Honestly, we could have a lot of sources to get books and read but iTunes or the iBooks sync feature only recognize the purchased books from Apple, this is narrow and restricts the transferring of free books from iPhone to PC. If we could choose, we can use Leawo iTransfer instead as this is more powerful and useful for us to transfer books from iPhone to PC.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-h3\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>From this post we have learned that if we want to sync the books we read on iPhone to PC, we can have a couple of options to achieve that. We can choose to transfer books from iPhone to PC via iTunes like what we do for other data sync between iPhone and iTunes. In addition, we can use the sync feature within iBooks to transfer the books to PC. Basically this is the same as iTunes. One important thing to note is both iTunes and sync feature within iBooks only apply to purchased books. Therefore, we came up with a more flexible and powerful app \u2013 <strong>Leawo iTransfer<\/strong>. This lightweight and professional app can handle both purchased and free books with ease. Besides, it supports most of the popular iOS devices and systems. If you want to streamline the book transferring experience without being stopped by purchased\/not purchased issues, Leawo iTransfer is the best solution here.<\/p>\n<p>The above tutorial guide is suitable for both beginners and advanced users.
