What app do you use to manage your library and read books?
I am currently using the default library of the Boox device, and reading with NeoReader.
However, it seems that it cannot be managed well with the default library (or maybe I have not found the item to customize): - When searching, the book will search the entire library instead of the sub-library as I expected. - Cannot search by an author's name, or by metadata content. - Cannot mark a book as favorite, and can find it at any time in the Favorites section. The things I expected, Moon+ reader pro can meet well. But it is quite laggy when used on an e-reader. Do you have any other suggestions? I'm new, so sometimes I'll have silly questions. Thanks for reading. |

To manage my eBook library and read eBooks, I use calibre. There is no other (IMHO) worth using.

To manage my library on my Boox Go Color 7 I use the Librera App.
For transferring the ebooks to the device I’m using Calibre. Both works fine. For reading ebooks I prefer KOReader. With Librera you have much choices to search in your library and you can also set favourites. You can also open an ebook for reading with KOReader via Librera App. |

On another side note, my Boox go 6 can't connect to Calibre. It gives a long error message. Maybe I'll create a new topic to ask in the Calibre section. |

Librera for library management (it has numerous options for organising e-books and opening them directly with any reading programme) and AlReaderX (E-Ink), which is designed for Android and specifically adapted to Onyx devices, for reading e-books.
