I was astounded by how bad the books app on iOS was. I just want to open a book to read that I have a local copy of, but I need an internet connection to redownload it. If I close the app for a moment it needs to be downloaded again. If your on a rate limited connection it means you might have yo wait more than ten minuets to acres a book that’s right there in your downloads folder already.

>I was astounded by how bad the books app on iOS was. I just want to open a book to read that I have a local copy of, but I need an internet connection to redownload it. If I close the app for a moment it needs to be downloaded again. Not to my experience. Books just need to be downloaded once, and they stick. Maybe it's based on some calculation like available device space?

  I have the exact opposite experience, downloaded some books to read on a plane but they were gone when I boarded.
