I just wanted to make some suggestions to improve the reading experience on iOS:
1. Is it possible to add a proper dark mode with a black background and white text? Right now it's light purple text on a dark purple background and it's incredibly hard to read at night. I have to turn up the brightness which makes other menu elements on screen too bright at night. At some point in a past version there was a proper night mode (I think when it was first added; before we had to manually change the background and text color each time)...
2. At one point there was a way to scroll lock so that in continuous scroll mode you could prevent distracting and inadvertent panning of the document. Ideally, when I'm in Continuous scrolling with Fit Width enabled, I'd like to only be able to scroll up and down, not pan left or right at all.
3. Is it possible for the Foxit PDF Editor to set the view mode based on the orientation? On iPhone, I would like to have Single Page Fit Width in portrait mode and Single Page Continuous in landscape. On iPad, I think Single Page Fit Page in portrait and Facing Fit Page in landscape are ideal.
4. Is it possible to add an option to disable the "mini menu" that appears in fullscreen? I'm not sure when this was added, but it's a little distracting when it cuts off a part of the document. This isn't a big deal, but I'm (and I'm sure many others are as well) quite comfortable bringing up the full menu to interact with the settings.
Beyond these issues, of which the first two are the toughest to deal with, Foxit is still the best PDF viewer on iOS by a large margin. It's the only one with reliable Forward/Back location movement and with five tabs. As someone who needs to move back and forth between different parts of different textbooks quickly and often, these two features have been absolute godsends.
