![]() IBooks is Apple’s e-bookstore, and as such offers some impressive iPad-specific features. Bluefire also links to the Feedbooks online store so that users can download and read books (mostly public domain books) without leaving the app. This support even extends to library books, although importing them requires a few more steps than the official library partner app, Overdrive. For readers, the killer feature is built-in support for Adobe DRM, which means that, after logging in with an Adobe ID, all books in ePub or PDF format that use Adobe DRM can be read in Bluefire regardless of where they were purchased. The app is polished, easy to use and navigate, and is fully customizable- users can modify aspects of the interface (i.e., set actions for page turning, set brightness, sort books, or lock orientation) and the reading experience (i.e., set background color, margins, text size and color, or use the publisher’s defaults). ![]() Bluefire Reader is an unbranded version of the software platform on which a number of booksellers have built their apps, and it’s easy to see why they chose it.
