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.
Definitely not my line of work. I'm on the tools - https://www.explainxkcd.com/wiki/index.php/2501:_Average_Familiarity
The person that wrote the github issue seemed like they were somewhat aware of sources. Perhaps you could address the comment regarding best place to contact? A dedicated Lemmy community perhaps, spread the fediverse love?
I understand your hyperfocus for the app, because I assume most researchers or PhD candidates are also hyperfocused. I figured that news releases regarding the field of research is also relevant in some way, finger on the pulse sort of thing. Probably not as easy as grabbing the papers as you currently are.
