I had difficulty syncing my Kindle with my Tablet. I couldn't download my books and when I bought an e book, it appeared on my Tablet but not on my Kindle. The Amazon site was not clear enough in trouble shooting. I followed instructions, but could not rectify the problem

5.0 out of 5 starsGreat App but shame that you have to download the Amazon Apps first.
By Amazon Customer TOP 500 REVIEWER on 18 February 2015

Great app to synchronise with my kindle so when I'm away from home and have a few minutes to myself, I can continue reading my book. I'm really disappointed though to find I had to download Amazon Apps first before I could get the Kindle App..............I'm sure that I wont have a lot of need of the Amazon Apps and felt I was held to ransom to enable my access to the Kindle App. If there had been another way, I would not have down loaded the Amazon Apps. I hate feeling that I have been 'conned' into something I dont want in order to get something I want.

1.0 out of 5 starsScreen gone dark on Kindle Android.
By Bob of Canberra on 3 May 2017
I have used this for years quite sucessfully on my Android phone. BUT todsy while reading the screen went dark ... no backlight. It is impossible to read now. None of the help sites are any use. HOW can I adjust screen brightness with Kindle android. (The problem effects Kibdle only .... all other apps have the required brightnesd.)

3.0 out of 5 starsFunctional but unimaginative
By Crookedmouth TOP 1000 REVIEWER on 7 January 2014
The Kindle App for android tablets works well enough, in an uninspired way. It allows you - as one would expect - to synch your Tablet to your Kindle account and read Kindle eBooks. Wonders will never cease. There's functionality that allows you to dim the screen for reading in the dark and you can play with the font size, screen colour and word density to suit your personal preferences. The grid view shows the front cover of all of your books, and you can list books in various orders (author, uploaded, title). There's also a linear list option or a carousel view that allows you to rotate through the most recently uploaded books. All well and good.

It surprises me, however, that the app is so "vanilla". In fact it's even less functional than the Kindle itself in that there's no way (at the time of writing) of organising your library. The Kindle is pretty limited in this respect and only allows one level in the folder structure, but the Kindle Android App is even less clever - there are no folders at all! Why, for goodness sake? It can't be hard to do. Using Kindle on a tablet ought to offer other opportunities - I dunno, like copying exerpts to the tablet clipboard, or voice recorder notes or stuff - but the app is, at heart, a simple eReader.

Four stars for the basics, but losing a star for the lack of folders.

By Amazon Customer on 19 December 2014

I have had trouble with this app, so many times I have lost count causing me to have to uninstall and re-install it. When I try to access this app it shuts down my tablet. I have tried everything to fix the problem but so far nothing works.

I love this app it enables me to have my books with me all the time. I have a Kindle but it is an earlier model that doesn't support my grandson's colour books so I find it very useful.

3.0 out of 5 starsNot for academic citation

Works good, however does not have proper page numbers. This is a problem if you need to make academic citations. If Google Play books can display page numbers, why can't Kindle?

5.0 out of 5 starsWould like more books from some authors that I have in hardback.

Enjoy most books bought, found that cheaper versions not well proof read. Would like more books from particular authors that I enjoy but time may fix that problem.
