It's truly terrible. It's so terrible it's hard to imagine that they thought this was ready for release to the public. This shouldn't have made it past their own internal evaluations. I love the Papers app, but unfortunately and shockingly, this add-on just doesn't work with google docs. Save yourself the headache. You're better off doing your citations by hand.

Insert Bibliography In initial testing, fixes all bugs we noted and reported for the Word version. Great! Once the Word version is rebuilt, we'll be happy as clams :-)

Unusable!
"Insert bibliography" works exactly once, when done for the first time. When updating the references it simply removes the bibliography.
I bought a papers readcube subscription because papers 3 got phased out on the mac. I can't use it in word because my institutional MS office subscription won't let me install the add-on; this is a common problem that readcube acknowledges in their help pages. They recommend to use Google docs with SmartCite, LOL!! Kafka would have loved this.
From the other reviews I reckon that this is an ongoing problem. They can't seem to offer a product that is capable of proper citation management. This doesn't make sense; I'll cancel my subscription and go back to Mendeley and/or Latex/Overleaf.

Currently performs worse than just doing all the reference and citation management manually. Have been a Papers user since 2009, but I'm done now. Congratulations on ruining a great product.

Need to fix the update feature - I cannot see new additions to my lists, making this unusable.
