| 2024-10-18 |  | | en | I have used many paper and web-page reference manager, but so-far, sciwheel is my favorite. My _only_ issue is with the Chrome extension and the inability to highlight or add a note with the keyboard. Thanks for the great Add-on! |

| 2019-10-28 |  | | Versão 44.7.2 Busca não retorna trecho do texto pesquisado. Acho contra produtivo. Não é possível realizar busca ou filtros na mesma aba. Versão: 38.4.0 Ótima. Botão de sair parece botão para desativar as funções. | |

| 2018-05-04 |  | | I wanted an alternative to Zotero with better online and mobile options. I think this will work well. Importing form Zotero to F1000 Workspace was much better than from Zotero to Mendeley. I could not get the browser extension to work until I realized that Privacy Badger was blocking F1000. You can fix that by finding F1000 in the list of blocked trackers that Privacy Badger creates and then sliding it to green. | |
