Can I read my ebooks on my Kindle, Kobo, or Nook, etc.?

Modified on Tue, 4 Feb at 12:42 PM

Ebooks from Bookshop.org must be read on either our Apple or Android app, or via a web browser, with the exception of DRM-free titles that can be downloaded and transferred to your reader app or device of choice.


Users of Android based e-ink devices, that have regular access to the Google Play app store (Boox, Meebook, etc), should be able to download and read from our Android app. Mileage may vary depending on the device.


Due to Amazon and Barnes & Noble's proprietary digital rights management software (DRM) and publishers' DRM requirements, it’s not currently possible to buy ebooks from Bookshop.org or local bookstores and read them on your Kindle or Nook. We are working with Kobo to support Kobo devices later this year.
