Hi Peter

The page flip effect is applied by the ebook reader app and is not a feature of the EPUB. You can’t switch it on (or off!)

So when you create a double page spread fixed layout EPUB and view it with iBooks on the iPad the page flip effect happens. The same EPUB viewed on the Kobo reader app will slide between spreads and Google have their own page flip effect on some of their reader apps.

In fact even iBooks is not consistent and on the Mac or Apple TV has a slide effect and not a flip effect.

Hope that helps?

Thanks
