Where are the free books?
Phil Wagner
I have no complaints with the reader itself. It works very well for me. But the reader used to come with a large selection of free books I could download to read. Then, a few days ago, I opened the app to discover the free books had gone away. Why were they removed?
Books not available

Several books after downloading are giving me an error message - no longer available, expired. Very frustrating- have to go back and download again.

Stopped opening ACSM files in iPadOS 13.1.1 Warning if you need to open books requiring AdobeID from ACSM files, it appears to have stopped working under iPadOS 13.1.1 Worked fine till I upgraded today to iPadOS 13.1.1 Now Bluefire does not even show up as an option. Downloaded ACSM will not open in Bluefire.

What happened to the sync function?
Electric_Dreamscape
I don’t see the sync function on the latest version? What happened to it? In cold rebooted but the option that used to be a switch is no longer there? It is enabled by default now?
EXTREMELY HELPFUL SUPPORT STAFF!

BlueFire is a splendid platform for accessing info and content from publishers to book store staffers. And help for less-than-tech-savvy users is always available from a great support team. A recent Apple update bugged up the works for me, but a prompt, clearly written, step-by-step response to my question fixed the problem for me on the first try. Thanks to Bluefire for a cool product and great customer support.
A redeeming Christmas story
Jothebookgirl
A cautionary tale... RC is Santa’s little brother and has a crazy theory that sometimes it’s better to take things away from people than to give them things. This made him the laughing stock of the North Pole and led to a big argument with Santa. Now RC wears green and lives at the South Pole. He contends his theory still has merit. Can an elf and a human sister help prove it? An elf named Marmel is the head of the labeling department at the North Pole. His job to make sure that all humans get sorted onto either the “Naughty” or “Nice” list. But this Christmas, it seems that this no one has been listed on the naughty list. This has never happened before during Marmel’s 107 years in the labeling department. It’s due to North Pole Santa’s new rule. This makes Marmel suspicious, so he decides to dig into the records, and the Krumwerth family catches his eye. He deems them to be “certifiably hopeless” and definitely, undoubtedly Naughty! Well the fact is, they’ve been on the Naughty List for two years running, so he must officially inform them that a third time will put them on the Permanent Naughty List. Muriel makes his appearance to Amanda Krumwerth to deliver the warning. Shocked to be talking to an elf, she nevertheless takes Mermel’s warning to heart. She begins the struggle to get her family members back into the Christmas spirit. As you read, I think you’ll notice some parallels with Dickens’ A Christmas Carol. Author, Canfield puts these age-old themes into a thoroughly modern setting. For example none of the family.’s devices are functioning any everyone is totatally dependent on being online. Now they are hard up to find something to do. I found the book to be a bit wordy and preachy, but think there is a large audience who will find the book redeeming with a happy ending. Maybe even take to heart to put down the devices and focus on others.
Poor workflow; clunky controls: Dropbox integration not working
kingfro
My two favorite ePub readers, Hyphen and Marvin, seem to be abandoned (2 years with no updates). So I’m on the hunt for a new ePub reader. And buddy, this ain’t it. The controls are not well thought out. The user experience is not well considered; when I launch the app, take me to the book I was just reading! And the kicker, Dropbox integration is not currently working, but ios 13.2 was just released and maybe those kinks will be worked out shortly. I’ll give this app another try in a couple of weeks to see if Dropbox integration is working. One positive aspect of this app: it’s still being maintained.
