About Folio: Daily Medical Journals
The peer-reviewed reader for physicians who care about how they read. A front page for medical literature — laid out like a journal you'd keep on your desk. Pick your specialties. Open Folio. Read. No ads, no streaks, no ranking by who screamed loudest — just the literature, ranked by what actually matters: journal quality, citation rate, and how recently it was published. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose your specialties from 50 options, from Cardiology to Child Psychiatry. 2. Folio pulls fresh peer-reviewed papers from PubMed every day — the top 50 from each specialty, surfaced in a clean editorial feed. 3. Open a paper. Read the abstract. If it's Open Access, read the full text natively in Folio. If it's behind a paywall, jump to the publisher in one tap. MADE FOR PROFESSIONAL READERS • Listen — papers read aloud, hands-free, with lock-screen controls. Citations and reference lists are skipped automatically. • Four-color highlighter for full-text papers. Anything you highlight is saved with its complete text — yours to keep. • Journals shelf — the latest issue of every journal in your specialties, plus NEJM, The Lancet, JAMA and the other flagships. New issues land in your feed the day they publish. • Follow any journal — search 150,000+ titles in any language and shelve their new issues. • Offline — your last feed is always readable, connection or not. • Optional daily reminder about new papers in your specialties. One a day, never more. • Honest relevance scoring — Relative Citation Ratio (NIH iCite), journal rank (SCImago SJR), and recency. No black box; the inputs are explained in-app. • Native full-text reader for Open Access articles (CC-BY, CC-BY-NC, CC0), built from Europe PMC's structured XML. Real typography, not a stripped-down webview. • References and citing papers for every article, one tap away. • Open Access detection across 40M+ papers via Unpaywall — a green dot tells you there's a free full text before you tap. • PDF priority when Open Access — Folio goes straight to the PDF, LibKey-style. • RIS export to Zotero, Mendeley, EndNote, and Papers with one tap. • Read Later, Collections, and Saved Searches — your library, on your device. DESIGNED THE WAY YOU ACTUALLY READ No tab bar. No badges. No streaks. New York serif for titles, SF Pro for UI. Light and dark mode, both hand-tuned. Dynamic Type throughout. PRIVACY BY DESIGN No account. No analytics. No tracking SDKs. Your specialty list and saved papers live on your device, not on our servers. DATA SOURCES Article metadata from PubMed / MEDLINE (U.S. National Library of Medicine). Citations from NIH iCite. Open Access status from Unpaywall. Full text from Europe PMC. All open scientific infrastructure, all credited in-app. Folio is not affiliated with or endorsed by NIH, NLM, or any publisher.
