I will suggest that you buy/try the
Marvin and/or the
Gerty app for IOS.
You can transfer books from
Calibre to either of those apps like this: (here I repeat myself from an earlier post)
You can transfer books from
Calibre to
Marvin like this:
In
Marvin use Get books > OPDS > Search local network > Calibre library.
You must previously have started the
Calibre Server to do this:
In
Calibre Connect/Share > Start Content Server.
It also works in 8.3. It will even transfer metadata from
Calibre to
Marvin.
The only disadvantage is that you can't see those books that are already in
Marvin.
You can also simply copy your books to
Dropbox and then fetch them in one the mentioned apps.
