There is also an option to download the free flip book maker as a desktop program, an app or simply use it within a browser. When searching for the app on an iPhone, it could not be found and so after clicking the link via Safari on the iPhone, it is discovered that the AnyFlip app is only available on the iPad.

Desktop Program

We downloaded the Mac desktop program for free to try out its free flip book maker features and ease of use. Upon installation, we selected “Demo” to check out a PDF that had already been converted. It was actually the manual for the program, which has been built by FlipBuilder.

You can see what we created in just a couple of minutes though:

They have some cool examples online of previous flipbooks that have been created and a nice one that demonstrates how you can make PDFs for children more interactive can be seen here:

You can also explore all the latest flipbooks that others are creating right this moment with the AnyFlip free flip book maker! You can use this for inspiration to see what other things you can turn into flipbooks. Right now (at the time of publishing this article), there is a brochure for a design agency that discusses the importance of branding and a menu from a restaurant. Both businesses have chosen to display ordinary material in a stylish flipbook format, creating more impact as a result.
