Stanza development (and support) has officially been stopped by Amazon

Are there any other eBook apps for iOS or any other mobile platform that will let you browse the Calibre content server/ODPS database from within the app?
Ones that I know about That support the OPDS interface are:
  • MegaReader/QuickReader (which are variants of the same reading software)
  • eBook Search, which is the browse part of the above readers with no reading ability but options to transfer downloaded books to another app (e.g. iBooks) for reading.
  • i2reader
There may well be others on iOS. There was talk of the Bluefire reading app adding OPDS support but I do not know if it ever happened. One should also not forget than on iOS one can download books using Safari from the HTML catalogs and transfer the result into a reading app such as iBooks.

Not sure of the Android scene. The only one I am reasonably certain of thEre is Aldiko.
