Sefaria has iOS and Android apps. You can download whole books or even the 
entire library to read offline.

In answer to the original question, I use Sefaria (on my iPad) to study Daf 
Yomi and it works very well. You can view vocalised or unvocalised 
Hebrew/Aramaic text alongside the Koren English translation, and some of the 
errors in the printed Koren (of which there are many, of varying degrees of 
seriousness) have been corrected in the Sefaria version. The web version has 
additional functionality like viewing the biography an individual when you 
click on their name.

Best wishes

Subject: Re: [ha-Safran] Talmud ebooks?

Just out of curiousity, can files from Sefaria be downloaded to a tablet or 
other reading device?  While any document in pdf format can be downloaded and 
read as an ebook, the readability of the text from a pdf is inferior to a 
“manifestation” that was “born digitial”.

Hi Amanda,

All 19 volumes of the The Survivors 
Talmud<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/digipres.cjh.org/delivery/DeliveryManagerServlet?dps_pid=IE10236499__;!!KGKeukY!l5af_CN04AIeU6GTx7y-h9tYFC1CAtkAvfUpTA2yadk2kXt38VH-OPVXxbcwUQN9xFQ$>
 have been digitized and are open access.

If anyone else on HaSafran has a physical set in their personal or 
institutional collection, please take a moment to complete my 
survey<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/docs.google.com/forms/d/1_ClYEuPy7_v9642zWr_Vtmu98ib0nuRR_hkuqjq3u6c/edit__;!!KGKeukY!l5af_CN04AIeU6GTx7y-h9tYFC1CAtkAvfUpTA2yadk2kXt38VH-OPVXxbcwyc3jFZ8$>
 documenting the current locations of extant copies.

Thank you in advance for your participation,

Jackie

Dear Safranim,

We received a reader request for Talmud ebooks, for example for readers who 
have trouble getting to the library, and/or find ebooks more convenient.

Do you and/or your readers use ebooks to study Talmud? Do you use Sefaria.org 
to do so? Are there other sites or ebook vendors that you would recommend for 
studying Talmud?

I am interested in hearing your ideas and suggestions. Thanks!

Sincerely,

Amanda
