What's New in Quirely

1.53

November 4, 2026

Added adaptive layouts for iPhone Duo: a compact layout on the outside display and a tablet-style layout when unfolded. Keep your selected tab, chat draft, library filters, and Saved Chats open when changing display size. Improved PDF reading so resizing does not jump back to an earlier search result.

Just what I needed!

After being in academia for 15 years this is just what I needed to take advantage of the new and unending benefits of AI!

An ease

This app was incredibly helpful when it came to citing references for my paper and pooling data to help organize my thoughts.

Best PDF library App there is

I’ve been looking for this app for a long time. It’s feature rich and lets you find your PDF through metadata. It has a clean design and it’s stable and simple; perfect for research. I was using Zotero but it was missing key features. I’m staying with Quirely

Made paper writing easy

After reading so many papers and articles it things became a blur. I couldn’t remember what I read or where. Quirely made it so I could answer my own questions and helped me cite my sources simply
