Adobe, California-based company that specializes in creating multimedia and creativity software products, announced earlier this week that it released Adobe Reader version 10.1 for the Apple-developed iOS operating system and for the Google-developed Android operating system.

Adobe Reader for iOS is offered free of charge in the App Store and comes with support for numerous languages.. If you are anxious to get it, here’s the App Store link. Get Adobe Reader for iOS and you will get an app that provides the same functionality as the Adobe Reader application for the desktop.

“Just like Adobe Reader on the desktop, now you can use your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch to quickly view and interact with the widest range of PDF file types – including PDF Portfolios, password-protected PDF documents and even Adobe LiveCycle rights-managed PDF files,” explained Steve Gottwals, Group Product Manager, Adobe Reader.

On the App Store the features list puts things in perspective and sheds a bit more light onto what you can do with the Adobe Reader for iOS app. Here’s the list of features:

View PDF files

- Quickly open PDF files from email , the Web or any application that supports "Open In..."
- View PDF Portfolios, PDF Packages, annotations and drawing markups
- Read text annotations such as Sticky Notes

Access encrypted PDF files
- Open and view password-protected PDF files
- Access files secured by Adobe LiveCycle Rights Management, which helps protect sensitive documents
- Supports the highest grade of PDF encryption, up to AES256

Interact with PDF files

- Search text to find specific information
- Use bookmarks to jump directly to a section in your PDF file
- Select single page or continuous scroll modes
- Easily zoom in on text or images for a closer view
- Quickly navigate through large files using thumbnails
- Select and copy text from a PDF file to the clipboard

Print and share files

- Print wirelessly with AirPrint
- Share PDF files with other applications using "Open In..."
- Email PDF documents as attachments


Adobe also released Adobe Reader for Android version 10.1 which offers the same functionality as the iOS app. Since you already know what the app does, I’m just going to tell you that you can get Adobe Reader 10.1 for Android from the Android Market by clicking here or you can get it by clicking the QR code presented below.
