Hello. I've just purchased this app in the hopes of being able to use my iPad to clean up or update my metadata, then send it up to Calibre on my home server, closing a large gap in my workflow, which is basically...
- Use iPad to download book or report (mostly PDF)
- Send it to GoodReader app to read, maybe annotate, and/or upload - from GoodReader - to a folder ("Calibre Inbox") on that server
- Use (awkward) Remote Desktop client app to have Calibre import docs/ebooks from that folder into library
- Continue using that awkward iPad app to edit metadata
- Use iPad Safari browser or Marvin app (and always-on Calibre server) to browse/filter/search, then download and "open-in" GoodReader app
I'm still exploring your app and so far I already seem to be able to do what I've discovered so far using my workflow above (connect, find book, etc). So my 2 questions are:
1. Can I edit and clean up my (initially synced from Calibre to your app) metadata (tags, publication date, author, etc) from the iPad and have it synced back to my "master" Calibre library on the server? and
2. Is there documentation (other than the FAQ) where I can get a clear sense of what this app does, see a list of features and learn how to use them?
Thank you
Bill
PS: I have been hoping for a Calibre 'companion' app for awhile as I live on my iPad, so thanks for doing this
