Amazon has released a new version of its Kindle app for Apple’s iOS devices, which include the iPad, iPhone, and iPod Touch, and this new version comes with a range of new features.
The new Kindle app for iOS now offers support for PDF documents and also support for newspaper and magazine subscriptions. This means users can now enjoy a wider variety of reading materials directly on their iOS devices. You can now open PDFs from mail or Safari by sending them to your Send to Kindle email address or transferring them through iTunes. This feature is particularly useful for professionals and students who frequently deal with PDF documents, as it allows for seamless integration of work and study materials into the Kindle app.
Enhanced Reading Experience
The updated Kindle app also brings an enhanced reading experience with improved navigation and customization options. Users can now easily adjust font sizes, margins, and line spacing to suit their reading preferences. Additionally, the app includes a new feature called “X-Ray,” which provides in-depth information about characters, places, and terms mentioned in the book, enriching the reading experience.
Another notable feature is the ability to highlight text and add notes, which can be particularly useful for students and avid readers who like to annotate their books. These highlights and notes are synced across all devices, ensuring that you can access them anytime, anywhere.
Integration with Amazon’s Ecosystem
The Kindle app for iOS is deeply integrated with Amazon’s ecosystem, allowing users to access their entire Kindle library on their iOS devices. This means that any book purchased on Amazon can be read on the Kindle app, and progress is synced across all devices. For instance, if you start reading a book on your Kindle e-reader, you can continue reading from where you left off on your iPhone or iPad.
Moreover, the app supports Whispersync for Voice, which lets users switch seamlessly between reading and listening to their books. This feature is perfect for those who like to switch between reading and audiobooks, as it ensures that you never lose your place.
You can find out more information about the latest version of the Kindle app for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch over at iTunes and the app is available as a free download.
