I only want to see my library, not download

ChipAHoy · 07-14-2020, 06:36 PM

I have a Lenovo tablet, and am trying out the Demo Version of CC. It seems that I can download ebooks, but I don't want the app for that, I just want to know what I have in my Calibre library.

Does anyone know if this is possible on an android device?

Thanks for any help.

PS I see where it says, to browse the library, disconnect and reconnect t Content Server. But the tablet isn't always attached to the computer with Calibre. That's why I wanted an app that shows my library.

or if you have moon reader app, just link it to the calibre OPDS content server

from moon faq:
How to connect to my Calibre OPDS server?

In Calibre, you can click "Preferences" button on top bar, then click "Content Server" -> "Start Server" -> "Test Server", this will open a web browser, write down the URL in the browser (e.g.: http://192.168.1.100:8080/ or http://192.168.1.100:8080/opds);

then in Moon+ Reader "Online Library" tab, click "Add new catalog...", input this URL, restart the reader to access your own Calibre server.
