Hi Mr. Smith, this is the best news I've had all day. I'm not even exaggerating. Thank you so much! I happen to have an Android phone and I read my books on either the Kindle app or the Google Play Books app, but if I happen to want to download an ePub format book, I use the Lithium app. I hope this helps. Whatever format there's an app for it :) thank you kindly 🙏
What format are your books? ePub? PDF? something else proprietary? Are they DRM'd?
I've never had to think about this on Android or PC in recent years, because there's always some program to open them (often a web browser will open them, or I can send them to my Kindle.
Ideally offer people their choice of .epub or .mobi, and optionally .pdf, too. You can create all three pretty painlessly using Calibre. (A quick internet search tells me you probably already have .epub for your Apple stuff? So you just need to create the other two versions.) David Gaughran has a great tutorial on creating ebooks. Scroll down straight to Part IV: Calibre, if you already have an epub.
Creating a generalised field for a mobi substack substrate can lead to bfp's if you don't have an endemic flurtlebinder. It's best when using e.pub to make sure that the catatonic harbingers don't get overboard by eating too much chocolate.
Remember, if in doubt, I'm selling this info at £50 per letter.
New Feature Announcement!
Totally love this!
Me too.. very excited 😊

Very easy.
I use Bookfunnel to actually *deliver* the books, as it has all the troubleshooting, and instructions, etc set up to help people load their books.
Good luck!

Always happy to help!
Ok you’ve got me. How fantastic.
I’m curious what the genre of the stories will be? A mixed bag?
