How to connect the external device #1

Hello! I found your project which sounded really interesting to send quickly my Tachiyomi downloads on my Kobo Ebook. But I don't understand how I should connect the Kobo to my phone, to be able to sync with the app (I assume I need to use Koreader on my Kobo). Could you give be some tips? Do I need to do something with FTP, or a SSH connection on my phone to be able to sync with my Kobo? Or maybe eveng using a cable beetween the two devices?

Hello! Yeah, currently the app only supports transfer with OTG cable connected to the device, you don’t even need koreader.

Just connect it and then in the external tab select the device folder you want to sync on.

Feel free to ask more questions if you have problems!

This has nothing to do with your app but I'm curious. Do you directly transfer your mangas downloaded with Tachiyomi (as cbz files I assume, otherwise It doesn't seem to work on the reader), and you read it without issues? Because It seems I can't read them with the default reader on my kobo (it doesn't surprise me, It's probably because meta datas are missing), but with koreader the reading is often messed up.

Yes I usually transfer them in .cbz and read with koreader. I read +30 volumes and didn’t have any problems so far.

These are my settings:

(If you hold the option you can set it as default)

Also make sure to disable continuous reading.
