Frequently Asked Questions
1. After publishing a book and submitting it, how long does it take to be available for download?
The goal is 2 weeks from the time you hit "Publish". From there, it is out of our hands, but it is usually 2-6 weeks before Apple posts it to the App Store. On rare occassion it will take longer than 2 weeks.

There are a variety of free programs out there that will do this. iTunes has this functionality, and a program called Audacity is a favorite of our users thus far.
