Since I updated my Ipad to IOS13 (and 13.1.2 in the meantime), I cannot open pdfs anymore from the mail app or the files app or Safari. The pdf icon looks different and when I click on it I get the ‘share’ dialogue with app recommendations that are not pdf related. It seems that the OS does not recognize pdfs anymore. On my Iphone after the update to ios 13 pdfs open normally in the build-in pdf viewer.

Resolved the issue. Deleting the ‚Alibaba‘ app fixed the issue for me. Do not ask me why. Seems to be an iOS13 bug.
