Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the synchronization services?
You can pick how you want your data to be synchronized between devices.
- JetReader.net: Data is stored in a database on the JetReader.net server. Stored data will not be shared with any other parties. This is the fastest of the synchronization services, since it uses an optimized API created specifically for JetReader.
- Dropbox: Data is stored in the Apps/JetReader folder in your Dropbox. You need to give JetReader access to your Dropbox account, but JetReader can only read or write data to the Apps/JetReader folder, and cannot see anything else in your Dropbox.
- OneDrive: Data is stored in the Apps/JetReader folder in your OneDrive. You need to give JetReader access to your OneDrive account, but JetReader can only read or write data to the Apps/JetReader folder, and cannot see anything else in your OneDrive.
- Google Drive: Data is stored in the Apps/JetReader folder in your Drive. You need to give JetReader access to your Google Drive account, but JetReader will only read or write data to the Apps/JetReader folder.
- WebDav/NextCloud/ownCloud: Data is stored in the Apps/JetReader folder on you WebDav server. This works much like the Dropbox service, but WebDav can be self-hosted, and is supported by a multitude of online services.
Due to the overhead of the Dropbox, OneDrive and Google Drive and WebDav client libraries, using these are significantly slower than using a JetReader.net account (especially Google Drive is quite slow). Normally, however, synchronization happens in the background, and the extra time usage should be irrelevant.
