How can I download and install such a manual on the phone? It seems to be available only online (in the cloud?) - or am I missing something? Isn't it available as a .pdf which can be added to my phone's content? |

iBooks app. Search iOS 10. There is an "iPhone User Guide for iOS 10.3". Free. |

Yes - I know that there is. My question: "How can I download and install such a manual on the phone?" |

Thanks for that link. Lots of helpful info. I didn't actually find the answer there, but it inspired me to experiment - which was a success. Other issue: niggle upon attempting to remove an iBook. From that page: "If you want to delete a book or audio book, open iBooks and tap Select. Scroll to find the item that you want to delete, then tap it. Choose Delete, then tap one of the options: Tap Remove Download to delete it only from your device. Tap Delete Everywhere to delete the item from iCloud and automatically remove it from all of your other devices." I got only "Remove Download" when choosing Delete. I did not get the option Delete Everywhere. The iBook that I wish to delete is the iPad User Guide iOS 9. I see that it is deleted from my Library, but the title still appears on my iPad. |

It still appears because it's a 'purchase'. It will most likely have the Cloud icon with a downward arrow indicating that you can download it to your iPad if needed. |

It does indeed have the iCloud icon with a downward arrow - to be downloaded, or not. Thanks for that. |

You can hide purchases but not delete them from your list. You do this in iBooks on a Mac (not in iOS). Open iBooks Click iBooks Store in top-left corner Click Purchased Click the x in the top-left corner of the book you want to hide And to unhide: Open iBooks Click iBooks Store in top-left corner Click Account Click Manage next to Hidden Purchases Click Unhide below book in question I nicked the instructions from elsewhere. I have hidden books via my Mac and they have indeed vanished from iOS. Not that you will want to hide anything but there it is, just in case. |

Well, that doesn't work for me. I signed in to the store. The Purchased tab does not show all my purchases - and the Not in My Library tab is empty. The Library tab shows All Books - but not the one which doesn't interest me; the one I would like to hide is hidden in this tab. AH! I purchased the book-in-question with a different Apple I.D. Signed in with that I.D. and hid that purchase. Mission accomplished. Thanks. |

(In the voice of Hedonismbot) Multiple Apple IDs. How decadent. |
