Top 5 Ebook Apps For Ipad And Iphone
Apple iPads and iPhones are great devices for reading ebooks. There are many ebook reading apps available for you to choose from, and they’re free! This article will introduce you to some of the most popular apps and give some suggestions on where you can find some ebooks for it. All of these apps can be downloaded from iTunes for free.
1. Apple iBooks App for iPad and iPhone
The iBooks app is the most native Apple ebook reading application that you’ll be able to find for the iPad and iPhone. It currently has a 3.5/4 rating from reviewers in iTunes. If you are new to ebooks and you have an iPad, this app will be a good place for you to start. Since it is so integrated into the device, you won’t have to worry about using any external software. You can also use it to read your own PDF files.
Where to find ebooks: iBooks includes Apple’s iBookStore, where you can purchase ebooks and then download them directly to your iPad or iPhone. It’s very similar to downloading music from iTunes, so if you’re familiar with that, you’ll be downloading ebooks in no time.
2. Amazon Kindle App for iPad and iPhone
The Kindle App was created by Amazon to allow you to read your Kindle ebooks on devices other than a Kindle. If you can’t find an ebook in iBooks, you might be able to find it on Amazon for the Kindle. This way, you can make use of Amazon’s large ebook selection on your iPad without having to buy a separate Kindle e-reader. The Kindle App will let you start reading on one device, and pick up where you left off on another device. Amazon has many classic books available for free that you can access through the app.
Where to find ebooks: The Kindle App is made to be used with Kindle ebooks that you purchase from Amazon. Find those in Amazon’s Kindle Store.
3. Kobo App for iPad and iPhone
Kobo has free e-reading apps for both iPad and iPhone. You can use these apps to read ebooks that you’ve purchased from Kobo, even if you don’t have a Kobo eReader. You can search for ebooks, buy them, and download directly to your device with the Kobo app.
Where to find ebooks: If you’re planning on using the Kobo app, then you should buy ebooks from Kobo. You can download the ebooks directly with the Kobo app, or you can find them online.
4. Barnes & Noble Nook App for iPad and iPhone
The Nook App from Barnes & Noble lets you read all of the Nook ebooks on your iPad or iPhone, without having to own a Nook eReader. Barnes & Noble’s Nook system is unique in that it will let you lend ebooks with their “LendMe” software. You can also sample any of the Nook books for free before you buy.
Where to find ebooks: If you want to read ebooks using the Nook App, then you should get ebooks from Barnes & Noble’s Nook store.
5. Bluefire Reader App for iPad and iPhone
Bluefire Reader is the best ebook reading solution for using Adobe DRM ebooks on the iPad and iPhone. This app works with Adobe’s “Content Server” which means you can use it to read DRM-protected PDF and EPUB ebooks on your iPad and iPhone. This requires “authorizing” the reader with an Adobe ID just like you would on a Sony Reader, Nook, or other e-reader devices. Library ebooks can also be read with this app (where available).
Where to find ebooks: You can use Adobe PDF and EPUB ebooks from just about any ebook retailer. This is great because it means that you’re not tied to iBooks, Amazon, or any other specific ebook seller.
All of the apps above are excellent choices for reading ebooks on your iPad or iPhone. I recommend iBooks for those who are new to ebooks, and I recommend Bluefire Reader for those who are more familiar with using apps and transferring files between their computer and iPad or iPhone. No matter your level of technological skill, there is a solution for you.

How do I download adobe reader & flash player onto iPad?
You can’t. ipad do not support flash, that is one of the cons ipad users criticise.
Does the iPad support PDF Adobe reader?
From what I’ve heard, no.
Can you download games onto the ipad?
I need to know if you can download games off a disc onto the apple ipad. For example can i download Sims 3. Also is there adobe reader 8 on it or do i need to install that 2 if it is even possible. The ipod touch does not allow you to download Adobe reader 8 so i would like to know.
iPad’s do not have a disk drive, so you will not be able to transfer disc games (like The Sims 3) onto an iPad. The only games you’ll be able to play on the device are games found in the App Store. There is a Sims 3 app made for the iPhone, but you can expand the screen and it looks just as nice. You also cannot put Adobe Read 8 on an iPad, but the app iBooks does have PDF support.
Is there anything like the Ipad2 that will support adobe flash, adobe reader, and java?
I just bought an Ipad 2 so that I could take my kids to the park and still be able to do my school work only to discover that it doesn’t support adobe flash player, reader, or java. I don’t want a laptop I already have one but would really like some sort of tablet any ideas?
Hey MegaFatBitch people like you remind me of why I never come on answers. Thanks for your input much appreciated @hole.
How did you not know that iOS didn’t support Java or Flash!?!? Why do you think BlackBerry and Android make such a big deal about being able to use Flash? I recommend the Motorola Xoom or BlackBerry Playbook if you want a tablet that does Flash…and both the BlackBerry and Android mobile operating systems are written in Java, so no worries about being able to run Java on them.
How can I convert a Borders ebook to an iPad ibook format?
I just got an ipad and also bought an ebook on Borders. Is there any way to make the ebook readable on the ipad? The book is downloaded to Adobe Digital Reader as an ebook, because I thought that would somehow work, but now I am just stuck!
Thanks for any help
Download the free Borders software to your iPad, authorize it to the account you used to purchase your e-book and transfer it over.
