FR: Android Save Reading Progress Image (just like Save Cover Image) for More Screensaver Options

[Bluemoondragon07]

I feel sorry that this repo gets flooded with so many issues every week (sorry). But I have also been meaning to suggest this for a very long time. Ever since September, in fact.

With KOreader on Android, if the device supports it, it is easy to use the Cover Image function to update the wallpaper/screensaver with the book cover every time a new document is opened. This works splendidly on my Meebook M7, updates the screensaver instantly with zero problems.

BUT, if we know we can make screensavers like this work on certain ereaders simply by saving an image to a user-specified directory, what is stopping us from using the same method for reading statistics screensavers?

For example, the calendar and weekly reading progress screensavers that are available on the Kobo. We can keep those on Android. Render the screensaver, save it as an image in the specified directory and BOOM. We can have the same thing on Android.

Of course, not all Android devices are going to support the screensaver thing, which might make us reluctant to add it. That is why we would have to name the feature something else. save weekly reading statistics image, save monthly reading statistics image. Just like we have save cover image. That way, there is no confusion.

The alternative is just turning on the device and navigating to these statistics manually. Which isn't so bad. But, hey, it is possible to save it as an image, I think, and that would be much better, not to mention way more awesome.
