UPDF Review: The Best Free PDF Expert Alternative?

updf is the newest PDF editing software on the market and being the productivity Guru that I am I'm curious to see if it could measure up to the current King of the space PDF Expo in this video we'll take a closer look at the pros the cons and I'll let you know if it's actually worth your time hey guys if you're new here my name is obada I'm a final year medical student studying in London on this channel I talk about the best strategies and ways of leading a more productive and efficient life so what is updf updf is a new PDF editor made by this new startup company it also acts as a file manager and can cater for all your editing needs the app has a simple and easy to use user interface and comes with a ton of different features so without further Ado let's get stuck in so the first feature is that you can edit text in the PDF itself this means you can insert text you can delete text or you can even modify the text size you can also change the font to whatever suits you need and as well you can also change the color with absolute ease you can even insert images into the PDF and edit them then and there and when I say edit I'm talking you can resize you can rotate you can crop or even export the image another useful feature especially if you have large PDFs those with like 50 or 100 Pages or even more is that you can edit several Pages at once this means you can easily insert extract delete or even reorder or resize several Pages at once now for the most important part of a PDF editor is The annotation and let me tell you with the updf it has powerful annotation capabilities in the Windows or Mac you can easily highlight underline or strike through and you can do that to whichever color you desire also you can insert a text box you can create several different shapes and you can insert stickers or stamps or any form of markup to your PDF and with a bit of effort you can create and import your own custom stickers and stamps into the PDF another essential feature for medical students or really any students in general is the ability to sign a PDF quickly and easily and you can definitely do that in new PDF you can do on the iPhone the iPad the Android Windows or Mac also this is very useful for people involved in business who constantly sign contracts or form another Nifty feature built right into the app is a PDF scanner with ocrac ignition and this isn't any basic PDF scanner this means you can easily and quickly scan and save images using your iPhone or iPad and using the old Shell recognition you can convert the image into editable text that you can later edit in Word Microsoft or any other app this is particularly useful for people want to scan and edit handwritten notes or any documents on the go now since not everyone uses just PDF this app has got you covered it's got a built-in PDF converter that can convert your PDF easily and quickly into word excel PowerPoint XML HTML PDF a JPEG PNG text HTML XML the point is it can convert it to many different formats so all in all with all these features it has a nice intuitive design that makes everything easy to see reach and use so what makes it different to other apps such as PDF Expo or for stars it doesn't hold your RAM this allows you to open more apps at the same time without overheating or slowing down your laptop or Mac this means your performance is unaffected and therefore increasing productivity another cool thing about updf is the all-in-one aspect this means you have built-in scanner a built-in converter a built-in PDF editor and a built-in file manager all in one single app this makes it really easy to use and it syncs across all your iOS devices and Android and Windows if you have that as well which means it has perfect compatibility now for the all important question is how much does it cost well thankfully updf is free across all devices with the exception that in the Mac slash Windows you can only download one and edit one PDF per day if you want premium features you're gonna have to Fork out 30 per year if it's a rolling contract or fifty dollars per year if it's a lifetime subscription now that's actually relatively cheap compared to PDF Xbox which you know in the YouTube comments in my previous video about the best productivity apps for the Mac you can check it out here or here in this one the biggest kind of issue that everyone had was that it's so expensive which is true because it costs about 70 pounds per year on rolling contract which is about 85 and if you want a lifetime subscription it costs about 120 pounds which is easily about 140 which is very expensive for students to go to university college or school with special so the only downside is that the iPhone or iPad apps are not as useful as I thought you know for a file manager a PDF scanner or even a converter they're really good but when it comes to PDF editing they're not useful at all in my opinion they're only good for you know viewing a PDF so all in all let's remember that this is done by a startup company therefore they've got a long way to go on a lot of improvements to make but thankfully this means because they're a start they can take your feedback on board and any updates and they're more likely to be receptive and actually do something about it also if you leave any features updates that you want to see leave them in the comments below and I'll be sure to let the company know about it so in my opinion updf is an amazing app with a lot of powerful tools and especially since it's for free I would highly recommend that you least download on your iPhone your iPad your Android Windows or Mac test it out and see if it can replace whatever you're using to kindly edit PDFs for me with the premium features I think undoubtedly it would replace my PDF Xbox so that's it for today thanks for watching if you enjoyed this video please leave a thumbs up and click on the Subscribe button if you want to
