RE: Re: Is there anyway to back up bard books on a phone that you're getting rid of?

2022-08-02 Thread Christopher Chaltain
You can do this on an Android phone, or at least you could, but I don't see how 
this would be possible on an iPhone. I think the developers can give you the 
option of storing things in iCloud, so they would be backed up and then could 
be restored. I guess they could also make storing your books on one of the 
cloud storage options, like One Drive or ... they could also making streaming 
an option, so you'd have access to them as long as they're in the BARD system. 
Streaming would also allow you to keep your place in a book from device to 
device.

Although I get why people might want to download and keep their books on the 
phone, this isn't anything I would want. I don't need my books around forever 
once I've read them, and I don't have a problem redownloading books I want to 
read again. I do have a few reference books I keep on my phone, but like I 
said, I'm OK with redownloading these whenever I get a new phone. Like I said, 
this just works for me.

Lana.  I just did a phone to phone transfer from an iPhone 8 to my new
13 pro max.  My audible and bookshare books from voice dream reader transferred 
over to my new phone just fine, but not my bard books.
