Changes from Apple affects Kobo’s iPhone/iPad App
BY KGEIER ON JULY 23, 2011
Earlier today Apple has instituted new rules that affect your experience on iPhone and iPad apps. The biggest change is the removal of the ability to shop witin our app.

Here’s what this means for Kobo users:
  • Your books are safe! You can continue to use the Kobo app to read them, explore Reading Life, and enjoy all the other fun and engaging reading features from Kobo you’re familiar with.
  • With this change, iOS users wishing to access their Kobo account, browse the Kobo Store and purchase books will now need to go to kobo.​com
  • You can still browse Kobo’s selection of 2.4 million eBooks, shop and access your account! Go to Kobo.​com by directly opening and using their Safari browser or using your favourite web browser on your phone. Be sure to bookmark the store for future visits!

We value the opinion of our customers! Share your feedback here on the latest change.

Or with Apple at http://​www.​apple.​com/​contact/​feedback.​html.​

This change does not affect Kobo’s other eReading apps for Android, RIM, WebOS and PC devices, all of which retain the integrated eReading and in-app Kobo Store access.

Kobo continues to deliver the best reading experience on the iPad and iPhone. Look for new and exciting features in upcoming releases.
