peilin gan (ID: 00000010484f9cf0) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/25/2021 I'm a college student, and preview on Mac does not exactly offer me the ability to make annotations. I use annotations a lot like bookmarks, and I like to keep all my formulae and theorems organized and in one place, and this extension is great for adding the papers I need.

Wickedd WSK (ID: 00000080b6f948ee) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/23/2021 BEST BEST BEST. Used it for the 30 days and I am a believer. Zotero is okay, but this 100x better!!! Smart, fast, intuitive, and doesn't flake like EndNote. Thank you to everyone who has been part of developing Kaleidoglobe, it has truly improved my efficiency research and writing projects by A LOT! Only wish that I would like to upload even more files to my projects: or maybe there is a paid version that has this, but it would be great to insert references from my library even from a website or a screen capture!!
