Short answer: Yes, you can easily download MRH directly to your iPad once you know a couple simple iPad tricks.

TRICK 1: Instead of tapping on the MRH download link, TAP AND HOLD. You will get a popup menu of link action options – we recommend Open in New Tab.

TRICK 2: Once the MRH PDF has downloaded into your browser tab, tap the cover image (away from any article teaser links) to get the Open in … button. Tap on the Open in … button to open the MRH PDF in your favorite PDF reading app (iBooks, GoodReader, etc.) and enjoy!

Long answer: Yes, downloading MRH directly to your iPad is easy. Here’s some step-by-step screens to show you the process.

Step 1: Navigate to Other copy options page using the green button for the format you prefer (Landscape or Portrait). In this example, we chose Landscape.

Once on the other copy options download page, TAP AND HOLD the magazine link to get the link options popup menu as shown here. Select Open in New Tab ...

Once you select Open in New Tab, the screen will go black and the PDF will take several minutes to download into your browser. Wait for the blue download progress bar to go completely across the width of the URL box ...

Once the download is complete, the cover image will come up in your browser window. Tap the cover image (make sure you don't tap an article link, tap out somewhere else on the cover image) and you will get an Open button bar across the top of your screen. Tap the Open in ... button:

In this example, we chose to open the PDF in iBooks ... after a few moments the screen will shift to iBooks, and the PDF will be added to your iBooks library, and opened for you. Just start flicking the pages like you normally do for any iBook document to read MRH.

You now have the issue directly downloaded to your iPad and stored in your favorite reading app, ready to read whenever you want.

The iPhone works somewhat similar, except we recommend the Portrait version for the best iPhone reading experience.

NOTE: Although this example shows downloading and opening MRH in iBooks, for the very best reading experience on an iPad or iPhone, we recommend the GoodReader app ($5). For more on reading MRH with GoodReader, click here.
