Stanza : An alternative to iBooks






Well, recently I got into a habit of reading a lot of books and that was indeed accompanied by finding apps to read them on my iPod while I am on my way to college or otherwise! I tried the Apple's E Book reading app, iBooks. The app worked fine till I had not jailbroken my iPod, but when I jailbroke it, iBooks stopped working. Then, I started finding alternatives to this app and found out about this amazing app called Stanza. This app is a free app that lets you download E books from the internet and even put them into the app's directory directly from iTunes on your computer.

Stanza LogoI found reading the books with this app much more comfortable than with the iBooks app and hence I decided to share it with everyone around here! The app comes with various themes to choose from. There is a light colored theme, a dark theme, and many others that you can choose according to your mood/lighting etc. Also, you can control the font size, the animation and all other settings as you like! It provides you with one eBook and a Guide pre-loaded in the app.

Go ahead download and install the app right now! Click here to download! After you download the app, follow these steps to transfer your eBooks.
