Not for School or Recreation
There are problems that me and all of my classmates mentioned while we were using this app. The main problem is that it lags and stops a lot if you are using it offline. When you flip through pages too much, it starts to freeze for a while before you can flip the pages again. So when we were looking for a certain page in our ebook, the app lagged every 10-15 seconds. This happens less frequently with internet connection, but it can still happen. Especially if the app has not loaded certain parts of the book yet. Another problem is that there isn't a simpler way to find a certain page. Even though the app has a scroller that helps you jump through the pages, it doesn't indicate which page you're going to flip to. If there's a way you can do this in the future, that would be good as well. TL;DR I don't recommend this app for anyone who wants to use this for ebooks. Whether for educational or recreational purposes. It's better if you find an app that can do so much better until Adobe fixes these problems. It's not worth it.

Waiting for an update
Purchased an ebook that required Adobe Digital Editions but cannot download it onto my iOS 13 devices. When you click the download link, the file gets downloaded, without any notice, into a downloads folder I the newly existent Files. Unfortunately, I cannot load it into ADE as it is not one of the places I can “share” to from the downloads folder. I visited the adobe users group, where I found out where all 9 of my download attempts had disappeared into. So waiting for the update from somebody.

Almost unusable
This app is almost indescribably bad. Scrolling is difficult and jerky, zoom settings do not stick from page to page, it’s very difficult to scrub through pages to find things, highlighting is so bad as to be useless (it highlights an entirely different part of the page from what you attempted to select)—in short, it offers little of the usability of a good PDF reader. I presume this is because it is for captive audiences like students who have to read protected textbooks.
