Never used that app but instead always used Adobes own app for pdf files as that still works flawless. Nevertheless Edge is my main browser on my phone.

I have Nito 10 Pro on my PC Huracan,
I think they have a mobile app if anyone is in need of a replacement for mobile.
Its the best I have ever used.
It sucks that MS is doing away with there mobile Reader.

Microsoft is following the trend by giving PDF-support in the Edge browser, just as it's the same on PC with Chrome and Firefox to name a few.

Also I do not think Nitro PDF supports Android, iOS or Windows Phone - I cannot find any on their app stores.
