Feature Request: Save Reading Progress

Open privacymatters1 opened this issue 2 years ago • 5 comments

It would be awesome to save the progress of reading (page number or %) and offer the possibility to continue reading. The best would be to store the reading progress on the Jellyfin-Server, so it could become a cross platform feature.

Hi,

Unless it isn't working, I'm pretty sure I did add that feature.

That's interesting.. I installed the F-Droid version and it doesn't work for me. Specifically, I have read a book in epub format until the 2nd chapter. But after reopening it starts from the beginning. I'm not a developer, but if I can help by giving more information to better understand the problem, I'm happy to help.

ah, epubs are often pretty pesky. I will take a look into it

It's a really cool Project thanks for that! I have another Idea that's a little similar, did you thought about integrating Bookmarks? Not just the one where you stopped reading, manual control and maybe the possibility for more than one bookmark.

Experiencing this aswell! I prefer epubs since the text is easier to extract (some readers can use it to enlarge text etc) so this is a bump for me haha. I can install the debug version and provide any logs needed. Can access adb aswell.
