It was greatly useful and accessible for students and widely available for various research

★★★★★ Prabartak · Apr 5, 2026

Amazing app for researchers. Very easy to toggle, and by using this, you can easily convert your doomscrolling habit into something productive. Kudos to the Devs!

★☆☆☆☆ Nuno Martins · Jul 26, 2026

Need a prime subscription (€170/year) to just see abstracts of papers! Oh, Researcher, you're so dearly missed...

★★☆☆☆ Fedor T · May 3, 2026

Poorly adapted to Android, e.g. back button closes the app. Overall UI experience is rough, surprising for an app that's supposedly been around for years. Why are paper titles truncated in feed view? I have to click through just to be sure the paper is irrelevant? Show citation count prominently, it's the simplest way to avoid wasting time on duds. Feed updates are slow. Good general idea, but needs work, definitely not yet worth the money they are asking

★☆☆☆☆ epo (イポー) · May 16, 2026

Requires an account to read articles, but the app's login doesn't even work. Tried through login via Gmail and via email.
