Using KOReader from Calibre Sync

Incanus · 03-15-2025, 11:33 AM

Hello:

I'm trying to use KOReader with Calibre Sync library manager (CS further down) on my Galaxy A54 Android 14 smartphone.

I'm able to acces and manage a local drive copy of my Calibre library using CS: it correctly maps all of the available metadata.

However, CS won't open for reading ebooks on mobi or epub files using the installed KOReader app.

Any ideas or recommendations?

Awaiting your kind reply,

Hopefully fixed by https://github.com/koreader/android-...ncher/pull/546

Try again in a week or so

Just a reminder: even if it works KO won't be able to open files in place, so each book you open that way will be duplicated in KO cache.

Thanks for your prompt reply: it would seem a new version is on its way to release.

I'll be waiting for it to try this fix.

Much obliged,

That's to be expected with KO.

Many thanks,
