Why can’t my iPad Pro Mail app open a pdf since ios13 and its updates but my iPhone 8 can on iOS 13 and its updates. ????
is Apple going to fix it?? Or am I missing a setting
thanks
I got it fixed and hope this will help. I had the same issue after upgrading to iOS 13. Waiting and upgraded to iOS 13.1, 13.1.1, 13.1.2 could not help fix the problem at all. The pdf won’t open not just in Mail App but in WhatsApp and Line app. I usually use GoodNotes when working with PDF files but could not find the icon in the pop up menu, so I tried to work around by selecting other apps, such as Notability, Turbo Viewer, Acrobat, etc to open the file. I finally found GoodNotes and here is how it was fixed;
From the pop up menu select More to go to selecting App to work with, then tap Edit. Now I found Copy to GoodNotes, then tap + and Done. Go back to the PDF file, tap to open it. Select Copy to GoodNotes from the pop up menu and finish copying and viewing in GoodNotes. Now go back to Mail App and tap the PDF file again, unlike before, this time I found Quick Look, and Markup and Reply in the pop up menu. Select Quick Look and everything was fixed in every App that had the same problem open up PDF file.
I just had the same problem again yesterday after upgrading to iOS 13.2. I did the same thing and it worked for me again. I do not know if this will work with other iPhone or iPad.
There’s a 13.2 fix. I checked my Settings, General, Update and it was not there. So I turned off automatic updates and then the 13.2 update showed up. Let’s see if this will fix it. Thank you.
