Flipster – Digital Magazines

Flipster lets eligible library patrons download and read digital magazines.

Our take

Use it after checking whether your library offers the service and the titles you want.

Offline downloads, article text view and digital contents navigation support reading beyond a simple page image.

Keep in mind: Access depends on a participating library and its magazine collection; installing the app does not create library eligibility.

What you can do

  • Find participating libraries
  • Download magazines offline
  • Article text view and contents links

Good for

  • Readers with access through a participating library

Consider alternatives for

  • Anyone expecting every magazine without library membership

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 12.0.
  • Access depends on a participating library and its magazine collection; installing the app does not create library eligibility.

Privacy & permissions

Library authentication and reading activity are personal information; follow your library's account and device-sharing guidance.
