Steps to reproduce
Have a pdf file within a file, but also showing up in the file explorer
Sync the vault to ios
Turn on syncing for pdf’s specifically for both devices
Restarted both devices and apps
Did you follow the troubleshooting guide? [Y]
Expected result
To be able to view the PDF within the IOS Obsidian app
Actual result
The app shows the PDF viewer with the correct title, except the PDF viewer in the app is empty
The file seems to have synced: as it is showing in the phone’s file app, within the Obsidian folder, but when I click on it from the file app, it takes me to the Obsidian app and shows the same empty PDF viewer, displaying 0 of 0 pages.
I restarted both devices, restarted the apps, and re-installed the iOS app. The apps are fresh installs in restricted mode and default themes and were when the sync was made.
Opening up synced Word documents through the ios Word app works, it’s just the PDF that doesn’t
Tried with one other PDF file, same result. My PDF file is 1.28MB
