Your setup sounds ideal for BookFusion. Would love to get your feedback.

Calibre plugin: https://www.bookfusion.com/reading/calibre

There are some gaps and features that are missing but they all will be filled with our new release in Q3 2020.


This looks interesting. Is stylus-support (iOS and Android) planned? Free-form marking and writing notes directly on an ebook (in whatever format) would be awesome.


Could you take BookFusion for a spin and let me know what you think?

There are a few gaps but a brand new and refreshed platform is being launched in Q3 2020


Looks interesting, will try it out thanks.

Right now, I support sharing via my own Ubooquity/elibsrv servers which run OPDS as well. OPDS works well with Kybook, which is what I run currently on iOS.

Unless this supports an OPDS server, I don't see myself using this long term, though. OPDS on Kindle (with KOReader) makes my life so much simpler (I can browse my entire collection on the Kindle).


BookFusion supports PDF/EPUBS and several other formats. You can then create a manual list of custom organized books by doing one of the following:

1. Creating a Custom Series and then adding each book. Example Scotts List

2. Create a virtual shelf and then add the books there - https://bookfusion.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/36003058387...
