About this app

READ ANYTIME, ANYWHERE
On the bus, on your break, in your bed—never be without something to read. The Kindle app puts millions of books, magazines, newspapers, comics, and manga at your fingertips.

FIND YOUR NEXT GREAT READ
- Find your next great read with Kindle. Choose from millions of Kindle books (including books with Audible narration), magazines, audiobooks, and comics. Explore new releases, Amazon Charts best sellers, and titles across genres like romance, science fiction, children’s books, self-help, religion, nonfiction, and more—and try any book with a sample in the app before you buy on Amazon.com

- Kindle Unlimited members can enjoy unlimited reading and listening, with the freedom to explore over 1 million titles, thousands of audiobooks, and current magazines.

- Thousands of books, magazines, comics, and more included with Amazon Prime.

GO BEYOND PAPER
Turn your phone or tablet into a book with the Kindle app—so you can read anytime, anywhere. Explore these reading features in the Kindle app:

- Read your way. Customize your text size, font type, margins, text alignment, and orientation (portrait or landscape)—and choose whether to turn pages from left to right or continuously scroll. Read comfortably day and night with adjustable brightness and background colors. Go to the Aa menu in your book to get started.

- Look up words, people, and places while you read. Breeze through words you don’t know and characters you can’t remember with the built-in dictionary, X-Ray, Wikipedia lookup, instant translations, and search within your book. Simply tap and hold a word to view its definition, or follow links to Google and Wikipedia to get more information.

- Track your reading progress. See what percent of the book you’ve read, real page numbers (for most top titles), and how much time you have left in the chapter or book based on your actual reading speed.

- Bookmark places you want to revisit, and make highlights and take notes throughout your book. Open My Notebook to see all your notes in the same place.

- Hop, skim, and jump with Page Flip. Flip between pages or get a bird’s-eye view of your book with Page Flip—don’t worry, we’ll save your place.

- Zoom in on high-definition color images in Kindle books, magazines, comics, and manga.

- Sync your books across devices. When you’re reading a book, the Kindle app will automatically sync where you left off—along with any bookmarks, highlights, or notes—so you can start reading on one device and pick up where you left off on another.

- When you can’t read, listen. Switch seamlessly from reading your Kindle book to listening to the Audible book, all within the Kindle app.

- Get notified when authors you love have new releases.

I have 2 Issues... 1. Why can't I buy audiobooks in Kindle anymore? It shows the Read & Listen with Audible menu, but I can't buy the books, I can only add to List. But what kind of List? If I go out fromt this menu the books I added before the list are not added anymore. 2. If I listen a book with the Read&Listen function and want to switch back to read, the app doesn't sync the page where I was, when I listened. It's annoying to find again wher I was... Please fix both. Thanks

Please put reading insights back to the top of the home page! I update every day to keep my streak but now I have to scroll endlessly to see my current streak or tap several menus to get to reading insights "directly". Inconvenient and won't make me buy more books. The recognition of the app if I have been reading has gotten so bad lately! It doesn't register even if I have been reading about an hour.

Love it - when it works! Being able to read books on my phone is amazing - so much better than mindlessly scrolling social media. Being able to highlight and make notes is awesome and something I now find essential and don't want to do without. That Cloud Reader syncs been phone, eReader, and browser tab is great and very useful. Some buggy issues. 1) when I want to select a different highlight colour the popup glitches out and becomes blank, 2) same when I try to export notes.
