Best way to pull and sync highlights and notes across different koreader devices
Use case. I read on my Paperwhite, android tablet, upcoming boox tablet and android phone .
I use sync thing to keep my home directory in sync across devices Syncing progress works great. But wondering how to improve the highlight experience so that if I make a highlighted passage on one device to propagate to another. I believe this is solved with the use of sync thing correct because annotations are stored in the same folder as the ebook file ? Next let's say I want to export the highlights to computer or WebApp to search thru them later. Is Evernote the only way to do this ? What about other options ? I read about Joplin an open sourced equivalent but I need to host that ? Any other options? Thanks !! |

I guess you can export highlights device by device to html/json files and then join them together on your computer. Also: 3rd party apps that sync documents between devices won't handle metadata correctly as the path of metadata is device dependant. Evernote was deprecated, Joplin still works but the setup is a bit harder and you'll need to effectively run the app on your computer at the moment you try to export your notes. |

Didn't know Evernote was deprecated. Sounds like I should look into Joplin

There is another solution. Only read these eBooks on one device.

But the issue of how to get the highlights and notes is still am issue. I have a feeling I'll use the box as my primary device going forward
