Hi. Sorry if this question has been asked before. Any idea how to import ebooks from kindle or BOOKs for ios? Thanks.

from kindle you need to remove the DRM first. You can do this through Calibre and the DeDRM plugin. It’s free open source. Not difficult.
Once the DRM is removed you can import to Lingq.
