Hi

I'm trying to help a friend who is so attached to old ebooks in her Stanza app, she is terrified of upgrading her phone or even updating iOS. She has Stanza running on iOS 10, on an iPhone 6.

I want to help her get the books off the phone so that she can upgrade in one of the ways. Most of the google search results on performing this task are from this site, but go back years. So I'm hoping someone here can give me an updated answer.

The most salient post I could find seems to indicate that the only way to get these files is through a tricky process of randomly named files and no extensions. https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=165792

Does that method still work? Is there an easier or better way? We'll buy software if needed. Thanks for reading.
