Mar 24, 2014 5:42 AM in response to Jeuneskiiby King_Penguin,Looks like that HT5558 page is out-of-date, the screenshots on it appear to be for pre-iOS. If you go down the list of books on that screen do any have an update button or similar - none of mine have had updates so I'm not sure how they show on iOS 7

Mar 24, 2014 6:11 AM in response to Jeuneskiiby King_Penguin,Judging by this post it looks like you can't easily see which book has an update : https://discussions.apple.com/message/23988581
So I think the iOS 7 version of the iBooks may have lost the functionality that is shown on the HT5558 page - as I haven't had any updates I can't speak from experience.
Do you have many books downloaded into the app so that you can check them via the main part of the store ?
