Description

"100 Best Android Apps of 2019" - PCMag(https://www.pcmag.com/article/362295/the-100-best-android-apps)Calibre Companion (CC), recommended by calibre developers, is three applications in one:- a superb device-based calibre library organizer- a high-performance WiFi-based calibre device emulator- a calibre content server and cloud provider (Dropbox, Box, Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, and Amazon Cloud Drive) client1) CC is a device-based calibre library organizer. Once you put books on your device using one of the connection methods described below you can:- view a books metadata (author, tags, series, rating, dates, etc.).- sort and group books by their metadata.- see book lists by cover or by list.- mark books read and sync this information with calibre.- launch your book reader application to read a book (works with most reader applications except for Amazon Kindle for Android on non-Fire devices).2) CC can connect to calibre over WiFi and be detected by calibre as a device. Once connected, you use calibre to move books to and from your device. Calibre automatically updates all the book metadata stored by CC to match the latest in your library.3) CC can connect to calibreā€™s content server or to your cloud provider to browse your library and download books to your device. Cloud providers currently supported: Dropbox, Box, Microsoft OneDrive, and calibre libraries on the device or on an SD card.For more information see our FAQ (http://cc_faq.multipie.co.uk/)Notes: 1) CC is not a reader app. You must install and use one of the many excellent reader apps available. 2) CC requires that you use calibre calibre 0.9.02 or later, available at http://calibre-ebook.com/. Some CC features such as syncing book read information require newer versions of calibre.A free demo version of CC is available in the Google Play store. Install and test with that version if you have concerns that CC wont work on your network or isnt what you need. To get it, go to http://www.multipie.co.uk/calibre-companion/ and click the button for the demo version (links to Google Play dont work here).Permissions explanation:- Allow Wi-Fi multicast reception: multicast is required to be able to find calibre without requiring you to enter an IP address.- Users with Jellybean (Android 4.1): You will also see a permission about ā€œTest access to protected storageā€. This is caused by a change Android is making regarding SD card access, and simply means our app can save books on your external storage.- Bug fix for large files being downloaded from cloud

Reviews

  • ★★★★☆   Jim Gluckin 2 years ago

Application works very well for me! I would like to see the listing of books by title on a large server (as displayed on your phone ) available by initial alphabetical letter first so that you do not have to scroll down forever to get to titles that begin with the latter letters in the alphabet. This way you could divide large databases into 26 parts prior to beginning a search. Title listing should be done the same way as authors. Overall application works extremely well!

This app has been abandoned by the developer. The current owner who is not a developer ignored the community and is now trying to sell the app.

I wish it had a reader embedded as well, but there's not much point in developing one with the other options like moon+ available. I'd love to see a partnership with one maybe?

Really easy to use

Calibre Companion has been broken for the past month or so. I've uninstalled and re-installed but can't get it to work! Stopped uploading, gave updating message that stuck, and currently does not even open. Was excellent for so many years. Hope the new owners can restore a brilliant program.
