  1. Bookmark a page of a book using your phone in web form.
  2. Open the same book in web form using a computer or other electronic device and open the bookmark list without seeing the bookmark.

I'm noticing the same thing, but interestingly, on my computer, I was able to login using Firefox, make a bookmark, and then login with Chrome and see that bookmark.

The bookmarking of the used reader is indeed buggy. The problem is the following: If you open the bookmarked book somewhere else with a slightly different display solution, the page breaks will be different and the bookmark would not be found again as it refers to some other (on this display not existing book page). So on the same device with different browsers it will work (maybe they need to have the save screensize, so e.g. both need to be full sized, not sure about that),
