Can’t access website for user guide
It sure would be great to be able to SORT my results. If there’s a way to do it, it’s not apparent in the app and trying to access the user guide at Referencesontap.com, the Cloudflare handshake always fails. Using the free version on my phone that never was an issue since results are limited to 20 hits per search. But now that I paid for the full version, I have to wade through hundreds of hits. "narrow your search terms” is not always the best way to discover new information, so ability to SORT would be great. Heck, just access to the user guide, and I could go from there.

What Support?
I downloaded the app for my new Mac Mini. I attempted to initiate a search only to receive notification of an SSL error. I clicked on their support link. There isn't any active support. Rather, I got information about the iOS app which I do not have. I clicked on the User Manual link and received information about and it was also about the iOS version. I would love to use this app on my Mac but so far that doesn't seem likely.

Almost perfect but not quite -- Hope the developer adds more functionality
The App is pretty good to find papers on arxiv and quickly organize your reading. There are some serious missing functionalities which can really improve the user experience, such as :
1. The inability to export the references: Currently there is no way to export the groups to a bib file, you may "share" individual papers via notes and the dialog box shows the bib references. But nothing for bulk export.
2. Inability to change where the app stores the downloaded pdfs. It is unclear if the pro version allows users to choose the cloud service, i.e., dropbox, google drive, etc.
3. Inability to add more searchable sites in the basic version. You can only choose to search between the sites listed, there is no way to add more sites.
4. Sorting function can be made available on the main interface.
I hope the developer considers these changes, if so I can see myself using this every day. Thanks!

Not intuative
No "Help".
So, can't figure out ho to use it. I understand its concept, but as there isn't any help to get started, for me, it was a waste of time.

New app loses previously paid features
I previously paid $9.99 for PubMed Tap to maximize the app’s features. With the new app, I’ve lost those features and am now relegated to ads, etc, unless I pay more. Those that paid to streamline PubMed Tap should not have to pay again.
