It didn't work for me at all (searching metadata by isbn, or kobo id, nor covers). But because it's some heuristics on cloudflare (?) side, it can work differently depending on geographical location...

See, this is why encryption is bad. It's not just "older" devices, it's every other device that doesn't support given DRM. That's my problem.
