Comments on Zoo for Zotero for Android

★★★★★ Aaron Wolf · Aug 2, 2022

Fantastic! I used Mandela until they cancelled their app. I wanted my PDFs synced to my tablet to quickly access and read them. Otero is great, but this app seals the deal: I can load my library, open a PDF from the reference in my preferred PDF reader (no under powered built-in reader like Mandela used to have), and everything just works. Interface is a little bland, but would happily send money to this developer to cover costs and hopefully brighten it up a bit. That's a minor issue.

★★★★☆ Johannes Debler · Jan 5, 2023

It's certainly the best of the available android apps. For me sorting by date doesn't seem to be working properly. It would also be nice to see the date in the library screen. I'd love to see colored tags, as that is how I keep track of read items.

★★★★☆ Steve Howell · May 5, 2022

Almost Perfect! This app supports loading and exploring your Otero library, including pulling files from WebDAV. The metadata for your files in cached with the ability to open the attached documents, at which point the file is downloaded. The one issue I experienced was that the file sync was only one way, so if I annotated a file using Adobe, even if I saved the file, the annotations did not sync up to the server. Further, open the same file multiple times downloads multiple copies.

Buggy AF Keeps trying to redownload my library Froze a few times Lots of errors while downloading lib Annoyingly only allows use of Otero storage Not enough control over settings Didn't really like the GUI Ugh. UGH.

★☆☆☆☆ Steven S · Nov 24, 2024

I cannot get account to sync, it allows me to log in but then says an error won't allow syncing. Using the API key gives a similar error. As is this app is useless

★★☆☆☆ david dmonte · Jan 31, 2025

It syncs yes.but then the list start way above the search bar...like I understand.maybe the layout is messed up... It needs some maintenance and tweaking . I feel it didn't my WebDAV .but it's ok.at least synced...
