It lets you organize, read, and manage books across multiple formats including EPUB, MOBI, AZW3, PDF, CBZ, and audiobook formats. Features include metadata enrichment, a built-in browser reader, Kobo and KOReader device sync, OPDS catalog, multi-user support, and a BookDrop watched folder for automatic imports.
