Referey (v. 0.8.5) Разработано kmk |
Referey allows you to view your Mendeley (http://www.mendeley.com) database and open associated local files on your Android phone or from your Dropbox. Please be aware that this is not an official Mendeley application!
Referey expects the Mendeley SQLite database and the associated files on the SD card. Referey does not use the Mendeley Open API.
Referey has the following functions:
- show reference list
- filter by collection or group
- filter by tags, authors, journal and publication date
- sort references
- search
- show reference details including notes and annotations (only the annotation text is shown)
- open associated files from SD card or Dropbox
- send file via email
A detailed documentation with instructions on how to set up the database and PDF files for Referey is located on the following webpage: http://www.referey.web44.net
Dropbox support is experimental and requires that the original Dropbox application is installed. If the associated files are located in your Dropbox please specify the following "PDF folder path" in Preferences:
dropbox://foldername

[2013-03-16] A Google User: Clean, quick, dedicated developer This app does take some tinkering to get set up properly. I sent a few emails to the developer who was a great help and replied very quickly. Dropbox sync is a bit finicky but there is a workaround using an app called dropsync that I've discovered. Now have access to all my articles on the go! Loving it!!! |

[2012-12-29] A Google User: Missing vital feature So you made an app for an online service that doesn't use the API? Garbage. |
|
[2012-12-11] A Google User: Very good app Just what I need to keep an organised offline copy of my PDFs and references which is always with me. I sync from my Linux Mendeley Desktop because I often have limited or no access to the internet. Lately however, Referey cannot use my sqlite file - perhaps too big or new version of Mendeley 1.7 uses an incompatible sqlite structure. I will try to solve this issue so that I can enjoy Referey again. |

[2012-11-25] A Google User: I tried all Mendeley apps, this is the best I have over thousands of pdfs on my nexus 7. The only way I got Mendeley to work and save my annotations to the pdf is via referey. I store my pdfs in dropbox. The Mendeley sqlite db is also downloaded via dropbox. The developer is very responsive in helping me solving issues of displaying the filters for the large database. New version of Mendeley (1.7) broke the compatibility with old database. The developer was able to fix it in a few hours after I notified him the issue. Couldn't ask for more! |

[2012-09-18] A Google User: Absolutely fantastic app After using scholarley and droiderley and all the others that don't work, I was very grateful to find this app. |
|
[2012-08-20] A Google User: Wonderful I use SugarSync to sync the Mendeley database file and my PDF folder between my PC and my tablet. The ability of Referee to remap file paths is fantastic. Thank you! |

[2012-08-10] A Google User: Best mendeley app No doubt the app for mendeley |
|
[2012-08-08] A Google User: It Works!!! Lacking most of the functionality of the pc mendeley but has the most important parts-> organization of all my pdfs plus info. Many thanks to the developer! |
|
[2012-07-29] A Google User: good but needs syncing Works on my Nexus 7. Setup is a little complicated but I figured it out in a few minutes because I needed alternative paths. The instructions are helpful but could probably be more explicit. I like Scholarley better as far as aesthetics and useage but it is having issues with authentication. That is because I actually can sync everything with the free folder on Mendeley (for a couple years anyways) and then access those. If Referey could sync at least to my computer, like point it to the location of the database file and the PDFs on my computer then that would be fine too - the online part isn't what excites me - just want to sync. |

[2012-07-27] A Google User: Best Mendeley Client around I'm using it on my tablet and is very useful to keep all my papers synchronized with my PC. By the way I use it with FolderSync and Google Drive to store the files, which works better than the old Dropbox app. The fact that you can make changes (like notes or highlighting) to the PDFs and synchronize those changes gives it a decisive advantage over other Mendeley clients around. And it works great! The interface could use a bit more work (Droideley for example looks much better, and Scholarley looks better in tablets), but besides that it is a great app! |

[2012-06-14] A Google User: Great app Works great on Archos 70 and galaxy nexus. |
|
[2012-04-11] A Google User: Almost perfect... Only thing missing is use of the Mendeley API. Otherwise terrific. Love the ability to maintain single pdf file in dropbox. |

[2012-02-24] A Google User: best mendeley app |
|
[2012-02-21] A Google User: Excellent Only android based app that is useful for accessing my Mendeley database! |
|
[2012-01-21] A Google User: Awesome. |
|
[2011-12-31] A Google User: Awesome! Works great when combined with dropsync or rsync! I can even take notes with ezPDF reader and have it show up in Mendeley after a sync. |
|
[2011-12-02] A Google User: Good idea Even the idea deserves a five star! |
|
[2011-11-03] A Google User: great apps. with gingerbread on atrix to use with files stored on sd card, use 'sdcard-ext', instead of 'sdcard', in the path settings, because the later refers to phone's internal memory. |

[2011-10-07] A Google User: Fantastic program THe alternative PDF path conversion works perpectly for me as I change the rule of stored PDF folder. Good work, mate! |
|
[2011-09-09] A Google User: Wow!!! Works great. Let's ne have all my references in my pocket, perfectly organized |

[2011-09-07] A Google User: Great App Adding the 'Alternative PDF path conversion' option has greatly increased the usefulness of this application. It makes the use of Mendeley on the move a practical proposition. Shame on Mendeley for ignoring their Android users and not producing something like this months ago. Clearly they do have the ability as their iPhone app has been available for some time. |

[2011-08-27] A Google User: works, but... It works, but some aspects have not been thought through. One embarrassingly oversight is the assumption that all files are located at the same folder depth. If Mendeley doesn't make this assumption, the program shouldn't either. There must be an option to drop initial folders, not only to preserve tail folders. Better yet, add some simple AI, and have the program find its way around based on local folder. By the way, if Mendeley allows for multiple folder locations, so should this program |

[2011-08-11] A Google User: Confusing Set Up I could use a whole lot more support in establishing the file paths! I've been trying for two days, and can't get it to work. Where can I get some assistance? |

[2011-07-21] A Google User: Perfect I love the ability to use your own files instead of syncing. I don't want to edit my library on the go, just read everything (which doesn't fit in the 500 MB for online sync anyway). I am not heavily vested in highlighting, so this is not a problem either. I already had the pdfs on my phone, just finding the one I wanted to read was a pain. Now it is easy. Thx |

[2011-04-12] A Google User: Good app. Does what it says. I can have all my papers with me. I like the interface, it's very simple though. Having the search feature would be nice. |

[2011-04-08] A Google User: Nice app This is a nice app as far as it goes but I agree with Kyle that Author/Journal filtering would be great, as well as perhaps publication date. BTW if Kyle does/did write a syncing script I'd be very interested in having a look at that too... |

[2011-03-28] A Google User: Fantastic Works great. I would to be able to filter on author or journal. Otherwise this is fantastic. I think tomorrow I will write a quick python script for syncing files on my computer with this app. |
