How to Manually Add a Kindle Book to Your iPad or iPhone

Several readers who have purchased the Kindle version of “The Anarchist’s Tool Chest” have asked how to add it to their iPhone or iPad and read it with the Kindle app.

This was once a difficult process, but with an update to the Kindle app in January it’s easy. So the first thing to do is make sure you are running the newest version of the Kindle app.

Now connect your iPad or iPhone to your computer and launch iTunes.

Click on your device in the left-hand sidebar of iTunes. Now click on the “Apps” tab at the top of the page.

Scroll down a bit and you will see a section called “File Sharing.” And your Kindle app will be listed. Click on the Kindle app.

Now you can add your Kindle version of the book to the app. Simply click “Add” and navigate to the file. The next time you sync your device, the book will be waiting for you in the Home section of the Kindle app.
