Drag files onto the grid, use File → Import, or pick from iCloud Drive. Alcove makes its own copy — your originals are never touched. Calibre import is coming.
Tags, ratings (0–5 stars), reading status, and series tracking. Filter and sort any way you want. All metadata editable directly in the detail panel — no forms, no save buttons.
iCloud sync keeps your Mac and iPad in lockstep. Ratings, tags, reading status, and cover art follow you automatically — no manual export or import.
Alcove is a library manager, not a reader. Open any book in Apple Books, Kindle, Marvin, Legible — whichever app you prefer. Set a default per format in Settings.
