Hello :) I have (had) a great experience with “Papers”: https://www.papersapp.com. I used it continuously in medical school, medical research and during my brief stunt in quantum physics. It’s a very flexible software, available on most platforms. Give it a spin, you won’t be disappointed!
Check out ReadCube Papers (https://www.papersapp.com/) . It has a fee (~$3 per month), but they have a free trial. It works as a reference manager similar to others like Zotero. But they have a great PDF reader that works on web, laptops, and iPad app that allows for annotation.
Although it looks fantastic and very useful, even outside academia, have you read the privacy policy?

In addition it relies heavily on the US-EU Privacy Shield, which is no longer a valid legal basis for processing and transferring personal data from the EU. source
Use Papers! (https://www.papersapp.com/) I had a similar problem but I recently found this software. It is cross-platform. iOS, Mac, PC, android, Web, GoogleDoc, MSOffice, everything.
But it is paid tho. $3 per month, not so bad. And it is some other great feature Mendeley does not have. Definitely check it out.
Going to persuade my school to dump stupid Endnote. I am wondering who uses that crap in the world right now? It is so expensive and so crappy. Such a shame.
Miss Mendeley so much btw.
I’d suggest using ReadCube Papers. I’ve been using it for nearly a decade now. Supports marking/highlighting on the PDF (including Apple Pencil support for iPad), searching, and citation manager. It is web based so you can access it from literally anywhere and they have apps for all the major platforms.
