Hey r/fossdroid community!
MJ PDF v2.2.0, my open-source PDF reader, is almost ready for official release, but I need your help with testing. This version focuses on improvements and stability. Here's a short summary of change log:
Short Change Log
- Added support for Arabic, Chinese, Turkish, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Hindi, and Russian.
- Introduced Always in Horizontal Mode option.
- Added return button to search results, improved search result highlighting.
- Added full support for password-protected and non-local PDF.
- Added 'Reload PDF file' button setting.
- Added an experimental setting to show a 'reload PDF file' button
- Fixed issues with the back button not functioning in some cases.
- Improved UI consistency with icon and text colors, and a more streamlined Full Screen Buttons layout.
- Addressed many crash scenarios.
- Updated to Android SDK, Gradle and many deps.
Note: Major updates to core libraries mark significant progress, resolving long-standing issues.
Exciting Update
While working on this version, I found a way to possibly add some of the top-requested features like Text Highlighting and Live Text Selection. It looks like I can get these done without too much hassle. However, I'm swamped right now, so I'm not sure when I'll start on these. I’ll keep you posted!

Thanks for being a part of this journey, and happy testing!
