Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my Acrobat Reader iOS app asking me to pay again?
This usually happens if you are not signed into your Adobe account on the app, or if you signed in using an email address that is not linked to your active Acrobat Pro desktop subscription.
How do I check which email is linked to my desktop Acrobat Pro subscription?
Open Adobe Acrobat Pro on your desktop computer, click on the Profile icon in the top right corner of the application window, and you will see the email address listed under your account information.
Can I share my Acrobat Pro mobile premium features with family members?
Adobe Acrobat Pro subscriptions are generally tied to a single user's Adobe ID. Family members would need to use your Adobe ID to access the premium features on their devices, which may violate Adobe's terms of service regarding concurrent logins.
