Let’s talk features: What does your ultimate KOReader wishlist look like?

Hey everyone, we all know KOReader is amazing, but no software is ever truly finished.

I wanted to open up a discussion and see what features, custom plugins, or workflow shortcuts you are all actually craving these days. Whether it’s a specific gesture mapping you need, a deep UI customization tweak, or just a small quality-of-life improvement you feel is missing, what would be at the very top of your wishlist if you could add anything?

ReadingGoal — Updated fork with bilingual support, streaks, history, rest days, and more

Hey. Sharing an updated fork of the readinggoal plugin. The original was made by u/ardabooo and then forked by syhnmzln — credit to both of them for the solid foundation.

I've been extending it for my own use and figured I'd share it since it grew into something maybe more complete.

1. What was already there (original + fork)

- Set a reading goal by percentage or page number

- "Finish in X days" book completion goal with adaptive daily targets (recalculates each day based on how much you've read)

- Progress in the status bar (top and bottom), compact and verbose modes

- Daily/weekly page goals per book or across all books

2. What I added

- New goal types

- Read X more pages from here — relative goal, no need to know your page number

- Finish by date — pick a calendar date or counting days manually

- Adjust today's target — manual override for the adaptive daily target without resetting everything

- Rest days — mark dates you won't read; the recalculation skips them so they don't "penalize you"

- Suggest a goal — the plugin looks at your reading history and suggests a daily target slightly above your real average

3. Stats

- My progress — quick snapshot of all active goals

- Reading history — pages read per day for the last 30 days

- Streak & pace — current and best consecutive reading streaks, average pages/day, and an ETA for the current book based on your actual pace

4. Install

- Drop the readinggoal.koplugin folder into koreader/plugins/

- Remove any previous version

Restart KOReader

5. Download

▲ 5 r/ipod

Hey everyone! I recently modded my iPod Classic 5 with a new battery, SD card, and Rockbox. I actually prefer the original OS visually, and I just discovered iOpenPod to load music without iTunes, so I’m thinking of sticking with stock firmware.

The issue is it feels a bit slow — lag when skipping songs, album art takes a moment to load, and menu navigation feels sluggish. Is this normal with an SD card? Does the SD’s read/write speed affect performance, and is there a song count limit where it gets worse?

Also, is anyone using iOpenPod long-term? How’s the experience? And what’s your setup, stock or Rockbox, which app for music, what SD card? Would love to know what you all are running!
