Edge on Android isn't available for opening PDFs
Android 9 pie and latest version of Edge Android beta, in the file manager when I "Open with" on PDF file, Edge isn't available. I'd like the same features we have on desktop, Mac, Linux...
You hate reading PDF on phone, but we are not talking only about you.
and because you hate, you conclude that "So there will not a large popularity" ...
i know people that like to read books and novels on phone because it's mobile and you can carry it anywhere.
OneDrive PDF reader in Android (or maybe mobile in general since I don't use IOS), is great. it has PDF annotation and everything.
I don't know what's preinstalled on Iphones for PDF, but if Edge could at least have the same PDF functionalities as OneDrive it would suffice.
they need to overhaul the whole app anyway since it's using a very old Chromium version and it's missing lots of functionalities. it's more than 1 year old. so maybe they could throw PDF support in while doing it.

You can't set defaults on iOS outside of mail and browsers on iOS. You use Preview to view PDFs opened from Files and you use Safari to view PDFs from the web.
- Thanks, well in that case I think an Edge browser with built in PDF support + annotation + sticky notes + digital signing etc. would be very useful.
