works perfectly, thank you!

it took less than two minutes from downloading this app to viewing my entire Calibre library that's stored on Dropbox. No plugins to add to Calibre and no demand that I create yet another account. Thank you for building an app that just works. 🙏

Developer is there to help

Original review: Synced with my calibre library from Dropbox. It sees all the books. Everything shows up. Doesn’t open any books. API error. I got excited for a moment for how slick it was.

Updated: Developer figured out the issue, updated and fixed it. Great job!

I dug into this in the code and fixed a few things that could be causing you issues. I can't guarantee it will work for you when the app updates on the app store but if you still have issues, please reach out to me at calibreviewapp@gmail.com and I will work on fixing it.

Amazingly Perfect!

I love this app and highly recommend it. I was able to sync my entire Calibre library of 33,000+ books from OneDrive in less than TWO minutes! The layout is perfect and I appreciate being able to tap on the author’s name to see all their books and the series name to see all the books in the series.
