Happy Kobo user here. I was able to load up all my books from Calibri with zero friction. I've never bought from the Kobo store and it has never caused me any problems. Very user friendly compared to Amazon's ecosystem, which has literally deleted purchased books off users' devices[1].

- blairbeckwith 3y agoIs there a good way to read your own books that you load yourself, across mobile (iOS specifically) and the Kobo hardware? That has always been what's kept me tied to Kindle. The iOS app isn't great, but the "email to Kindle" feature at least lets me send my own ePubs and keep them synced across both pieces of hardware.
- kerkeslager 3y agoIf you can put it into epub or PDF you can upload it as a file to the Kobo pretty easily. It's perhaps not as easy as "email to Kindle" admittedly, but I care about file ownership.
- kaanyalova 3y agoYou can simply use this website to send yourself books using the web browser on the kobo https://send.djazz.se/ https://send.djazz.se/ Or you can host your own "Kobo store" using calibre web and use that to sync your books https://github.com/janeczku/calibre-web/wiki/Kobo-Integration https://github.com/janeczku/calibre-web/wiki/Kobo-Integratio...
