HomeWelcome (SMS Messaging)
This feature allows admins to control UI that streamlines adding mobile devices
to PDF workflows as well as other features related to application startup. A startup screen now lets users invite themselves to install Acrobat Reader on their phone and automatically send themselves an install link.
These preferences determine how the screen appears as well as how often it is invoked.
For details about how the feature works, see
What's New.
