Hey David, thanks for your work on this extension.

I'm running Win10, Calibre 5.12(x64), Annotations 1.14.

Cannot get Annotations to work with any of the following 3 devices. Despite creating the annotations column, etc. I have had it working in the past, though not with these newer devices.

Issue per device:

-PW4 (5.13.4). Connect by USB, device recognized and can see books, Annotations tries and says it cannot import any ("No annotated books found on device: Unable to find any annotations on Amazon Kindle matching books in your library."). There are definitely annotations on certain Kindle books that are synced between all these devices, and there's also a MyClippings.txt file with some annotations--opened and checked it.

-Samsung Galaxy phone (Android 11). Annotations are all synced to books in Kindle. Device connected by USB and recognized by Calibre. However "Fetch annotations" option is grayed out.

-Ipad Mini v5 (iOS 14.14). Connected by lightning cable. Device not recognized by Calibre.


So, the questions boil down to these:

- Is there any way to attach one's current-gen smart devices (Android 10/11, iOS 14.x) to Calibre and *directly* import the synced Kindle annotations?

- Thots on what might be blocking the PW4 from importing annotations? This one I expected to work, even though I had doubts about the smart devices.
