Now you have three methods to install the application.

1. From your device: go to https://github.com/koreader/koreader/releases and download the latest koreader-android-arm package from assets. Once it is downloaded just open the apk like any other download and the system will ask you for installation.

2. From your computer (needs adb, usb debugging and your phone connected through usb): go to https://github.com/koreader/koreader/releases and download the latest koreader-android-arm package from assets. Once it is downloaded install it on your phone with
Code:
adb install koreader-android-arm-whatever.apk
3. From your device: install Fdroid application. Once installed just search and install KOReader (this is always the latest stable release, but comes without translations!)

Recommended option is #1 since it allows you to update to latest nightlies at your will from inside the application and it is fully translated to a bunch of languages.


BTW, KOReader uses normal folders, not some sort of database. So If your calibre setup creates new folders under "books" you will see these folders on KOReader too.

Inside each folder you will see the ebooks. KOReader can be customized to show different information on file browser, see https://github.com/koreader/koreader/wiki/File-manager
An easier option for many people will be F-Droid.
