the calibrebox app does exactly the same . they are following google's spec for file sharing between apps.

the old CC "read" action just told the reader app where the book file was - no extra copies were made, but google wants to put an end to that behaviour
Any way to have an option to have the old "read" action? Because having multiple copy kind of defeats the purpose of CC as a manager only, especially when using ReadEra (with Storage permission given, it will put the copy in the Download folder).
