How to synch macOs and iPadOs, in both directions

I've been traveling for a couple of months and haven't used my laptop. Then, for a couple of weeks, I couldn't use my iPad.
As a result, I have extra comics on my iPad and extra Comics on my MacBook.

Normally, I synch always from my laptop to my tablet by importing the comics through USB, just by dragging them in Finder > Ipad > Files > Yacreader. There, I can only see the folders, not the comics.

Is there a way to synch between both devices so that they both get updated with what they do not have?

Summer is back, and I have the same issue.

Can I add this as a feature request? Atm, if I want to sync my iPad library to my MacBook's I need to backup on a third place (icloud, dropbox, google drive, etc.), then copy manually the comics I'm missing and eventually, erase that backup.

With iPads become every time more and more capable devices, I would like to see the possibility to sync the iPads library to that of the MacBook.

Thank you!

Sorry for not responding to your first post. I will think about adding an option to the backup functionality (Settings -> Backup) to send comics directly to YACReaderLibrary.

Thank you! That would be very helpful. Also, I was thinking, to be able to backup on a drive connected to the laptop, with the iPad connected through usb, could also do the trick. But, that's probable more difficult to implement, right?

PS: How come you, of all people, have a negative karma? Shouldn't you have like one zillion karma point?

Also, I've noticed that when using the backup option this time, it's not backing up all comics.

You can actually do a back up to an external drive, just connect the drive and then select it as the destination in the backup screen.

I didn’t notice the negative karma, I don’t know what happened…
