Any update on when book mode will support ‘shared’ annotations?

Very soon - it's at the top of my list once I resolve all the current issues and deal with Google's forced update to 16kb page sizes. This is a major usability issue with no workaround, so I'm raising the priority over enhancements.

It's underway. I've started making the necessary changes, but it will take more time to complete and test.

Great. This is a make-or-break feature for me, and I suppose for others as well. Write on one tablet, shared by all others in book mode. Essential.
Will changes be done on the Leader tablet or on any one of the synced tablets? Will the process be real-time across the board? How will it work? As a different scenario, will a user be able to do it on a single tablet and when they synchronize, the annotations get shared automatically? Both scenarios are pretty essential I think...

Will this work also in none book mode?
Leader sharing annotations to followers via Bluetooth?

Yes, I'm setting it up so that annotations can be synchronized both with and without book mode. Users will be able to pick which layers they want synchronized. This supports situations with bands/choirs/orchestras/etc where they may want one shared layer among all users, but only that layer is synchronized, and the other personal layers are left unmodified.

Great!
Does there exist any ETA?

I don't want to give an ETA. I will most likely get the date wrong and things come up that I need to address. Right now my highest priority is getting an update out to fix the memory corruption issues with the audio library now that the nature of the problem has been identified. Just know that the next new feature I want to roll out is this and I'm partway through the development of it.

It's fully finished on Android and I'm about 50-60% of the way through porting it to both Windows and iOS. Then I just need to run through some tests and I can release the update.
