iPhone Marvin Replacement

Marcy · 10-15-2023, 01:32 PM

I just bought an iphone 15 and was aghast to find that I can't install Marvin as it is no longer in the app store. I know it hasn't been supported for some time, but it is the perfect e-reader for me as it does everything I need, especially it's seamless dropbox integration.

I tried MapleRead, but found no easy way to actually get my books in there, unlike Marvin's dropbox.

Is there anything else that fills this niche? Or is there a way to get my copy of the Marvin app off my old iphone onto the new one?

Do your hands actually rot off when you use the forum search? Or just have a look at the Marvin forum

Thank you so much for the kind words.

I did search around the Apple Forum, but it's been so long since I've been online I didn't realize there was a Marvin one. Hopefully I will be able to transfer my beloved Marvin.

If you still have a device with Marvin installed and follow the instructions, 100% for sure

Well, despite the snarky reply you are still my hero. Marvin successfully put onto my new iPhone. Thank you!
