An open API to replicate and automate the app functionality for backup locally is not incredibly much to ask for.

Nobody is asking for a free sync server.

Bingo, Boox support WebDAV or FTP file sync and it's a breeze to use. It pains me how much of modern tech doesn't support the very standards half of it's built on. All to moat users into their domain.

I agree with your point more generally but FTP, specifically, deserves to die.
