I originally paid for this app and now I’m expected to also pay a subscription fee? You should have launched an entirely new app if you wanted to change your business model.

This 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.

Please don’t make me have to click past the ad every time I log in.

I 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.

When trying to input server data, the keyboard covers up the buttons and fields, preventing you from seeing or selecting covered fields or even clicking ‘OK’ to confirm your entry. Also, unless you’re going to pay a subscription for what largely appears to be an app with the same functionality as the free web page created by Calibre for accessing books on the server (which works great in iOS except for the constant need to re-enter credentials as though I was accessing a financial account), you’ll be confronted with annoying ads for the paid version every time you open the app. I might consider paying if it was a one-time fee, but a subscription model is for me, like with most things, out of the question. I’d rather pay $200 once than $5 per month—I don’t want to have to remember the charge, and I want to have something approximating genuine ownership of the things that I buy.

I don’t think subscription is the appropriate model for this app. My stuff is stored in OneDrive, so I view this app as a portal to access my existing content that I could easily just access by opening OneDrive itself. Tweetbot used to do it so you would pay $5 for each new installment of the app (version 2, version 3, version 4) instead of a monthly subscription. I like and appreciate Calibre and hope the devs get paid but that’s just my two cents. I’d gladly pay a $5-10 one time fee every time the app gets a big upgrade. The only thing I don’t like about the app is how I have to tell it to open OneDrive every time I want to reconnect. I only have one library, so I wish it was automatic.

I paid for this app a short while ago. First switching to a subscription model without creating a pro/classic fork like most other apps and now having nag screens to click through in addition to constantly scrolling ads is just too much to deal with. Deleting app and finding a alternative.

I bought this app and have never been able to sync with my computer. Not any configuration. Not any troubleshooting step. I keep waiting for updates to fix it but they never come.
