Untitled Android PDF Reader

Minimum Viable Goals:

  • Continuous Horizontal Scroll - unreasonably rare feature
  • Presentation View - i.e. show on an external monitor - haven't seen another app do this yet!
  • Immersive View - no system status bar etc.
  • Autocrop margins
  • Open files the Android way
    • Accept intents to load a single PDF
    • Built-in file browser with requisite permissions
  • Delete+Reorder Pages - doesn't have to save the source file, but does need to save a change journal
    • Tap thumbnails in Home fragment to (un)group with previous
    • Tap thumbnails in Gallery fragment to (un)hide page groups
    • Drag thumbnails to rearrange pages
    • Save metadata of these actions between sessions
  • Text Annotations - as above

Stretch Goals:

  • Networked View:
    • send PDF file to another client
    • synchronize views for different readers
    • coordinate views for one reader multiscreen
  • Pen Annotations
  • Autocrop undesired elements (e.g. logo in top right corner, copyright footer)
  • Improve overall UI
