BookFusion eBook Reader & Management Sync Across All Devices Android, iOS & Web

[maxyn83]

Searching for a Marvin alternative and your app is mostly mentioned. Tried it again today (free version) but just adding a book is so bad in the "upload a book" section. Still no way to select multiple books and add them in one go via dropbox/icloud. Also, is it possible to use the app without having to login?

Personally, I have never used it but I do not observe very wide gaps. However, that is my personal preference/perspective not all other readers and this is why we made the reading experience customizable. It will be added, we placed it on our backlog


As I said, I understand it is very important to you and we will look at adding it. We have no issues there. Hope you understand. Thanks for the feedback JSWolf, hope you have a good day/evening today.

Most of those have nothing to do with making the reading experience better. All they (at most) care about is changes to how books are stored/handled. I would think that making the reading experience much better would be top priority. That should be what yoi care about most and then the other stuff.

BookFusion isn't it yet until it has hyphenation.

JSWolf,

Thank you for your input. We have heard you and will be adding it to be released in the next 2 weeks. Hope once this is released it gives us some good karma in your book that we want to make the reading experience much better.

We already have an upcoming release being reviewed by Apple so we won't be able to put it in that release but the next one in 2 weeks.

Selecting multiple books - This is an oversight and agree that you should be able to select more than one book at a time. This will be resolved in 2 weeks.


Dropbox/iCloud/One Drive/Google Drive - Support for uploading from these services will be added won't be within the next 2 weeks. Integration needs to be done not just with iOS but with Web and Android as well


Use app without login - Yes. You can use the app with all features unlocked for free without logging in with up to 10 eBooks. You can skip the sign up screen. This is currently for iOS only . (Android app needs to be refactored to support the same)

I want to say we are the best with EPUB 3 but try it for yourself with and EPUB 3 books you have and let me know what you think. You do not need to create an account. If any of your EPUB 3 books fail let me know and we can get it fixed.

But we implemented strong EPUB 3 support previously.

Really wish I can pay to unlock the 10 ebooks only without the need to login. I don't want to use your cloud service as I already pay for onedrive and icloud. Would also rather have my books on my phone.

While I really like Calibre, I see value with the greater integration that BookFusion brings to the party.

I haven't tried the Calibre plug-in yet but I have a few questions/comments based on playing with your web app.

• Formats
• Are there any plans to support audiobooks? I would really like to have a common place to put all of my books!
• Does BookFusion support multiple formats for a given book... similar to Calibre?
