Hello,
I use Calibre on my Windows 10 Computer to fetch news every Friday.
It then sends it to my Kindle account, I get the news on my Kindle (and on my phone through the Kindle App).

I could schedule Calibre but computer needs to be switched on. So every Friday, I have to run Calibre and press fetch news.

I have an old smartphone, broken screen, but I can still use it.
Could I install Calibre Companion on it and let it download the news auto every Friday ? Or is there any web server based solution to do the job (I don't own a server and don't want to buy one) ?
Thanks and take care !
