### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-09-26*

I can’t get it to connect to Calibre. I’m doing it correctly. App is the problem.

**Developer response:** I’m sorry you are having troubles connecting. Are you starting with http:// ? Please contact athene@theadipost.com and we’ll work together to get it working :)

### 5/5 — Fantastic reader which happens to also support Calibre

*2026-09-27*

This is a straight to the point reader with a beautiful UI. This is the first app I’d recommend for an e-reader - and it happens to be ALL FREE!!

### 5/5 — My favorite e-reader!

*2026-09-27*

Love the bookshelf concept and its connection to calibre. I finally have all the train operation manual PDF’s from my calibre server right on my phone. Thank you for making this app!!

### 5/5 — Simple, Functional, Beautiful, Private

*2026-09-26*

I have caliber-web set up on my Synology NAS and this is now my favorite way of accessing it. The app is incredibly useful. I especially like the way that AI is integrated with privacy in mind. Thank you for making this app. I would pay for it if weren’t free.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the kind review! Made my day!

### 5/5 — Great for Calibre users

*2026-09-22*

It was very simple to connect to my existing calibre website. For a long time I used the site as a weblink, this app is so much better!

**Developer response:** Thank you, I’m happy you found value in my app. And the app will continue to get even better :)
