How to Buy a Kindle Book On Your iPhone or iPad
Now you can browse the best selling Kindle books or use the search bar at the top of the screen to find the specific book you’re looking for.
Find the eBook you want. I’ve gone with Good Intentions: A Supervillain Story, a novel by How-To Geek’s own Michael Crider.
If you’ve got more than one Kindle device or app, tap the “Deliver To” option, and then select the iPhone or iPad to which you want the book sent. And don’t worry—that selection is just where the book gets automatically sent. You can sign into any other Kindle device or app tied to the same account and download the book there, too.
Next, tap the “Buy Now With One Click” button. If you aren’t already signed in, you’ll be prompted to sign in now.
And just like that, you’ve purchased a Kindle book on your iPhone or iPad. Head to the Kindle app and it should show up in your library automatically.
How to Buy an Audible Book On Your iPhone or iPad
With the Audible app, things are marginally better. You can use the Discover tab to browse audiobooks, and then add them to your Audible wishlist. You still can’t buy them in the app though.
To buy an Audible audiobook on your iPhone or iPad, you need to once again use your mobile browser. Head to Audible.com and find the book you’re looking for. I’ve gone with Terry Pratchett’s absolute classic, Thud!
Scroll down and then choose either the “Buy Now with 1 Credit” option (if you have credits) or the “Buy Now for” option to pay whatever the audiobook costs. Tap “Confirm Purchase” and the book is added to your Audible library.
