Thanks to everyone on F-Droid and GitHub for the support and kind words, it really means a lot! I’m happy to share that Aftergleam is now on Google Play too.
Researchers need to keep up with the hundreds of new papers posted every day on arXiv and other preprint servers. Aftergleam learns your interests locally on your phone, so your data never leaves your device, and shows you papers that matter.
It covers computer science, engineering, biology, medicine, chemistry, law and more. You can also set keywords to get notified about the exact topics you follow, and read papers offline as PDF or in Reader mode.
Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=si.jakobkreft.aftergleam
Website: https://aftergleam.app/
It's open source: https://github.com/jakobkreft/Aftergleam
I hope you enjoy and find it useful as much as I do.
So to be clear, these are all papers before the peer review process?
Not everything, no. All papers come from preprint servers like arXiv and bioRxiv, but many are posted after they’ve been accepted. Aftergleam shows that on the card and ranks accepted papers higher. If a paper you skipped gets accepted later, it can show it to you again.
Oh and forgot to add, you can tweak the algorithm in the settings to put more weight on venue.
Neat!
