How to Bookmark a Flipbook to Your Home Screen

By bookmarking your flipbook to your device's home screen, you can use it as a one-tap portal to access your flipbook, instead of having to open a browser and then select a bookmark or type in your flipbook URL! Bookmarking enables both you, your customers, and your employees to access their favorite flipbooks with just one click, saving precious time and effort.

 

Paperturn's bookmarking feature is perfect for sales teams, marketing teams, design teams, and HR teams who need continuous access to frequently used content. This is especially useful at conventions, sales pitches, or onboarding meetings!
