Full summary	Google Scholar PDF Reader enhances PDF viewing in Chrome. It leaves PDFs unchanged except for presentation, while adding an AI-driven outline, in-text citation previews, and fast navigation to figures and references. Highlights and comments are saved to your Scholar Library. Copy common citation formats without leaving the paper, and save articles for later reading or citation. Choose light, dark, or night modes for comfortable study.	The Scite Chrome extension surfaces citation context directly on pages you use for research—Google Scholar, PubMed, and other publisher sites. See not only how many times a paper is cited, but whether those citations support, contrast, or merely mention the findings. With one click on a citation badge, open the full Scite report with detailed citation statements. It works automatically on pages you already visit for research, helping you quickly assess a paper's impact without leaving your workflow. Stop relying on counts alone—understand the actual context behind research claims.
