| 2025-01-24 |  | | I like your app. Just one problem is that when you want to send a message to another person, the app will be slow in case of speed, especially by checking previous messages. |
| 2025-01-17 |  | | Very nice app. It's great for promotion of scientific results and networking with colleague scientists. It can be used to share or promote papers, presentations, posters, theses, dissertations etc. Very useful for early career scientists. |
| 2025-01-11 |  | | I haven't played it yet I needed to find a app I wanted in Google, it isn't in play store so Google gave me this app, to install idk what it does but the reviews say it's great or not because of bugs, so I might give it a 3 ig that's cool stars right?? Anyways I kinda think it's a great app, but I already gave stars so no more stars, that's all I know while reading the reviews. |
| 2025-01-07 |  | | Honestly too little too late. The app's functionality isn't great (e.g. many things still take me to the website instead of the app) and ResearchGate isn't fun anymore without the RG score. The "interest" scores only reflect activity on researchgate itself which which makes them biased and basically meaningless since most people aren't "active" on the platform in the social media sense. I can get a much better idea of interest from a Altmetric. |
| 2024-12-19 |  | | This app has a terrible user experience. Very laggy and feed refreshes while I'm attempting to scroll further down the list resulting in me having to attempt to scroll even further to see the article I'm interested in. I'm probably just going to delete it and use the desktop version of the site. |
| 2024-12-09 |  | | I love the fact that ResearchGate allows me to share my work with the world so easily. The comments allow helpful criticism, as well. Iron sharpens iron .. |
| 2024-11-17 |  | | I am unable to download full text via the mobile app, the download acts as though it is starting but fails immediately. |
| 2024-11-14 |  | | I feel fulfilled with a few of my publications on ResearchGate. It is intriguing to get people to read the publications so fast, and I am glad with the feedback from people in my inbox 📥 and DM. |
| 2024-11-13 |  | | A good research tool but has issues for most students to key into.but a good idea. |
| 2024-11-13 |  | | Thank you for the wonderful App to surf about different research papers. Hope to add a feature of filter according to different categories. |
