I can use several different reader apps each set up for a specific kind of book. Maybe I want to use a different font, dictionary, UI, etc when reading non-fiction in English compared to fiction in Russian - well, no problem, that's easily doable using several different reading apps.
Can you list those apps and devices that allow you to sync reading positions between multiple devices, apps and, likely, ebook formats? Considering the number of people who have seemingly had issues with syncing reading position, annotations, whatever between two different apps using the same ebook format, it would be interesting to see what you are using. Even using PDF, that seems to be a difficult task.

Can you list a few ereaders that allow you to sync reading position between sideloaded books using the stock apps? On Kobo ereaders, you can use calibre to keep track of the latest read position though that does require a USB connect for the sync.
