However, I'm finding that since I like to read on a Kindle, a Kobo and a phone manually syncing is also fairly easy. I've developed little techniques that work well for me. Syncing Moon+ or the Kindle is easier but not by much.

issue of Moon+ combined with the small screen: 1) does not take into account that reflow pdf( allowing at same time highlighting) is an important feature 2) dropbox does not have enough storage only 2 GB. I collect digital books, I buy also the ones I read years ago in paper. I need at least 15 GB.

Mantano allows reflow pdf and has a dedicated cloud service that would cost me 50 euro per year.
I would rather pay even 40 euro but giving me the possibility to use google drive that is 15 gb instead to pay apart for a google cloud service The problem in general is that developers prefer dropbox because has an easy API to integrate with the own code.


My only hope at the moment is that FBreader will have reflow with highlight in the future, but is not a trivial feature. If there are developer interested we could push small commitments all of us. as it is opensource
