Hi there,

I can load books onto my Nia while connected to my laptop. But sometimes I'm traveling and I only want to carry my phone, not my laptop.

I primarily use sideloaded books (DRM-free ePubs).

I thought, based on the documentation, that I would be able to follow the following steps:

1. Download DRM-free ePub onto my iPhone.
2. Open the ePub in the Kobo iOS app.
3. Then the Kobo iOS app would sync this ePub onto my eReader (the Kobo Nia).

Step 3 appears to not be happening.

Is there any way to sideload books to a Kobo *without* using a laptop?

Thanks.
