Enjoy

Easy to use and a good selection of books.

Laying the foundation

The whole author

The best

This app changed my life. As a busy mom I had given up reading until I started reading on my iPhone kindle app. Read War and Peace on my phone among other long books. Easy to use.

E

Love it! Makes Life easier

My iPhone is a kindle I talk on

The best app. I use it more often than any other!!

Awakening/Eye-opening

This is certainly useful and practical information. I’m helped by the insight of the writer book that I see in my own life. A must have.

Purchases made available offline

I may be missing something, but are my purchases not available when I am offline? If they are, or can be, how can I insure that I can read them when I have no internet?

Broken functionality

I can no longer turn the page on an ipad (with keyboard) by hitting the space bar or the arrow keys at the bottom right. Now I must swipe the screen. Using the latest update for ipad and latest Kindle app. Please restore this functionality.

Page Advance Broken

Been using this app for years, but after this latest update, the page advance buttons on my iPad keyboard no longer work, have to swipe to advance to the next page. The buttons are working fine in other apps on my iPad, so it is *not* the keyboard.

Very convenient

This is a wonderful application very easy to use. It saves paper, very efficient and cost-effective

The beach house on Amelia island

This is exactly the kind of book I love to read. The characters were fun, just a really enjoyable book.

Great

It works fantastic!

Buying from the app

Overall, it’s great, but I don’t understand why you cannot buy from the app on your phone or iPad. Am I missing something? I don’t always have my kindle with me and it’s so frustrating to not be able to move on to the book if I don’t.

I love Kindle Unlimted

I am Handicap …”A Shut-In” I don’t go anywhere unless it’s medical. However, with all the books I can read i’m not unhappy! I go so many different place, and so many different times. Thanks so Much! Sue

Books

I don’t like how you have to bye the books you want, and by this app, when you could go to your local fricken bookstore, and get the same book for cheaper! I do like how you can sample the books first though.

Telugu language support

1. When can I see telugu kindle books? 2. Provide us a webpage, where I can upload pdf and it gets converted to axe format and update all my kindle instances including pc and macs and iPads too

What it still needs....

Good start but it still needs.... 1. highlighting capability 2. copy and paste 3. correlation to actual page # in book 4. "read to me" or speech capability. 5.Auto mind map of highlights

Suspenseful and Wonderful

The story draws you in and you can’t wait to see how the story unfolds. I can’t wait for the next book to be released. I will be patiently waiting.

Reading my way

Love that I can customize the font. My eyes get tired nd I like to take out my contacts early. No more reading glasses

Review

Please get off my screen so I can read a book!

Kindle Rocks!

Love my Kindle SO MUCH!!!!

Love it

I am able to read anywhere, anytime. Thanks

Dementia Behaviors Caregivers Survival Guide

Great read. Lots of helpful and useful information. I would highly recommend reading this if you loved one is battling this horrific disease.

I love kindle unlimited!

It allows me to read at my own pace and it gives a lot of options! I love Harlan Coben and I even find his books once in awhile.

I❤️ Kendell

I❤️ ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ your Big Nate books sooooooooooooooo much ! From Olivia.Bergeron

The Light We Carry

A great book from beginning to end! Down to earth advice for living, great stories that give us a peek into the life of a young Michelle. A must read for everyone, especially young, black women who need all the support they can get to succeed in the world today.

The Big Book

There’s Something in this book for EVERYONE that is Open to Hearing the Big Book.— Thank Y💕U

Video Ads

I use this app daily and now there’s a feature that makes me want to stop. Please give us the option to turn off video ads. They are annoying and distracting.

Good but needs help

I bought a brand new latest version Paperwhite, then two Kindle books. The second of the two is “not compatible with Kindle Paperwhite.”. Unbelievable. So I have to read the Kindle book on iPad. The experience is not great, as the test will not fill the screen as it does on Kindle device and many features are different. So it’s an inconsistent user experience, on top of being unnecessary due to Kindle books not working on Kindle.

Reading on the go

I have enjoyed my kindle. It would have been a great help to have had a user’s manual. I’m still researching how to master its use. Nothing is in writing.

Love the App

I wanted to read an ebook but fo not have a kindle. Love this App😍

With Kindle I always have something to read, as well as easily access email and the internet.

I love to read. It’s one of my favorite ways to spend time. With my Kindle, I can read any time, anywhere. I am on my second Kindle. I currently have an HD Fire, but I have used it so much the battery life is just about at an end as far as holding a charge. I am looking to get a new one!

Was better

Really, they added a section full of videos for a reading app and couldn’t record my reading insights after reading for hour through the app. Should’ve spent more time on the reading insights than videos on my home screen and no way to hide the videos

Kindle App

I can never go back to reading paper or hard back books

Kindle good

It’s right up there with the Nook.

Much better than app for Mac

I like using this app a lot. It’s easy and intuitive with a lot of good filtering options. Wish I could say the same for the app for Mac.

Books

So many books to choose from, I’ve been a member for years and the price never has gone up. I can read as many books as I want as fast as I want. Love it🥰

Yep, it’s a read

I liked the text and found myself wanting to know more about what would happen next as each chapter closed. Definitely not a waste of time.

My Kindle Ap

I read a lot every day. I have the Kindle AP on both my phone and my tablet. I prefer the Kindle on my phone. This allows me to read any where and at any time. One of the important things I like about Kindle on my phone, is it’s always with me.I especially like it when I’m in the waiting room of the doctor’s office or on a plane,bus, or train. To put it bluntly, I would be lost without my Kindle Ap. Lastly: I have access to almost millions of titles of any category of book from fiction to the cl

Endless source of entertainment!

I love this! I prefer this app over paper copy. The X-Ray feature is amazing and so is the translator. If I am confused by a word, I can effortlessly find the definition in the built in dictionary. It is hard not to like an app that has endless options. You can find any book on here and save space on your bookshelf.

Enable buying kindle books from app!

You need to enable buying kindle books from the Kindle app. Even from the Amazon app! What a missed business opportunity! Wow.

Formatting issue

Although I love reading on this app I have noticed that some of the books I have purchased have issues with pictures and pages being cut short or completely deleted altogether. In the sauces book by Michel roux I got I was really excited to learn new recipes but many of them are cut short and make it harder to learn because I have to guess some crucial steps

Serenity

Don’t quite know what I would do without Amazon Kindle. Reading is my lifeline and Kindle makes it easier for me. I recommend Amazon Kindle for anyone with a thirst for knowledge!

Stopped syncing

The app is great for reading but if you read across multiple devices, it's annoying. It refuses to sync no matter how many times I delete, reinstall, reboot, sign in and out. So annoying.

Kinda meh

I was expecting more free titles with a subscription, and even after purchasing a title, there was no option for read aloud so I had to use screen reader.
