Adobe Reader app going for free on Android Marketplace

on 05/24/2010 18:58 PDT

The Android Marketplace is offering its Adobe Reader app for free, but it will run only on Android 2.1 and above, which means not all Android-powered devices are able to support it. If you happen to own a Motorola Droid (aka Motorola Milestone) and Google Nexus One (as well as the HTC Evo 4G), then you’re good to go since those have been tested to run the app just fine, but we won’t limit it to just these three. Among the features thrown into Adobe Reader for Android are multi-touch gestures (pinch-and-zoom and double-tap-zoom), flick-scrolling and panning. a “reflow” mode that will take text-heavy documents with wide margins, and automatically wrap the content for easy viewing on smaller screens.

Android Android is mobile operating system from Google. The software was originally built by a company called Android Inc, that was purchased by Google in 2005. From its modest debuts, Android has become a powerhouse that powers not only smartphones and tablet, but a host of other less high-profile devices and gadgets. Although Android is not a community-driven project, Google does release the source code as open-source under the Apache license.
