ZotEZ. Your Zotero reader. Everywhere

ZotEZ is a third-part client on Android for synchronizing, sorting and downloading articles that are managed with Zotero, and stored on either Dropbox, Google Drive or OneDrive , and even locally.

ZotEZ aims at facilitating file management for users of Zotero that chose to store their library database on another Cloud than the default ones (webDav, Zotero servers).

ZotEZ is the "read-only" version of a bigger project (Aziz, see Aziz, Lite! https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.ezbio.azizlite for more info) intended to provide editing options as well as full side note management, for any of these reference management softwares: Papers (see our app EZPaperz), Zotero, and Mendeley (see MendEZ).

Free features :

Syncing of your papers' library with Dropbox, Google Drive or OneDrive. Or just accessing your local Zotero copy.

Listing of papers / books and displaying their main information (title, authors, publisher, year published, ...).

Downloading pdfs and notes of a document when available

Accessing attached links when available

Sharing the pdf of a document when available

Searching within references

Advanced settings:

- resetting library data and reference manager type

- deleting local files

- hiding advanced metadata (labels, flags, etc.)

Local libraries: if you cannot put your library in a cloud, you can copy it on your local Android storage and load it into ZotEZ! Read our tutorial for more information: http://azizlite.ezbio.net/index.php?p=blog&id=7

Secondary storage: you can choose to store the downloaded PDFs either on the internal memory or an external SD card!

(Beta) Fast Loading of papers: if you have a large number of papers, you can choose to load them at the same time as they are displayed, so that you can access them while the others are still loading.

(Beta) Altmetric scoring.

Extra features:

Sorting options (by tags, titles, types, authors, etc.)

Search filter for papers (by tags, titles, ...), authors and collections

Author’s tab: visualize your library directly from an author's perspective
