App for reading Academic PDFs

pdfpreview

My question is very simple.

I read a lot of scientific papers, full of equations, references etc… and sometimes going back and forth through all the pages is annoying.

A nice feature of TexShop is the ability to preview referenced equations by hovering over the reference (see screenshot below).

Is there an app for MacOS which allows this feature while reading PDFs? Preview is fine for my purpose, but it misses this nice feature.

Thank you!

You can open pdf files with TeXShop even if you don't have the corresponding TeX files.

In the Finder, control-click on the file and choose Open With / TeXShop.

In the Terminal, do open -a TexShop foo.pdf.
