Customization

Once installed the user has access to 3 sources. This means you can have access to 3 different Kavita servers.
On each source, you can set up different OPDS URLs and different filter preferences. By default, these are differentiated with a number. 1, 2 and 3. You can change each identifier with your own name.

To change the name of the source

Follow the same process used for OPDS but tap "Displayed name for source" instead.

Remove filters from the filter list

The same process is used for OPDS but tapping "Default filters shown" instead. This will hide or show filters appearing in the filter list. To hide one filter just uncheck the checkbox

Sync Progress with Kavita

Kavita has progress sync with Mihon. It will automatically mark completed volumes and chapters as read in both apps. It does not sync page progress, it only syncs when a volume (or chapter if they are split) is complete.

To activate tracking go to settings > Tracking and click on Kavita at the bottom.

Mihon_tracking_settings
