PDF file selection
ALD PDF opens with a folder-style interface that asks users to tap to search for a file. The screen displays device folders, making the app feel like a direct document picker.
This is useful for users who want a small utility focused on selecting local PDF files. Before opening sensitive documents, users should confirm which folders the app can access and where output files may be saved.
This gives the section a clearer user value by connecting the main feature to a concrete mobile use case, session goal, or replay reason.
Android file picker support
The flow can also move into the Android file picker, where users can browse recent files or cloud-linked file providers. This helps when PDFs are not stored in the app's initial folder list.
Using the system picker can be more familiar for users with files in Drive, downloads, or other document locations. It also makes file selection depend on Android storage permissions and provider access.

Ads, storage, and settings
A banner advertisement appears near the bottom of the file-selection screen, and Android settings show notifications, storage, mobile data, supported links, and background behavior. These are important for a document tool that may handle private files.
Users should avoid opening confidential PDFs unless they trust the app and understand its privacy handling. Notification and data settings can be kept minimal for occasional use.
