In the desktop version, when I add a reference using either arXiv or the URL, the PDF gets automatically downloaded. This seems to be missing on Zoo. After saving a link/arXiv using zotero.org/save, Zoo doesn't have the option to search for available PDF.
My current workaround is to save on the phone. After the entry gets synced to my desktop (still without PDF attachment) I then right click and choose "Find available PDF". After it's downloaded on the desktop and synced to my WebDAV, I then open in Zoo. This seems to be a hustle and sort of defeats its purpose of adding on mobile in the first place.
One option is to have a desktop/server on 24/7 just to perform this process automatically whenever a new entry arives, yet I haven't found a way to automate the right click -> "Find available PDF" in Zotero yet.
It's my understanding that the "Find available PDF" functionality is implemented locally in the official Zotero, as I saw no attachment was added when adding through zotero.org/save. How likely do you think it can be implemented in Zoo? It would be a big step toward leaving my work laptop behind for longer.
