I can’t think of a feature that KOReader provides that isn’t already in the Kobo software.
There are many many such features, such as
- style tweaks where a book’s CSS can be altered,
- plugins
- an in-depth progress and session tracker,
- the ability to ghost pages (like copyright and index) so they are skipped and don’t contribute to progress stats.
- RSS reader
- Progress syncing between instances on all books
The killer feature for me however was in-page footnotes, so they show up at the bottom of the relevant page rather than having to trigger a popup or follow a link.
It also supports wireless transfer from Calibre-web, direct download via OPDS from a Calibre server or online providers like gutenberg, or syncthing.
The problem is, as you’ve experienced, there are so many tweaks and features that it takes a long time to get to grips with the possibilities.









So ban guns from truck stops. Or anywhere else a kid might go. Or just ban them entirely.
