Common questions about FolioSpace Reader

FolioSpace Reader supports EPUB books, local TXT files, PDF documents, and CBZ or ZIP comic archives. Image-based ZIP archives work best when they contain page images in reading order.

Not directly yet. These Kindle formats should be converted to EPUB first, for example with Calibre, and then imported into FolioSpace Reader.

Some ZIP files use compression methods that are not supported by the system reader yet. Re-exporting the archive from Calibre, Komga, or another ZIP tool with standard deflate compression usually fixes it.

Use Komga's OPDS catalog address, not just the server home page. It usually looks like:

http://your-komga-host:8088/opds/v1.2/catalog

Replace the IP address and port with your own Komga server address. If your Komga server requires sign-in, enter the same username and password you use for Komga.

Start with the address of your Calibre-Web server, including http:// or https://. If your setup exposes a specific OPDS endpoint, use that endpoint. Make sure OPDS is enabled in Calibre-Web settings.

Your Vision Pro must be able to reach the same network address. Check that both devices are on the same Wi-Fi network, the server is running, the port is open, and your router or firewall is not blocking local network access. If you use a private IP address such as 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x, it usually only works inside your local network.

Yes, if your server is reachable from outside your local network, but you are responsible for securing it. Prefer HTTPS, strong passwords, and a trusted private network or reverse proxy. Avoid exposing an unsecured book server directly to the internet.

No. FolioSpace Reader does not operate a cloud library for your books. Local books stay on your device. Remote library requests go to the Calibre-Web or Komga server address you enter.

No. FolioSpace Library is self-hosted. You deploy the server on your own NAS, Docker host, or local server. FolioSpace Library does not host your books, PDFs, comics, ROMs, or documents.

No. Game library support only indexes and manages user-owned local ROM files. FolioSpace Library does not provide ROM downloads, distribution, or built-in copyrighted resources.

No. Library provides local catalogs, original-file streams, movie and TV metadata, seasons, episodes, and client APIs for playback state. TMDB matching is optional and requires your own token. Compatible clients handle decoding; optional HLS remains available. This is a self-hosted index and service layer, not a full replacement for every media server.

There is no local book limit. The free edition includes core EPUB, PDF, comic, and webtoon reading, bookmarks, notes, progress, offline downloads, and one saved FolioSpace Library server.

No. You can import supported files directly and read unlimited local books. FolioSpace Library is an optional self-hosted source for browsing, progress sync, and offline downloads across devices.

Pro is an optional one-time purchase with no subscription. It adds page-turn effects, the full ambient sound collection, up to five saved FolioSpace Library servers, Calibre-Web and Komga connections, Markdown notes export, and Vision Pro features such as Mini Book Mode.

Open the FolioSpace Reader Pro screen and choose Restore Purchases. Make sure you are signed in with the Apple ID that originally made the purchase.

No. The current Reading Companion uses recordings of rain, dawn birdsong, waterfalls and lakeside waves. Download each recording once; after it is saved, playback works offline. Pro adds volume controls and a sleep timer.

In EPUBs and comics, lock the full-screen menus to reduce accidental taps. Page turning, text selection and comic zoom remain available. Hold the small lock to restore the controls.

Local TXT import includes a preview, chapter detection and encoding choices. EPUB and TXT share font settings, including built-in Noto Serif SC and LXGW WenKai Lite and imported TTF, OTF, TTC or OTC fonts. Comic folder import can include loose images and supported archives or PDFs in subfolders; page spacing is saved per comic.

Local EPUB and TXT support excerpts, comments and bookmarks. Text EPUBs downloaded from Library also support these on the current device, even after removing or rebuilding the download. These annotations do not sync to the server or other devices.

No. FolioSpace Reader is designed around quiet reading, not displaying decorative 3D book models. The goal is to make books, documents, and visual pages comfortable to read in a spatial environment.

No. FolioSpace Reader is a reading app. You import your own books, documents, and comics, or connect to your own Calibre-Web or Komga library.
