    To get a pure white background on your iPhone, download a white image from the internet and set it as your wallpaper. Currently, Apple does not offer a built-in pure white background option.

    Tap on the book you are reading. Once on the page, you should see an icon in the bottom right. Tap on it and select "Themes & Settings." The option to turn the screen to black (or back to white) is in the top row on the far right, shown as a circle that is half white and half black.
