Easy Migration and Cloud Integration
Moving your Calibre library to the cloud is straightforward:

- Click "Move current library to new location" and wait for syncing to complete.

Important Notes and Compatibility
Calibre Sync is not a book reader app. You’ll need to install a dedicated eBook reader to enjoy your books. The app supports Microsoft OneDrive (Personal shared accounts) and utilizes WebDav API for Nextcloud and OwnCloud, requiring a case-sensitive file system (Linux, recent macOS, Windows NTFS with case sensitivity).
The app only needs storage permission to store downloaded files, making it a safe and efficient tool for managing your eBook library. For devices with external SD cards, ensure that the external storage is available for download purposes.
Support and Feedback
Calibre Sync offers lifetime support without any additional charges or subscription fees. Your feedback and reviews help us improve the app further, ensuring a better experience for all users.
