Sorry to revive this somewhat old thread but my issue is directly related and I was hoping someone here might be able to offer some guidance.

I have Koreader on a Boox Nova Air 2 and my Android phone. Progress sync via the Koreader plugin works great but I am also wanting to sync my highlights as I use them to save my place when I am unable to finish a chapter. This way I can see the highlight on my other device and continue exactly where I left off.

To accomplish this, I setup Syncthing on my Boox, my phone, and my PC (this to act as a sort of always on syncing location). It's working fine but the problem I am running into is thus:

I keep Koreader open on my Boox device at all times, when I am done reading on it, I simply lock the device and Koreader stays up in the background. Because of that any changes that get made to the book's sidecar files do not carry over to the Boox before it is rewritten to have the data that's most recent on the Boox itself and not on whatever device I read on last.

I believe if I were to exit out of Koreader when I am done reading on the Boox so that the next time I open it, it will open with fully refreshed files, it would probably work. However, I am trying to keep from doing that.

I'm hoping there's a setting or a method that I am missing and that someone can point me in the right direction? What I would like is for whatever highlights I have made to be merged between my devices. TIA!
