This is the part that has stopped me from making the reader app previously. There's clearly some demand, but at the same time, the problem must be very difficult to solve. If other reader apps aren't doing it quite the way people would like, despite having been actively worked on for years, it's probable that we wouldn't manage to do it right either.

The integration is actually pretty good now. With one caveat, the system is similar to Android. Our alpha version now lets you connect, get books and send books to another reader app. Much like on Android, the system gives us a list of apps which can handle the given book type, which we present to the user.
The one catch is that there's no concept of shared storage between iOS apps. So when CC sends a book to a reader app, the reader has to create a separate copy for its own folders. This is only an issue if people have particularly large libraries, and open each book. Until they actually open it, there's only one copy.
