All this talk makes me miss physical books. No batteries, no sync, no updates. The 'progress' is a physical bookmark. The downside, of course, is you can't carry a library in your pocket. But for a dedicated reading session at home, a physical light novel with the color inserts just hits different.

I've started buying physical copies of my absolute favorites, and then if I want to read on the go, I'll... acquire a digital version separately. It's not strictly legal, but if I've already paid for the book, I don't feel bad about loading an EPUB onto my phone for convenience. The sync problem is solved by me manually finding my place. A hassle, but a peaceful one.

Honestly, half the time I forget what app I'm even reading a specific novel in. I'll spend 10 minutes opening BookWalker, Kindle, and Kobo trying to find which one has the bookmark for 'Overlord' volume 12. The sync might work within the app, but my brain has no sync for which app to open.

Sometimes the problem isn't the app, it's your account. I spent weeks blaming BookWalker for bad sync until I realized I had accidentally created two different accounts years apart—one with an old email. I was logged into different accounts on my phone and tablet. Once I consolidated, the sync worked perfectly.

Might be worth everyone's time to double-check they're using the same login across all devices. Sounds dumb, but it happens more often than you'd think, especially if you've ever cleared app data or switched between Google and Facebook logins.

The frustration with app sync is a symptom of a bigger issue: digital content ownership is broken. We're renting licenses to read in specific apps. If the app's sync fails, or the company goes under, our reading history—that personal journey—is gone. A physical book never loses your bookmark unless you lose the book.

I'm starting to buy DRM-free EPUBs from publishers who offer them (not many in light novels, sadly) and just managing them myself. The sync is a problem I own, not one a corporation can break for me. It's more work, but it feels more permanent. My library is a collection of files, not a list of permissions.

This whole thread is making me appreciate librarians. They never had to deal with this nonsense. 'The sync between the central library and the branch library is that you physically return the book to one and check it out at the other.' Analog solutions for an analog world.

Maybe we overcomplicate things. The simplest sync is having your entire library on a device you always carry. A phone with a big storage and a good reader app. No sync needed because there's nowhere else to read from. It's a limiting solution, but sometimes constraints simplify life beautifully.

Which light novel reader app syncs reading progress across devices?

I'm curious about the data privacy aspect. When you use Kindle or Google Play Books sync, your reading progress and habits are being recorded on their servers. That's valuable data. Some people might not care, but for others, it's a concern. Using a manual sync method with your own cloud storage (like a encrypted folder) gives you more control. You're trading convenience for privacy. It's a personal choice, but it's worth being aware of what you're trading for that seamless 'open and continue' experience.

I use Voice Dream Reader for audiobook versions of text-based novels, and its sync across iOS devices is perfect. I know the question was about reading, but if you consume light novels via text-to-speech while doing other tasks, this is a critical feature. You can start listening on your phone, then continue from the exact same word on your iPad. It's a different mode of consumption, but for dense fantasy novels with long descriptions, listening can be a great way to get through them, and seamless sync makes it viable.
