Descripción

Study with JW Library® on multiple devices, while still keeping your notes, markings, and bookmarks in sync.

You know the problem: You study with JW Library® on different devices - and in the end, you have two versions, that you can’t easily combine anymore. With the Library Merger this is a thing of the past!
The Library Merger allows you to quickly and easily combine two JW Library® backups into one. Simply open both backups in the app (you can even send them via AirDrop). The app will merge them into one. If it finds a conflict (like two bookmarks at the same place, or two markings that overlap), you can choose which version to keep. In the end, you have one merged backup which you can easily restore on your devices. The process - if done regularly - literally takes you seconds!

Library Merger is still in its early stages and is being actively developed. The code is open source and can be found on GitHub. If you found a bug or have suggestions, feel free to contact me.

Versión 0.7.6

Adding support for importing backups of different versions. For some reason, JW Library might switch between two versions when exporting a backup, which previously resulted in incompatibilities when trying to import it to Library Merger. Recent "Backup incompatible" errors should be fixed now. Sorry that some of you might not have been able to merge for the last couple of weeks.

Extremely useful

For those who use the JW Library app on more than one device, JWLM is an amazingly helpful tool.

I no longer have to limit myself to using one device as my primary one — the only one where I add notes, highlights, etc. — and then pushing those changes to my other devices. Instead, I can add these to either my iPhone or my iPad, confident that once I merge the changes through JWLM and restore that backup to the devices, every device will have everything.

Thank you, Brother Skorczyk!

Initial Impressions

I just started using JWLM and am very optimistic. As I am just beginning, I have JW Library on my PC, iPad and iPhone so this is going to help a great deal, however, the initial process of syncing in really laborious. In the Merge process, It begins with the comparison between the two backups. I have to select each one individually and this is taking a very very long time. Is there a way to make one backup dominant and make the merge easier; in particular the markers? I get it for the written notes and am happy to be able to select these, but there and so many markers that is is taking hours to select them. Can you help with this please?

Awesome

Thank you for this much needed tool. One thing I think would make this tool even better is if the file name displayed when doing the comparisons and after you’ve selected a file. It would make it easier to know which change to accept when merging.
