I recently switched from manual downloads to Shelfmark, and I highly recommend it, makes downloading books so much easier, especially from Anna's Archive.

I looked into Moon+ Reader, and I would recommend readest instdead.

Wow, shelfmark looks really cool. I like the customisation moon+ reader offers for the UI, but find the progress sharing a little lacking, so will take a look at readers, thanks.

Sorry for recommending readest, the webdav feature is locked behind paywall

No worries! Always good to see what alternatives are available. I bought moon+ reader a while back so happy to support good products.
