Sorry, but I can't understand your message. If you're saying that you can't transfer books to your iPhone using iTunes then I don't think that's correct. Here's a link to the BARD Mobile App's user guide. Section 8.6.1 talks about transfering books to your iPhone using iTunes. https://nlsbard.loc.gov/apidocs/BARDMobile.userguide.iOS.1.0.html

No you do not need to download anything from your computer. Actually
there is no way you can transfer Thanksgiving to you too your iPhone my
status changed from earlier versions of iPhone. If you have downloaded
NLS bored app you just need to go to search is it in the West catalog or
something like that type in the book he want ever in Braille or audio
save to wishlist and after you do that go back into the app I think if
I'm not mistaking you hit Search even that or you hit where you
downloaded books are in it something about wish list and your books are
there automatically and the books in it download and that's all you need.

    When you do this, they end up in the right place. If you have books
    on your PC, you can use iTunes to transfer them over to your phone,
    but I have yet to do it this way. I'd have to look up the
    instructions or mess around with it myself first to figure it out.

        One last thing I'm sure you know the answer to--if you could--I
        imagine
        you have to copy talking books from your computer to the
        I-Phone.  Is
        there a special area or folder where they are supposed to go, or
        does
        the software figure that out?
        Thanks,

            You can download it directly from the App Store on your
            phone. This is
            how I install most apps on my phone. Roughly, the steps are:
            1) Go into the App Store.
            2) Double tap the search tab at the bottom of the screen.
            3) Find the search field at the top of the screen and type
            in the name
            of the app you want to install. In this case, just type BARD.
            4) You'll see some suggestions right below the search field.
            If the
            BARD Mobile app is one of the suggestions, double tap on it,
            otherwise, double tap the search button. Double tap on the
            BARD Mobile
            app in the search results.
            5) Double tap the get button and the app will be downloaded and
            installed.

                I have an I-Phone 6.  I've been gradually learning to
                use it--some by
                accident.  I've discovered a couple of books from
                National Braille Press
                on this, and have purchased those.  I haven't gone
                completely through
                those yet, but I'm interested in downloading the app
                from NLS to enable
                reading of digital talking books on my phone.  I gather
                that you have to
                go to the I-Tunes store for this.  Is this something you
                need to do
                through a computer, or can you download it directly from
                your I-Phone?
                I do know how to read--or listen, but I also believe in
                taking a
                short-cut when possible.  I'd appreciate any help on this.
