[Athen] EPUB

[Joseph Polizzotto]

Hi Robert:

If you are referring to Dolphin Easy Reader, no, Google Drive is not
integrated into the app, which would be a good feature request.

That said, however, you can always follow this procedure below to open the
EPUB in the app:

1. Open Google Drive app
2. Navigate to the EPUB and double tap / select
4. Navigate to the "More Options" menu and double tap / select
5. Navigate to the "Open In" option and double tap / select
6. Navigate to "Copy to Easy Reader" option and double tap / select
7. The EPUB should now be in the "My Books" area of the Easy Reader app

Note: This is the method we have used with iOS devices.

HTH,

Joseph
