Huge step forward, but please
I am very impressed that this app runs on the iPhone at all, but please allow it to rotate to landscape mode. Reading and annotating PDFs would be perfect viable in landscape but is not in portrait. FYI: my iPhone benchmarks well above my iPad or Macs.Michael Vosburg
Excellent app for research, journalism, non-fiction
Far and above the best citation manager on the market. Libraries are transferable and can be used across platforms. Cite while you write is essential to make this app work for you. Your reference page or Bibliography will be automatically updated as you add or delete references. Make sure that multiple entries by the same lead author are identical. For example, George E. Smith should not later be entered as G.E. Smith.Show lessRockinJay

Useable, but not enjoyable
While I appreciate Apple Pencil integration, the PDF annotation abilities are kludgy at best. At times annotations duplicate themselves randomly. I would love to see an eraser (sometimes the undo button stops working!), as well as different profiles for highlighters and pens- I never seem to want to write notes in the same thickness I need to highlight text. I don’t find the UI intuitive at all, and have to go to my desktop to find and import all references and PDFs.Show lessBusebee
Finally an iPhone app!
Cannot understand why it took so long but at least it’s here now. It’s not bad but a few things would really improve this app:
1. Tapping the pdf thumbnail should open the pdf directly, not bring you to the reference info and force you to scroll to the bottom each time
2. It should remember which pdf was open and place within the article after closing the app. After switching away it eventually closes and you must hunt down the article again
3. Support for group sets, or whatever it’s called. Or better yet, why not just have a folder system, so you can nest as many folders as you like?Show lessDddd56bbbbb
Can’t read PDFs unless they can be rotated
Good idea, but this is the only app I’ve ever used that doesn’t let me rotate text to read broadside. Makes it pretty useless for reading the normal 2 column small text PDFs that I’m organizing hereff3468
Missing key features from desktop version
It works better than expected, however I would love to see the addition of Smart Groups. The majority of my groups from the desktop version are smart groups, unfortunately when I connected my account to the app I could not have access to them.nomes5245
Good app, please consider the following
The app is overall good. However, to make the app a great resource for reading and annotating papers, please consider better Apple Pencil integration (double tapping, scrolling with finger while in annotation mode with pencil, etc.). In addition, for some reason, switching between apps from EndNote does not seem to be working. Finally, the search function for new papers to add to the library should be improved as well (right now, I primarily rely on the Mac app to add new papers and sync). The web interface is not particularly helpful. It would be easier to search directly in the app and import the paper right into the library.Show lessOSK_2019
Great app, room for improvement
The lack of a good iOS app had moved me away from the gold standard of reference apps, which is endnote.
To my surprise Endnote has made a great come back! Specifically:
1) iPhone app
2) great integration with pubmed and google scholar and easy downloading of citations
3) create temporary citations, which in conjunction with endnote web allow for a 100% iOS workflow to create bibliography on scientific articles. WOW!
4) the PDFs of the references can be shared and are not locked in inside the app
There are a couple more things that if they get incorporated, then they would improve even more the great experience. These things in order of perceived (by me) complexity are:
1) allow the customization of the info that gets presented about an article. Specifically I don’t like that I have to “dig in” to find my research notes about an article, I would like them to show up on the top
2) allow for subgroup creation
3) allow the PDFs to be accessed by files app
4) automatic citation creation for newly imported PDFs (similar to what the desktop app does)
5) automatic download of PDFs (similar to what the desktop app does)Show lessKonstantinos3000
Really nice experience. Some improvements necessary.
The overall use of the app is great. The improvements in pdf annotation and support for Apple Pencil are a life changer.
I do most of my readings on the iPad and manage my library on the Mac app, which is really slow compared to the iOS version. However, a really important feature is not present in the iOS version. How to filter and/or change the read flag for a reference. Once I read, and annotate the document on the iPad, and sync my libraries, on the desktop app the reference still is flagged as unread. The same on the iPad is not trivial to find out which references I read or not. That’s the only reason of not given the app a 5 star.Show lessjpastorino_uy
