You make note of my sideloads in your database. You make note of my sideloads in collections and host the collections data on your servers. You track the last page I was on in a sideloaded book in your database on my device in order to open to the correct page again. Why will you not sync the last page read across my devices and in your Kobo for Android app?

The lack of this syncing seems contrary at best considering the level of access you have. Help a repeat customer reading on your devices and software across platforms out, please.
Hmmm... you want Kobo to store your sideloaded book information on their servers? Consider the privacy implications for a Canadian company -- check an earlier discussion on this point.
