How can I annotate my PDFs in Dropbox and keep them in sync?
Hi - so I am new to iPad world. I am a researcher.
I am looking for an app that allows me to annotate PDFs, write on it and keeps in sync in-place the original location in Dropbox.
I don't want it to make a local copy or create a separate folder.
I have read some articles abouth this, but still haven't found the ideal app.
Which one would you recommend for me and why?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
It seems that the feature to edit/annotate PDFs in the Dropbox app is missing for iPad/iOS. I am only able to add text boxes and signature, but I’m not able to annotate PDF or perform Markup operations.
moreover, if I made certain files off-line, then those files are not made “off-line “in the Files app, I am only able to access those files through the Dropbox app where annotation is not possible.
