It is a good reference management system. However I found some bugs in the Mendeley android application. 1. It inverts the colour when system dark mode is on. Developers need to consider theme settings for the app (System default, dark theme, light theme). 2. The highlighted texts and annotations are not showing properly in the android app. The PC version is almost perfect. If you consider fixing these bugs in the android app, Mendeley will be the best reference management system.

Need an immediate update of theme setting of this app. My eyes hurt so bad to read on the dark mode, and the color of pictures in the article also affected become negative color make everything worse. This app was very helpful, but became useless bcs of the unchangeable theme.

The files added on my computer are not syncing to the ipad app, nor to the android app. This is really frustrating because I would like to make notes while on the move. Please let me know if there is a fix to make this core functionality work..!

Colors follow the system theme without the ability to override them. I run Android in dark mode, and Mendeley inverts colors to accommodate this. I would like to have the ability to control though the settings.

I love it ! It makes it easy to quickly check something out from my library, read some article while commuting etc.

I hope such a great app will not retire for good, and at least will be replaced by an updated version. It is so convenient to read papers on a tablet!
