Calibre Companion for Positive User Reviews
✓ $15 per YEAR (I’ll gladly support)Thank you guys for this platform and ease of access to my book files ... and thank you for keeping the costs so low for us. I love being able to take my books with me anywhere I go with the phone in my pocket !!! 5 Stars! Thank you for dedicating your time, effort, and resources to making this a possibility. Alexandria’s library is now in my pocket. Cheers, Jesse.Version: 2.0.15
✓ Fills a niche - very usefulWhen I found myself in a situation where I wanted to put eBooks on my iPad and other methods were not flexible enough, Calibre Companion proved to be a very handy tool! Clean interface and fairly straight-forward to use, I recommend this app for the ability to browser your Calibre collection and move books to your iOS device. One recommendation: Add the ability to select what eBook format you would like to import to your iOS device from the currently available formats (ePub, Mobi, PDF, etc.). This would provide your users with even greater flexibility..Version: 2.0.5
✓ Password issueGreat app , but upgrade to v2 means i cannot use password protected connection to the Content Server. This is because the password ‘ok’ button is disabled. Also it is not clear how the new subscription service will work. Please fix the password issue asap. This impacts the rating of the app!.Version: 2.0.0
✓ Does what it says on the tin.Excellent mobile companion to the venerable Calibre app. Highly recommend.Version: 2.0.5
✓ Good overall app. Don’t like the fact that I paid for it and now have to pay subsIt’s a good app but it’s poor that I paid for it only a few months back and yet I still have to subscribe. Regardless of if the app was sold to someone else there should be a good will gesture at least not to have to endure ads when you paid for it so recently..Version: 2.0.4
✓ Amazing Dropbox catalog ontegration, works great with iOS 11I love Calibre companion, especially it's smooth Dropbox integration with my Calibre catalog. Love being able to access Calibre and my metadata without having to leave my Calibre server running on my Mac With the latest fall 2017 release, CC also works seamlessly with the Marvin 3 e-book reader..Version: v1.3.1
✓ Good programWorks very well. Has had one crash in the last 3 years, and lost the library completely, but was able to replace it from Calibre. Allows me to read epubs, but not azw files..Version: 2.0.0
✓ Worth paying for.This has made my life so much easier. I highly recommend this app. If you have a large library this will save you hours. My sister can now borrow a book from my library without waiting for me to find time to email it, and when I visit her I can browse her library and borrow whatever I want while she makes dinner. I LOVE IT..Version: v1.2.0
✓ Essential for Calibre & IOS usersThis app easily allows me to grab any of the technical ebooks in my Dropbox hosted library to read on my ipad. Highly recommended..Version: v1.3.2
✓ Background RefreshEven as a free version user, I find this app very helpful for accessing my Dropbox-stored libraries. It takes advantage of some of the primary advantages I see to using Calibre, including tag searching and cover display. The biggest complaint that I would like to request some attention to is whatever goes on while the app is in the background. I’m usually using my Calibre libraries during research, which often requires juggling multiple apps. When in the background, The app resets to the home screen and disconnects from my cloud server. You can imagine how annoying this is. I do also have two feature requests. I have two libraries in Dropbox. It would make more sense to me to select which library to connect to from the home screen, rather than connecting and loading a library & then having to switch. This seems counterintuitive, and I am constantly hunting for this selection. There’s also a bug of some sort that always indicates the library I want (but which isn’t currently connected) selected, so I have to toggle twice to get it to actually load. Finally, it would be lovely if some additional search functions loaded, as I find Subject my most useful tool for finding references. Thanks for making this handy tool! I’d be happy to chip in for its development, if you could see your way to abandoning the subscription model. There are too many of those in our lives these days..Version: 2.0.15
✓ Fantastic App!!!Couldn’t be more pleased with the ease of use, the interface, and most importantly... the content! Highly recommend this app to everyone and have already got my parents hooked!.Version: 2.0.2
✓ Love itSent my hundreds of books to a used book store, and with Calibre have my library at my fingertips..Version: 2.0.2
✓ UsefulI enjoy being able to transfer my books via my wireless network to my iPad without using iTunes and having to sync. It is a useful app. After books are in Calibre Companion I can then read them using iBooks. It would be a 5 star review if CC was also a reader and not just a way to transfer books..Version: v1.1.1
✓ Most Useful Tool for EbooksCalibre is hands down the most sophisticated and useful tool for managing an ebook collection. Filled with many controls and tools to convert, edit, sort, add information, and even be a server to other devices. Email books to devices or let them pull directly from the database. Much much more. And it is FREE and very well supported!.Version: 2.0.0
✓ This is a wonderful app!I absolutely love this app. The amount of stories I have in Calibre is insane. And to have an app on my iPad that allows me to connect remotely is awesome! The subscription part isn’t too big of an issue, about the price of KU for a month, except this one is for a year. Totally worth it in my opinion. I’ve had the app for a few days now, I haven’t come across any issues. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who wants an app that can make it easier to get your books or stories to your tablet without the hassle of connecting or emailing to yourself and what not. Definitely 5 stars from me..Version: 2.0.5
✓ A gemI find nothing more frustrating than trying to side load ePub and PDF documents to an Apple device. This app in conjunction with the PC based Calibre system does it easily and quickly. Now I can pursue two of my retirement projects. Read every Weird Tales edition that I have digitized and every copy of my college newspaper (the Cowl)for the years I was there in time for my 50th reunion next year. Thank you..Version: 2.0.3
✓ Good productI really like the Calibre app for organizing my books on my iPad. One glitch is that it shuts down when you delete an item, but otherwise I’m very happy with this app..Version: 2.0.0
✓ Very usefulWas concerned from some reviews that app wouldn’t sync. Had no problems! Hope those who are having problems solve them as it is well worth it. Works very well. Still testing various reader apps for my PDFs. Found Foxit PDF was a good option. Well worth the money..Version: v1.3.2
✓ BrilliantThis little app allows books to be transferred to an IPad via the Calibre server function, itself a nifty program. Excellent, have moved 100+ books so far, which can now be read in Books..Version: 2.0.0
✓ Easy to Use and does its jobI use Calibre on my desktop and MacBook to organize ebooks. The content server method of transferring and consolidating documents works very well and it easy to get documents onto a device and use quickly..Version: 2.0.15
✓ Calibre CompanionFantastic app. I have Apple devices and trying to get books on my devices is a always a nightmare, but not anymore. Loving it..Version: 2.0.6
✓ Great but not perfectLove the app and desktop version however if they simply added the feature of allowing you to also read your ebooks it would be perfect.Version: 2.0.5
✓ I love thisI love the way Calibre Companion provides a dependable link between my desktop and my iPad. This version is easy to set up and works very well..Version: v1.3.2
✓ Good App but Definitely Could/Should be Improved UponThis was a good purchase in my opinion, but there are quite a few glitches and download from content server issues I have noticed. Also, I really wish this app had a dark mode since the white really hurts m eyes..Version: v1.3.2
✓ Amazing!I finally can add epub books to iBooks on my ipad directly now that is has been removed from iTunes. And it’s easier than it used to be with iTunes..Version: v1.3.2
✓ Has worked flawlessly for for me for yearsMan! I just do not get these negative reviews. It organizes the books in Calibre in a number of useful ways and provides a very easy way to transfer the books. My Calibre library is stored on Dropbox, so no matter where I am, as long as I have an internet connection, I can get any of my books without connection to my PC, which is quite useful since I never take my PC traveling. Sure there are a number of other ways to set up Calibre to access your books, locally and remotely, but none as simple and reliable as CC..Version: v1.3.2
✓ Works well for meI have app on my IPad, my Calibre library on my Mac. Works well to transfer books and organize them before sending them to the Kindle app. Thank you, Hogen.Version: 2.0.0
✓ Well worth the subscriptionApp is working as expected. I fully support yearly subscription for a continuous support for amount of value this app brings. Keep up the good work..Version: 2.0.8
✓ Essential appApple makes it ridiculously difficult to transfer ebooks from Mac to iPad. If you use the wonderful Calibre on your Mac, then this app is an essential adjunct for your iPad. Worth every cent..Version: v1.3.2
✓ Brilliant AppOne of the most used and useful apps on my iDevices. I use Calibre, have a large collection of books on my computer and find this app to complement the computer version of Calibre very effectively. I love it..Version: v1.1.1
✓ UsefulI regularly use this to move stories to VoiceDream so I can listen to them as audio. My complaint is that advertising has started showing up on the app. I’m willing to pay for the app but not to get advertising as well..Version: 2.0.15
✓ CaliberBest app I have ever paid for life so much easier.Version: v1.3.2
✓ Not badNot a bad little app. I like being able to tote so many of my books with me directly from Calibre. I agree with an earlier reviewer who said the lack of a reader function is the main drawback. I had to learn how to use Marvin to be able to read the books. If the creator develops a built-in reader function so you don’t have to transfer books, this app would be GOLD!.Version: v1.3.2
✓ Great appI have had Calibre on my laptop for years and have recently installed Calibre Companion on my iPad. So easy to start the Calibre content server on my laptop and connect the iPad via Calibre Companion then download books for reading on that device. Love it!.Version: 2.0.15
✓ Calibre on the goI've been travelling for the past 6 months all around the world and I couldn't imagine not having Calibre Companion with me during this time. Knowing that I have full access to my Calibre library no matter where I am in the world is a life saver. Other apps simply do not have the organization capabilities that this app does so do not waste your time. 5/5 and highly recommend to others..Version: v1.3.2
✓ Great appUse Calibre on my computer and this is an easy way to get the items to my iPad. Works flawlessly and it’s so easy.Version: 2.0.15
✓ Version 1.3.1 buggy on ipadI have been using CC for a while on my iPad and iPhone and it has worked without flaw in the past, but since IOS 11 came out it has been kind of glitchy. It was offline for a while but now the update has made it compatible with IOS 11, it is working fine on my iPhone, but still a few issues with iPad. The app serves me well and I do recommend it for getting your books from calibre to your preferred device..Version: v1.3.1
✓ Invaluable for Calibre usersWorks so well with my Calibre library which I keep on Dropbox, and with Marvin which is my preferred e-reader on iPad..Version: v1.1.1
✓ BrilliantWhy haven't I discovered this app before? Just what I wanted. I have a large calibre library stored on Dropbox and this app connects lightening fast to it with fast search by all categories and tags with easy downloading to my ipad. Simple, fast and it works. Many thanks for developing..Version: 1.0.1
✓ You Beauty!Wow! At last I have easy access from my Calibre Library on my laptop to my iPad. Relatively easy to use for one who has limited IT skills. Thanks..Version: 2.0.15
✓ The #1 serious book management appThis is not for casual users it’s a comprehensive book/document management app for those with larger libraries who want to organise their content & synchronise it with their PC. I use it for manuals & technical documents (often in PDF format). In my experience, the developer is very responsive & open to suggestions. I have tried numerous others & this was by far the best, for me anyway. It does require some investment of time to get the most out of it, which may be the reason for lower scores by some, although I would probably agree it’s not always the most intuitive, this is probably, partly due to the breadth of functionality..Version: 2.0.15
✓ An alternate way to upload reading materialI don’t want to pay for someone else’s paid storage service, so I have tried Calibre Companion as an alternate way to upload and read books. The interface with Marvin is good. Also, I send some material to Write PDF. But it’s Calibre Companion that makes the transfer possible. Thank you!.Version: v1.3.2
✓ Product works for meThis product holds my ebook files in an organized and aesthetically pleasing way. So far havnt had any issues with it..Version: 2.0.2
✓ BestBest book app EVER!.Version: v1.3.2
✓ This app is perfect!This app is so helpful when it comes to organizing my library. It has great functionality to sort and filter based on my custom data points in calibre! This is a must have!.Version: 2.0.8
✓ Amazing!!I bought this subscription for my mom as a gift for her birthday and she absolutely loves it! There are so many stories to pick from on Calibre which makes the price totally worth it! If you or anyone you know loves their books organized, then this is the app for you!.Version: 2.0.8
✓ The Most Useful Tool for E-Book ReadersThis application has made it possible to organize my e-books using very useful and customizable categories, upload them into the cloud for on the move reading, convert file formats for my specific needs (e.g., converting PDFs to Kindle formats), etc..Version: 2.0.2
✓ All you have to do is read the instructionsFirst time I tried this I failed. Second time I realised I didn’t read the instructions. It’s actually easy to use and a fab way to have a truly organised and interactive library. Love it..Version: v1.3.2
✓ The best way to manage your ebook library!Calibre is the most advanced and feature packed way to manage your ebook collection and this app now enables me to transfer my huge library to my iPhone with ease. The app works well over my wireless network and allows me to easily sync updated metadata between my iOS devices. If you use Calibre then this app is a must buy..Version: 1.0.0
✓ Wonderful!For years, I have used Calibre to manage my library on my PC. I’m so thrilled to have it on my iPad now, using it in conjunction with Marvin. Such a great program/app!.Version: v1.3.2
✓ Works wellOnce set up it works very well. There is a learning curve. It works well with Mac Calibre..Version: v1.3.2
