You cannot add referenced on the desktop App. Importing them directly from web browsers is the only way to do so (as far as I know). But the web importer has not been working properly lately! How can one add references then? Please fix the issues as soon as possible! Thanks!

Been using this extension for two years now, and it is the slowest thing available. I would have switched if it hadn't been for all the references I've gathered in Mendeley. It sometimes does not open when clicked as others have mentioned, and is super slow. Waiting for it to load contributes to my procrastination! I hope I can find a faster alternative.

Works when it wants and always slow if it does. I hate referencing, bane of my existence, and this is part of the reason. Only thing I can get to actually work so 2 stars for that I guess.

This used to work really well and was my go to for my Uni references. I don't know what's happened but it is completely unusable. 90% of the time it doesn't respond when clicked and the other 10% of the time it just brings up a tiny blank box in the top left corner of the screen and does nothing else. Such a shame as I have used this for most of my Uni and it used to be so helpful.

Durante estos últimos días está funcionando fatal. No carga, hay que reiniciar la extensión, se atasca otra vez... Al final me es más rapido descargar el artículo por SciHub y abrirlo desde el programa.
