READ ANYTIME, ANYWHERE
On the bus, on your break, in your bed—never be without a book. Kindle books you have purchased on Amazon will automatically appear in your app. Kindle Unlimited and Amazon Prime members can select and download Kindle books directly in the app.

FIND YOUR NEXT GREAT READ
• Read the books you buy on Amazon in the Kindle app. Choose from over six million Kindle books (including those with Audible narration), magazines, and comics and start reading in seconds. Explore 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 free sample straight from the Kindle app.

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

• Over 1,000 books, magazines, comics, and more included with Amazon Prime.

• Kindle Vella brings you stories released one short episode at a time. The first three episodes of every story are always free--after that, purchase Tokens and redeem them to unlock episodes. Tokens may only be used to unlock Kindle Vella story episodes and are available for In-App purchase. Kindle Vella and In-App purchase of Tokens are currently only available in the US. 

GO BEYOND PAPER
Turn your iPhone or iPad into a book with the free 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 use the Google and Wikipedia links 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.

Excellent

I've started using the Kindle app instead of any other book reader. Notes and highlights work better. Cross device sync works better. Love it!!

I love dis app

I love dis app. I love it because I’m in 4th grade battle of the books. It has some of the books. I’m happy of this app because kids can just tap on this app and a door to a whole new world opens. They can get inspired and write a book that will inspire others. So of course I will rate it a 5

Soldier On

This book hit me deep in the soul. The main character endures so many traumas and keeps getting back up to heal and help others.

I'll not update. Thanks.

My old 1.40.3 version seems to have more options than the latest version, and after reading all the recent-version, one-star reviews (April 2024), I'll just keep what I have and wait for Amazon to get it right. I guess there's no money to be made for Amazon in Kindle for Macbook...

Great app for reading novels in a second language.

Been working on my French for a few years (took several years in high school, but that’s a while ago!) I think I’m generally at a B2 level, and I find that when reading paper novels, there are sometimes just slightly too many words or expressions where the meaning isn’t quite clear. You can guess from context, but it feels like the uncertainty accumulates and after a while you’ve just lost the flow of things. And stopping to look things up in a dictionary means putting the book down and losing the flow too. But on the kindle app, you just highlight the word, and the explanation is right there, first in French, then in English. I have to say, it’s been a game changer for me, allowing me to read novels for pleasure, and maintain enough flow that the story remains interesting, and not some kind of homework-like chore. Minus one star for not maintaining highlighted passages across devices, so that when I highlight things on my phone, they don’t show up on the iPad, and vice versa.

Lacking accessability features

The lack of built in text to speech features would be frustrating enough. However, it goes beyond that. When I attempted to use the speech to text application on my computer, it allowed me to, for the first few chapters. After that point, it said I had "copied too much of the material" and would no longer allow me to use text to speech. If the developers don't want to put the effort into making a built in feature, the least they could do for accessability would be to not get in the way of using outside accessability features. Truly will not be buying again.
