Trying to get your ebooks to follow you around is a legit struggle. I've had the best luck with Moon+ Reader Pro. You do need to set up a cloud folder (Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive) for your books, and the app reads directly from there. Once that's done, any reading progress gets saved back to that cloud file. It's a bit more manual setup than some, but you get incredible control over the reading experience itself. This method means your library and progress sync across any device that can access that cloud folder, not just Android. The customization options are worth the extra few minutes of configuration.

Navigating the world of ebooks can feel like herding cats sometimes, especially when you're juggling multiple devices. But yeah, syncing ebooks across Android apps is totally doable—it just depends on the ecosystem you're invested in. Apps like Kindle, Google Play Books, and Kobo have built-in syncing features that keep your progress, highlights, and notes consistent whether you're on your phone, tablet, or even a web browser. I've lost count of how many times I've swapped from my phone to my tablet mid-chapter, and it's a lifesaver to pick up right where I left off without fumbling around.
That said, not all apps play nice with each other. If you're using something like Moon+ Reader or Librera, you might need to rely on third-party cloud storage (Dropbox, Google Drive) or manual transfers, which can be a bit clunky. I learned this the hard way after painstakingly organizing my EPUB collection, only to realize my progress didn't sync automatically. But hey, it’s a small trade-off for the customization those apps offer. The key is sticking to one ecosystem if seamless sync is your priority—otherwise, a little DIY effort goes a long way. Personally, I’m all for that Kindle magic where my dog-eared pages follow me like a loyal shadow.

For public domain classics, the Standard Ebooks project is amazing. They make beautifully formatted, free EPUBs. If you download one and put it in Google Play Books, you now have a gorgeous, synced copy of 'Pride and Prejudice' or 'Dracula' on all your devices. It's a fantastic combination of high-quality, free content and a free, syncing reading platform. Makes diving into the classics incredibly easy and pleasant.

I just ask my partner what page they're on if we're reading the same book on different devices. Low-tech social sync. Works every time, and we get to talk about the book. Recommend.

What about Scribd? Their subscription gives you access to both ebooks and audiobooks in their catalog. I'm pretty sure your reading/listening position for any title is saved across your devices. However, you don't own the books; you're streaming/borrowing them as long as you're a subscriber. The sync works well within their walled garden, and it's a great deal if you consume a high volume.

I had a terrible experience with syncing on 'Aldiko'. It just never worked consistently for me. I'd lose my place constantly between my phone and my Fire tablet. Maybe it was user error, but after fiddling with it for weeks, I gave up and switched to Moon+ Reader. Sometimes the simplest solution is to avoid the apps that make syncing feel like an afterthought. Your mileage may vary, of course.

ReadEra’s ad-supported model is fine. The ads are just a small banner. For a free app with solid sync, I’ll take it. I donated to them anyway because I used it so much.

I'm a big fan of apps that use their own dedicated cloud, like BookFusion or PocketBook, over those that piggyback on Dropbox. The integrated clouds are optimized for the task. With Dropbox sync, I've had issues where the sync file gets locked or conflicts if I'm too quick switching devices.
A service built for reading data seems to handle the rapid, small updates of page positions better than a general file-syncing service. The experience feels more cohesive and less like a hacky add-on.

Remember the old 'Send to Kindle' trick? You can email a PDF to your Kindle's email address, and Amazon converts it and adds it to your Kindle library. From there, Whispersync tracks your progress across the Kindle app on Android and any Kindle device. The conversion can mess up complex layouts, but for text-based PDFs, it's a magical way to get rock-solid Amazon-grade sync.
You're then using the Kindle app as your reader, which is fine but not amazing for PDFs. However, the sync is arguably the most reliable in the world. It's a weird workaround, but for people already invested in the Kindle ecosystem, it's a seamless way to bring personal PDFs into that synced world. A classic case of thinking outside the app.
