Gianluca Baldassarre An application I greatly needed! Great features: (a) possibility of accessing my BibTex bibliographical repository in Dropbox from a tablet/smartphone, and not only from my office pc (b) possibility of modifying the bibliographical entries on the move, e.g. to add my comments to my ''comment'' entry field (but to save in Dropbox I have to digit the path by hand?) (c) I can open the .pdf files of the papers based on the JabRef link contained in their BibTex entry, add comments and highlightings in the .pdf file (e.g., with the external App ReplyGo that opens the .pdf), and then save the changes directly in the Dropbox .pdf file. Unfortunately, I cannot open a repository with 4000 entries and 1800 pdf files from Dropbox: the program is not capable of visualising the content of the large Dropbox directory (too many files, I think; this could be easily solved if I could directly tell the program the dropbox:///path/file.bib to open). At the end I cannot use it... : ( I give 5 stars as this is exactly the program I needed! So I really hope in the future its limitations will be solved and I can use it with my large file!!

Great start! This is really nice, and is only a couple of features short of being everything I need for reference management on android. In-app dropbox support is clearly the biggest thing; using RefMaster as a searchable index into a large set of references stored in a dropbox folder has got to be one of the most common use cases, but its hamstrung as long as you have to exit the app to manually download the file every time. Second request would be some support of JabRef groups, so that I could have an easily accessible sublist of references on the tablet itself. Nice job so far!

Infuse Would be fun to use, but I can't use my barcode reader.

unfortunately app won't let you save to dropbox This might be my mistake -- but I can't get the app to save to dropbox; I open a file from there, but when I want to save changes, the app refuses to do so on dropbox and I get a cryptic error message after filling in a filename. Great idea, still!
