Greetings mendeley develop team,
First of all this is not actually a question, it's more like a suggestion. I've been using mendeley for a while now and I think it's a great service. However, I'm afraid that your iOS app still need a lot a work. Not only it lacks several crucial features ( and I'm not referring to anotation and related) it has several problems in simple features like synchronization. I don't know how mature u guys think that the app is but, in my opinion it's quite green. And I'm writing this because it's a shame that more effort is not put onto this app since I have almost nothing to point in the desktop or web aplications and the service itself. And I'm a sw engineer so, I know what a bug is and how hard is to grow a robust app.
Well , as I said this a suggestion message so here is a small and brief list of crucial features that should exist or are bugged ( sry for the ones that have already been reported):
1. There is no way to import or replace a file for a document without the desktop app ( at least that I'm aware of)
2. Problems with the app orientation
3. Severe problems with synchronization. I have about 300 documents in my library, my ipad app says that have 3000. Solved with a fesh install, but sooner or latter the problem returns.
4. The app folder support beraly exists. It doesn't make sense that you offer support for folder hierarchy in desktop app and not for the other platforms.
5. There is not sort feature, crucial in large libraries and research itself
Probably there are more but these are the ones that I consider the more crucial.
If you need any fuRther help please let me know.
