacker did gain code execution by exploiting the underlying web rendering engine, they're within the Chromium renderer sandbox with less access than it would have within the browser.

Opens and loads easy but the zoom of the psf appears to be locked to the display size, so on most of my pdfs I had to pan and move the viewing area to read a whole line of text. I had to read a pdf like a type writer head moving across the page. Not good for ebooks.

In a day and age, where even apps like whatspp tell you that the PDFs you open can be unsafe, a PDF viewer built with security in mind even if its simple certainly has its use case. 5 stars for developing this app for everyone. I do think that addition of features to search PDF, swipe or tap to change pages would improve the user experience a lot though.

The application is simple, but it needs development and attention to the interface and user experience. standards are clear, such as warning the user if the file contains malicious code. Thank you. Thanks for the reply. I think I did not find the expression. From my experience with the program, I suggest that before opening the file, there should be a warning message if the file contains malicious code. Hackers are constantly developing malicious

The app prevents malicious code in the PDF causing any harm with an extremely high level of protection against it. It doesn't need to try to detect it and warn about it because it prevents it.
