Can you add / change columns when viewing connected device?

I was wondering how to add custom or other columns when viewing ebooks on the device in calibre.

Unless something has changed drastically in the last while, the quick answer is you can't.

To quote Kovid Goyal from a decade back:

Device view is mostly intended for dealing with books on the device that aren't in the calibre library.

Not for device view, no.

You can create custom library columns and a view manager view to display then and filter to ondevice:true. However, this really only works well if you have all your books (or at least records of them that are matched to device books) in the library.
