Poke 3 - Library

Hi

I'm just the new proud owner of a Poke 3. I use the device mainly for reading books (what is it's initial purpose I guess). I also have several other readers and have to admit, that from a hardware point of view, Poke is really over the average. 

However, one thing which frustrates me deeply: the options of the library... Yes, you can sort with author or with name... But what about the book details? It's really minimal...

No synopsis for side loaded books, sorting by authors, series, collections and filtering is very limited. 

I would expect to see my metadata properly in the library + some custom metadatas like: number of pages, date, read/not read, tags... On top, the bookshelves are to be created manually... What about an automatic creation of bookshelves?

I was used to use Kobo, and it's library is much more performant (even if not complete neither, but many times superior to Boox). 

As the hardware is so good... and it's really good... why not, in a next upgrade, give some time to enhance the library features.

  Yes i agree.  I have just received the Nova 3 and I find the library management to be lacking.  Most of my books are in a series and would love to be able to group by series.  I have tried other apps but the default reader is the best, except for the metadata.
