The app doesn‘t work

좋습니다만... on

South Korea

I used to enjoy this app in iOS. But it simply doesn’t work for about couple of months. And the lastest update version is too old… need to fix this problem.

필요한 기능들이 대부분 들어가있습니다. 다만, 사전기능도 추가하면 완벽할 것 같습니다.

Sync issues

This used to be great. Now I can’t sync without logging out and in and there seems to be no fix in sight.

Need a way to switch library in the app

This app is not usable any more because we upgraded our shared folder to shared library. And then it is not accessible from the app!

The app is fantastic for reading papers. I would give 5 stars if it can have the “look up” function. Wish the developers can enable this function.

Love the app, hate the problems

I am an everyday user of this app, both in its intended use as a reference manager and also as a very good PDF reader. There are just several things which degrade my user experience heavily in regular use. I. There’s no option to edit existing entries. Why? You do this on your website, which you’ve helpfully not let me access on mobile because you have this inferior app. Utterly nonsensical, and your insistence on me using the app by not letting me use the website is worthy of losing four stars alone. By your own admission, this app lacks the full features of the website. So why in the world would you make the website inaccessible to mobile users??? This is a puzzling and frankly stupid decision on your part. You either a) let me access the website so I can use the features that I am PAYING for, or b) actually finish the app, as it’s been a few years now and you just aren’t even close. II. The file size limit is frustrating and just completely unnecessary. For two reasons. 1), do you REALLY need every file to be online? It’s nice but you can get rid of this by just storing files over 100mb on the iPad itself in the app’s directory (probably with a little warning mark indicating that it is not available online). This is an opportunity for you to actually add a feature on the app that wouldn’t be available on the website. Regardless 2), you store the files I upload to my google drive. Unless google made some stupid decisions recently, they have no such limit. Further, the app’s actual size limit is closer to 50mb than the 100mb you claim, which leads me to believe the limit has more to do with deficiencies in coding than with server space. You should fix this before you charge your customers, yes? There are a few other small issues but they wouldn’t even be able to knock off a star. I am serious in saying this is a great app and it has no reason at all to have to have to be rated this low. You dropped the ball. Dearly, now pick it up and fix it.

Makes life so EASY!

This is a wonderful reference manager! I’ve been needing to find a great manager that allows me to organize and sort my papers as I wish and this app does just that! I love how easy it is to organize my references as well as sort out certain papers based on a label. It was so easy to sign in to my university account to get access to all the journals out there AND I don’t have to re-sign in! It’s so seamless everytime!! I also think that annotating the document is pretty easy and smooth. There is one thing I will say though that I wish Paperpile did offer, and that is the ability to “cite while you write”. I know some other managers offer that and I really think it would be a great way to level up this application to a different level. Overall, a really great reference manager that I enjoy!

As titled. Why is it necessary at all to update the app only to make it useless??
