Notes:
- Calibre Sync is not a reader app. You must install and use one of the many excellent reader apps available.
- Only Microsoft OneDrive for Personal accounts (shared) are supported. Please email us if you observe any inconsistencies.
- Due to restriction in Box API, Calibre Sync must acquire write permission in order to download files, download is not a read action on Box. Calibre Sync guarantees that it will not perform any write actions against your data in Box cloud account.
- Calibre Sync use WebDav API of Nextcloud and OwnCloud services, and it requires case sensitive file system to work properly. Therefore, you must make sure that your libraries are set up on case sensitive file system (Linux, recent MacOS, Windows NTFS with case sensitive enabled).

Seems useful, but no iCloud

This is exactly the app I was looking for with one exception: there is no iCloud integration. I hope the developers can eventually add that functionality.

Developer Response ,

Good news, recent version of the app now supports iCloud. Please try it out.

Just opened up a whole new world…a crack

I have thousands of ebooks and have been limited to accessing them via Calibre on my pc, which I then use to transfer to my Kindle.

Yes I can access the books via OneDrive on my iPad but it’s not the smoothest or best managed. So I was delighted to find this app. Actually, I’m delighted to find this app works as advertised and quite quickly. It’s much easier to find and download my books and digital comics.

My one critique is that it wants to use the Mail app, rather than what the user has set their default mail app to be. I prefer Outlook so I never bothered to setup the Mail app. When I tried to use the “send to Kindle” function it failed because of this limitation. And because I’ve configured my accounts in Outlook and the mail setting, I can’t add them to Mail.

While I appreciate being able to download and read on any of my iOS devices, I prefer doing so in Kindle as it syncs progress across all devices.

For me, five stars would be:
Fix the app to use the configured mail app
Have an option for “automatically send to Kindle”
Set preferred reading apps by type ie set Comix as the preferred app for cbr
Being able to launch preferred app from this app

Developer Response ,

Hi,

Thank you for your insightful review. Unfortunately, the below suggestions might not be possible to implement at the moment due to the limitation of iOS:
1. Fix the app to use the configured mail app
2. Set preferred reading apps by type, ie set Comix as the preferred app for cbr
3. Being able to launch preferred app from this app

However, in the future, if there are changes to iOS specification, we would be gladly implement those suggested features.

About this option: "automatically send to Kindle", would you mind explaining more details how that should work? We will consider implementing that if it is possible.

Cheers.

Developer Response ,

Hi, it looks like that you might have set up your libraries incorrectly in Google Drive, could you please contact us at calibre.sync.help@gmail.com so that we can assist you further.

In addition, the app is not a book reader as in description, it is a library utility. Cheers.
