Ratings and Reviews
Useful, some issues with navigation bar readability
This app is great and super useful for every day arxiv scrolling. However, there seems to be a bug when reading PDFs in-app where the navigation bar at the top of the screen goes white. You can't read or see any of the buttons for going back or sharing, etc.
I would enjoy this app even more if it had a way to view the new HTML versions of papers that arxiv now provides!
Not upto the mark please fix the issues below
It has no place for performing exact search by an author name by default. This is a great drawback of this app. Well, after some trial and error, I could figure out the hidden way of doing it for example "Ashoke+Sen" returns results for only his papers. Unfortunately I'm totally disappointed seeing that for this particular search I cannot save the search result to my favourite. Why? Because it has logical operator "+" in it. But with that you get papers by many other authors as well. So unless there are additional operations to do advaned searches and saving them, I find the app totally useless to be frank.
Simple and good to use
Heads up you have to subscribe to the relevant categories before papers within those subjects will show up in search results
