Calibre Sync
Frequently Given Answers:1. You need to have a reader application installed on the device (such as Aldiko or CoolReader) in order to view the files.
2. If the app seems to "sit there and do nothing", it is likely that your Calibre Library hasn't been configured to allow Wireless Device connections OR that you have a firewall preventing it from doing so.
3. Kindle for Android only opens PDF files called from outside their app. Still working on a hack which can make integration with that app easier.
4. For integration with Nook Simple Touch's Calibre plug-in, set the Root Folder to "My Files/"
Version 1.1.3
* Ability to add IP addresses manually
* Ability to browse Device Library by Tag
Version 1.2.0:
* Search function for Calibre Library

Too confused to setup! Calibre Companion (CCDemo) is much better.
I couldn't connect because it never allowed me to enter a username, just the password.
Cannot connect. "No Calibre Catalogs Found."
It does not sync, it downloads one-by-one... Not as useful as I hoped for...
No matter what I tried it did not connect to my calibre server.
I don't know what happened, but starting just yesterday it stopped working. It establishes a connection but when I send a book to the device it loses the connection completely. I reset my phone to default and reinstalled calibre on my computer, and it worked for about 10 books and now it's doing it again. I wish I knew what was wrong. I rely strongly on this app working.
Had some hiccups setting up, with the connection frequently resetting itself and then not being able to connect to the calibre server at all. Restarted the phone, and it seems to have solved the issues there. Overall inelegant, but seems to get the job done okay.
Having a huge library, and being a finicky reader this app is perfect. It's one of those apps I rely on regularly (haven't drag/dropped books since I started using it) that works better then I'd expected (kind of like Calibre itself exceeded my expectations). Push works great (sending books from within Calibre) and I still get a little thrilled when I hear the notification that my book has loaded on my phone. Pull works great. Browse works great. Sometimes server discovery doesn't work perfectly so I'll end up entering the IP address manually. But once it's set up it "just works". I'm very thankful for this application.
After finally linking it to my divice I can't readd the book because it says "No compatible application installed to read this file!" Please help me as soon as you can with this. It's sad cause I won a digital book.. and now i can't read it!
Finds my server fine, syncs great. However, search is not returning all results. Verified by searching within caliber as well as another similar app, this one not returning all the results it should, unfortunately.
Great way of accessing all my books. It integrated really well with Calibre and now I can easily get the books I want to read on my Android (using Moon+ 4 Reader), now I just need a way to sync my last reading position!
I use this app a lot . It works well with the PC version of calibre, nice and simple. Thanks dev team for my books!
Works perfectly. The best part for me is the app size. SD card support for Lollipop users would make it the best. Hoping for it in a future update.
Works fine on a Nexus 10. It took a little bit to get it connected to Calibre and pointing to the right directory for Moon Reader but it works great after the setup.
Not once have i had a problem with this app. Easy to understand and use. A big thank you to the developers.
If this app's ideas are fully implemented it would be a useful app; but for now, no. Password setting is completely ignored when trying to retrieve opds.
This app can aid in wirelessly syncing in your home over your local wifi. If that's all you want, great. I myself have a calibre server set up so I can access my books anywhere I have an Internet connection (so long as my home pc is on) and this app cannot log onto it. I use Calibre Companion in stead - fuller features, it can do local and wan.
It does what it says it does. Had it up and running in under 5 minutes with my Nexus 7
Exactly what I need! Now I can import books from my computer's calibre library over WiFi.
Great app, works seamlessly with my android devices, both push, pull, and merging. Awesome.
It doesn't establish connection with my device and computer. I did every thing as described.
No connection
does exactly what I need it to do
Why not direct cable connection ?
Worked first time and just keeps working. Will get 5 stars from me when the target directory is read recursively, and a progress indicator is added. Those two things are not showstoppers, but the first is important. The second is just a nice to have. Regardless, this little app does exactly what it says and does it realiably. Very nice! Developer nailed it! Responded to suggestions positively and quickly. Well done!
Was having some issues with the app, but everything is working great now. Next update fixed all the issues I was having.
It would be nice if you could keep a connection history somewhere, but overall still a 5
This is a good app to sync your calibre library from your computer to your phone or tablet! :D but please add the tile view option for the books :) thank you :)
no feedback when connection fails. need to input two ports?! check out Calibre Companion, costly but working.
No longer works with updated versions of Calibre... fairly pointless still having it available for download IMO...
