Buggy, limited functionality – Papers 3 - Reference Manager Review

I’ve been a fan of the Papers app for years — it’s been great to be able to access my Papers article collection on my iPad, but this app is pretty buggy when you try to add new PDFs or curate your journal collection, or do anything besides reading articles. Syncing also requires a Dropbox account. That has been the case for a very long time, of course, but there are many other (cheaper, more functional) cloud syncing services now, including Apple’s iCloud. The authors have made no attempt to update the app and support alternatives. In general updates to the app are rare and usually do not add new functionality. One gets the impression that active development of the app has ceased, unfortunately.
