How to bind Moov to the IKAWE app

Bind IKAWE Moov to the IKAWE app for iOS or Android: open Log In to Account in Settings, scan the QR code with the app, and send books over Wi-Fi.

Updated

In short

  • The IKAWE app, for iOS and Android, sends books to Moov over Wi-Fi and prepares PDFs and other formats for it.
  • To bind: on Moov, go to Settings → Log In to Account, then scan the QR code with the IKAWE app.
  • Moov needs to be connected to Wi-Fi to bind and to receive books.

What the IKAWE app does

  • Sends books from your phone to Moov over Wi-Fi.
  • Prepares files for Moov: PDFs and other formats that aren't EPUBs or images are processed in the app, then transferred, so they're ready to read on a 4.5-inch screen.
  • Keeps it simple: the app lives on your phone; it doesn't add apps or feeds to Moov.

It's available for iOS and Android. On first start, Moov shows a code you can scan to download it.

Before you start

  • Install the IKAWE app on your phone.
  • Connect Moov to a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network (you'll be asked during setup, or you can change it in Settings).

How to bind Moov to the app

  1. On Moov, go to Settings.
  2. Select Log In to Account to open the device binding page. Moov shows a QR code.
  3. Open the IKAWE app on your phone.
  4. Scan the QR code displayed on Moov.
  5. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the binding.

Once binding is complete, your Moov appears in the app's Devices tab.

Send a book from the app

  1. Make sure Moov is bound to the IKAWE app and connected to a Wi-Fi network.
  2. In the app, open the Devices tab and select your e-reader model.
  3. Tap Import, select the file type, and choose the book file from your phone.
  4. On the Moov Home screen, tap the upper-right corner to open the menu.
  5. Select Sync to receive the file.

More on file types and USB transfer in add books to Moov.

If binding doesn't work

  • Check that Moov is connected to Wi-Fi, and that it's a 2.4 GHz network.
  • Make sure the whole QR code is visible on Moov's screen, then scan it again.
  • Close the binding page on Moov and open Settings → Log In to Account again to get a fresh code.
  • Close and reopen the IKAWE app, then try again.
  • Still stuck? See troubleshooting or contact us from the support page.
