PDF Stacks is a program for browsing PDF files (not just viewing), but it is only available for Windows and Mac.
Is there any alternative for Linux or Android?

4Can you expand on what you mean by "browsing"? – RockPaperLz- Mask it or Casket♦ Jan 23 '16 at 6:05

1We will need much more information to give good recommendations here – asking for "a tool like X" is never giving enough details, even if linked. You should always list your requirements explicitly. Please see How to ask for an alternative to some software and the questions linked to it for details. – Izzy♦ Jan 23 '16 at 13:30

I was not looking for such, but that indeed sounds very interesting (+1)! You might wish to add the sharing capabilities (reading lists/references/articles), citations and bibliography. Any word on the account needed? Any money involved? Privacy concerns? ;) – Izzy♦ Jan 23 '16 at 13:39
