An application designed for Apple’s mobile operating system (iOS) enables users to access and read digital books on iPhones and iPads. These applications often support various ebook formats, such as EPUB, PDF, and MOBI, and may offer features like adjustable font sizes, brightness control, bookmarking, and note-taking capabilities. Examples include Apple Books, Kindle, and Google Play Books.
Such applications provide a convenient and portable alternative to physical books, allowing users to carry an entire library on their mobile devices. They offer advantages such as instant access to a vast selection of titles, often at lower prices than print versions. Their development has mirrored the increasing popularity of ebooks and the widespread adoption of mobile technology, contributing to a more accessible and environmentally friendly reading experience.
