Mendeley (PDF Reader) App Reviews

And i guess, in Future there will be some good features in the App, like higlighting or Screen-Rotation.

This app is not good to work with it. We can only read, like on every other app. Please implement in the next version: highlight and notes !!!

I have a really serious question to the App developer: Do you test/use your App before youre publishing a new version? The new update made everything even worse. There is no working landscape mode anymore (although the menu bar is displayed like landscape mode in EVERY position of the iPad) and pages are displayed without top and bottom edges. Ok, not everything. The "Open in..." button works finally and I thank you for this. Thus, I can open my collection in Apps which can display and highlight PDFs properly, what this App doesnt do. Furthermore, this App is useless because: - no search function, not in the App for finding a paper, nor via web for paper info completion (DOI or per title) - no sub folders - no highlighting, not even mark and copy function - no full screen reading in landscape mode

Nice first try of an App. But functions like highlighting, annotations are missing. I hope they will be part of the next version and that it will be published very soon!

It is 5 months now since the last update and everybody is still waiting the real update! The app is getting worse and urgently needs an update! - doesnt synch with the server anymore - screen doesnt turn around anymore if I turn the iPad - annotation and highlighting is missing - folder and sub-folder structure in desktop version becomes an endless flat list of folders without the folder hierarchy on the iPad When will the next update be released? You keep promising this since half a year now!!

I appreciate that the developers wanted to put an app for mendeley on the store. Unfortunately, it crashes all the time! Im sure that they know that any program that does not work properly is worse than having no program for the same purpose at all. But I dont understand why they ever put this buggy thing here.

Its getting closer to being really useful. The previous version was horribly buggy, now its still not exactly fast, but at least stable, and a good way to get access to ones library while on the go. Looking forward to further improvements (more sorting options, faster updating of the library; Id also love to see integration with external PDF reader apps, of which there are already many established ones).

The App is getting better from update to update. If you have a big collection of PDFs you have to work with (for scientific work for example - Master, Diploma, PhD...) and want to take them with you on your iPad (or iPhone) you can do exactly this (if you are a Mendeley user). For me its a great help! Keep up the good work!

Great App, includes many additions I was waiting for in the new version. Thanks guys!

The app looks really great now! There are a lot of improvements over the previous versions... The PDF viewer is very useful now, and adding note is really easy and you can really do a lot with it...

This app says it can enable annotations, these are basic at best. It seems to fail to remember authors names, you have to type in most of the information. Additionally, there is no part to add a summary or note overview etc as is possible in other managers. Admittedly this is only a mobile app but still as a student on the go, trying to comprise an overview etc. this is simply not feasible. I expect much more in a reference manager, otherwise it is just a pdf library at best.

So awesome and helpful, great job! But please add the filter by tags!

It is an awesome product for being free. But I would really like to: merge documents, append PDF files and most importantly let the app extract meta information. Cheers mates!

Excellent function and Im completely impressed!

All you Need.

Best I could find for the easyness of use

Best reference manager that is usable across all platforms

Basically a cool tool for scientists. However, they need to work on the details: E.g.: - crash when searching in PDFs - slow and old fashioned cloud functionality for instance as compared to Dropbox and the like - cannot move folders between shared groups and private folders - cannot make a private group into a shared group I hope they keep working.

I mean: really?!

Please add full annotation support like in goodreader to get 5 stars
