This would cover margins, font size, scroll behavior, and top/bottom status bars. The UI stays the same, you'd just be seeing and editing the settings relevant to your current device.
Does this make sense?
B. iPad grid view customization
A request came in to let users choose what's shown in the grid view, for example: hiding tags or series, and showing only cover, title, and author.
Does this sound useful to you?
C. Automatic dark/light mode while reading
The idea is to automatically switch reading colors based on time of day. Two possible approaches:
1. Simple: just invert colors at night.
2. Preset-based: you save multiple color presets, mark one as "day" and one as "night", and they switch automatically when enabled.
Which do you prefer, or do you have another idea?
D. Calibre metadata
I'll be adding Comments as book description from Calibre. Two questions:
1. What other standard Calibre metadata would you like to see in the app?
2. Where should it appear: in the library under the (i) icon, or somewhere while reading, or elsewhere?
EDIT: Just an information: I will wait for a few (ideally more) answers, not responding to each immediately.

A. No to A, I think. Not sure what you mean syncing across ipads. I read on both an 11" ipad and a small 8" ipad. I have different margins set between them due to their size.
B. Not useful for me.
C. Definitely No. I don't want different modes depending on time of day. I just want the current black text on white background.
D. Just tags and notes for me. and only in the library view.
E? It would be nice to be able to change the middle margin in a 2 Column Landscape mode. Also, the size of the headers and footers could be smaller. Neither of these are requirements for me, just nice to have.
