What's New in PubMed Hub

26.10.30

October 31, 2026

PubMed Hub 26.10.30 is a big update. Here is what's in it. Read in your language - Use the app in 21 languages: pick one in More > Language. - With Pro, papers can be translated into your language right on your device. A short note reminds you that machine translation can miss details, so check the original for anything important. Listen your way - A new player for papers, PDFs and books, with a cover card, parts you can jump between, and a mini-player that keeps going while you browse. - Choose a female or male voice. - A tip shows how to add a better, more natural voice from your device's settings. Two new looks - Lab Slate and Deep Teal join Reading Room, Evidence Desk, Omelette Night and Clinical Mint. MyArticles and RNews - MyArticles and RNews now have their own tabs, so your papers and the latest research news are one tap away. - My Articles shows your citations, your first paper and your most cited work. - Find my papers looks for new papers under your name and lets you add the ones that are yours. Bigger screens - A cleaner iPad layout: the sidebar sits on the left and folds to icons, PDFs open beside the list, and settings open in place instead of in pop-ups. - Support for iPhone Duo, folded and open. Also - Fewer ads, in better places, so they stay out of the way of what you're reading. - Many fixes and small improvements. Thanks for reading with PubMed Hub. If something doesn't look right, tell us in More > Contact us.

User reviews

Well Build and very useful tool for Research papers

Very useful app for research articles from PubMed and all PDF or research articles or books at single place.

Small Window into Real Science

I wish the app didn’t send traffic from amazon.com and google.com

Buggy

Great research app. However, the application will periodically crash when tapping on an article, over and over. Usually it's just the one article that crashes the program.

Json doesn't download

So there's no way to read the data. I deleted, reinstalled, etc, AND no customer support for reporting this. So, 1* cuz it doesn't work.

Registration bug

When I try to register, there is a bug. I inappropriately get asked for a password in a pop-up window as soon as I am done entering my info and click on REGISTER.
