Hence, I use CC on Android (where I can just point the reader to a shared folder containing my books) but not on iOS.

That also means that you don't use CC as your library manager, which in fact is what we designed it to be. No reader app (that I know of) can operate on calibre metadata as well as CC does, for example grouping and sorting on calibre custom columns and syncing "book read" information back to calibre.
If you use CC mostly as a transport then I suspect there are better solutions even on Android, for example dropbox with dropsync.
