If your on-device collection isn't very large and/or your device is powerful/recent enough you can make sure you're always consuming on-device latest metadata by disabling cache in the calibre plugin settings, within KO.
The reason of the behaviour you saw can be probably explained like that: during that timeframe (3h) your cache was "newer" than the metadata itself, so it was used. After that time a new search will figure out the metadata is newer than the cache and trigger a rebuild.
tl;dr: on most devices it should work out of the box. on kindles the easiest workaround is to disable cache.

Thanks for your response. I'm not connected through wifi or anything so I don't know how calibre defines and stores libraries. I don't even use calibre on the other device. I'm just trying to have a good way to search and sort my files. I just want to make sure I understand you correctly for my scenario. Should I just disable the cache and it will store and update metadata?
