KOReader

KoReader #

https://koreader.rocks/
is a Jewel of a document viewer for e-ink devices:
it's an e-reader, supports plugins and many formats.

I am using it on a Kindle Paperwhite 11th gen (PW5) and on a Kindle 4 (K4).

document location #

store your koreader documents NOT under /Documents because it increases the battery usage due to the kindle's automatic machanism of indexing the content of that folder,
any other folder under root can be designated as KoReader's home folder.
Like /KoReader_Docs.

Wallabag plugin #

the Wallabag plugin is built in, at least in the 2026-07 release,
to configure it with a service like wallabag.it you need to:

edit koreader/settings/wallabag.lua adding these lines:

        ["client_id"] = "your client id",
        ["client_secret"] = "your client secret",
        ["directory"] = "/mnt/us/KoReader_Docs/Wallabag",
        ["username"] = "your username",
        ["password"] = "your password",
        ["server_url"] = "https://app.wallabag.it",
