Lib arXiv

Despite what other reviews say, you can search for papers in this app. It was not in an intuitive location, but it exists in the ”Others” tab, then ”Search” at the top.

Extremely convenient idea, but the downside is that it’s extremely hard to search for older articles that you want. I can put in the author and exact title, and still will need to scroll through hundreds of results until I find the one I want. I understand this is how the search on arXiv works, but the website itself also has a detailed search option which allows you to find what you need. If this app would implement a better search functionality, it would be 5 stars.

There is no back button on iPhone 11 allowing me to go back from an abstract to the containing category
