Thank you, I will !! Maybe it is something that can be build into a later version of Calibre, I think there are much more people with more then one device.
I do use the reading list plug in, but that doesn't totally sync it.

However, the configuration files are evidently not copied, so that I can't go on reading on the second device from where I ended on the first one.
But, for such a synchronisation (annotstions, reading status, aso) I guess you could use the sync feature on both devices.
For the device 1 and device 2 you have the reading list plugin as told in the reply to tshering ( https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=134856) , you plug in device one,mark them all with the reading list plugin which can do a sync.
But the synchronisation of that plug in doesn't include databases.
The sync option on the device itself doesn't sync sideloaded books,so also doesn't sync annotations and reading status of the 2 devices, not even when they both share the same Kobo account.
