Did absolutely nothing in Chrome. Works in Firefox, though.

The extension is buggy, but the main problem is that the company that owns Mendeley has destroyed the service. Where is the iOS App? Why did they removed it? Why is there no more support for Mendeley Desktop version? The new web-based version of the application is just horrible and doesn't allow for in-text search among different papers only in 1 paper that is open. This was one the most important features in the desktop version! Moreover, i'm paying them for the storage but there is no support at all, they only communicate through their stupid positive messages without being able to answer on anything related to the usage of the app. Mendeley team, you basically destroyed the workflow of so many people in academia.

I hate Mendeley after using for a couple of years. I've lost my files and meta data without any way to restore them back. It seems they roll back their service. At first, it was convinient but now it's getting inconvenient by removing features from desktop and their cloud plateforms. Not recommended at all

I have to sign in every time I use the web importer. and most of the times, its only loading and I cant even sign in. its definitely not working and i have to cite manually. its disappointing to see it does not work.

Switched from Zotero. It is time consuming to sync citations from the desktop app after I add citation from chrome extension. Every time I add citations from chrome extension I have to go to the app and synchronize. I am not sure if this is an issue with my system, but Zotero directly adds to the app library without sync. Also, Mendeley opens a small pop up on my chrome browser which makes me feel uncomfortable. It is a nameless pop-up and the app uses that pop up for signing in.
