Manually adding books to Nook App on iPad

The Nook App isn't very intuitive when it comes to telling you how to sideload books onto your iOS device, however it is possible. Unfortunately, it's not as simple as just hooking up the device via USB and letting Calibre handle it. There are two methods:

  • Via USB (cable) and iTunes
  • Downloaded from shared site
