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.
How do I add by keyword?
I installed the app, opened it, looked for “vegan”, couldn’t find it, and uninstalled the app.
You have a remarkably good UX, except for this. If there’s a way to subscribe by keyword, I think that option should be presented after fresh install (when it asks for subjects and presents a list)
thank you, you should try it again, open settings (top right corner), click on the second option “Keywords”.
i didn’t want to make the onboarding screen more complicated, that is why is slightly more hidden in the settings.
