How can we add a name to a bookmark in iBooks?

Hi Ba7rain 5a6 a7mar,

It doesn't look like you can rename a Bookmark.

For more descriptive "Bookmarks" I use the highligting feature. It gives you the same navigation capability but with better text.

Using the iPad User Guide for example, if I Bookmark the page talking about VoiceOver Gestures, the Bookmark is named "Accessibility" (along with any other pages from that chapter). If I highlight some text however, it becomes a note, which I can still click on to return to that page.

The note "Here's a summary of key VoiceOver Gestures" is much more descriptive than "Accessibility", and notes are unique.

Another example, if I highlight "Airplane Mode" at the start of the Settings chapter, it becomes a note called "Airplane Mode". If I bookmark the page, it becomes "Settings".

Highlight is my new bookmark.

I have this same question and want to be able to do this. I am new to the community so please let me know if I am misusing this discussion space somehow. It does not seem that there is a way to do this (banding bookmarks). I use iBooks on the iPad 3 (latest version of software). The suggestion offered of using highlighting instead is not very useful in my case. I highlight LOTS of stuff so going through highlights to find a bookmark is not practical. Also using notes instead of bookmarks is not a practical workaround for me since they just show up in with the bookmarks. Actually if highlights simply did not appear as notes then notes would no longer be useless for me and they would become a nice alternative to named bookmarks. I think notes, highlights, and bookmarks should be 3 separate things and bookmarks should be nameable. Bookmarks are way less useful when not nameable if you have more than one and they are not nameable. Is there a way to do any of this? If not how do I request this as a feature? I have been trying to figure out how to request features and report bugs for iBooks and it feels like Apple is intentionally making it difficult to figure out and accomplish.

Ok trying to edit my replay and don't see a way.

Spelling fix: naming bookmarks (not banding)
