Upgrade StorageIOS Beta: share from library search engine to add item
Hello.
I am testing out Zotero on my iPhone and was wondering whether it would be possible to add the same feature as the Safari connector on MacOS. I know it is possible to share a pdf to the Zotero library but what I enjoy about the connector is its ability to read off a reference from a search engine. Proposed feature would be the possibility to use Safari on ios, go to a library’s search engine and look up a book. When it is found you should be able to press share to Zotero and it reads off the metadata and adds it to the Zotero library.
Thank you

erazlogoThis is already possible.

stefanketBut Zotero only appears in the share sheet when it is a pdf. It doesn’t appear when it is on a regular webpage.

dstillmanedited March 27, 2021It does — that's a main feature of the app — but there's some bugginess in iOS 14 that prevents it from appearing all the time. People are reporting this with a lot of different apps. We're trying to get it to appear as reliably as possible, but ultimately this will likely need to be fixed by Apple in an iOS update.

stefanketThank you. I have experienced some weird behaviour from the share sheet with other apps as you say. Hope Apple fix it soon!!
