Description

READ ANYTIME, ANYWHERE

Got a Mac? You've got a Kindle. Kindle books you have purchased on Amazon will automatically appear in your app.

GO BEYOND PAPER

Turn your Mac 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 click 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 your Audible book, all within the Kindle app.

小学生が作った素人以下のアプリから生まれかわる

2023年第二四半期までMacユーザーに長年煮湯を飲ませ
強要されていたkindle classicアプリ
ページスクロールのサムネイル表示がない、ビューワーの癖にページ遷移がありえないほど重い、数ページ飛ばすと読み込み画像で数秒待たされる、そもそもアプリが落ちまくると
開発SDKが充実している昨今、誰でも簡単に作れるような画像ビューワーアプリで、おおよそ世界有数の大企業が出したと思えないような素人丸出しコーディングで大顰蹙を買い
100人使えば100人全員が星1すら付けたくない評価を下す全Macユーザーを地獄に叩き落としたアプリ

iOSでできていることが何故できない?しょうがないからiPad片手に技術書開いてMac開発するわと
ユーザーから完全に存在を忘れられたKindleが生まれ変わりました

普通に読めるよ
まだiOS版より機能足りないけど
落差が激しすぎて星5を付けざるを得ない

Quite Satisfied with the App Accessibility for VoiceOver User

I'm using VoiceOver along with a Braille display. There was a bug in the past I could not go to the next page smoothly, forcing me to take my hand off my display and touch the phone screen on the first line of the next page. If I was to miss a little VoiceOver sound when a page has turned (although it is not apparent at all on my display), I would have gone a couple or more pages ahead inadvertently, and I had to flip back to find where I left off. It doesn't sound much, but when I have to do it for every page, it does become disruptive, taking my mind abruptly away from what I was reading. So, I was really excited that this issue got fixed some time ago. Now, everything is smooth. The only improvement I want to see is the app exactly remembers left off when I close the app and get me back there the next time when I open it. It works fine if it is at the beginning of a chapter, but otherwise, it hasn't worked well. It would be wonderful if something can be done about this.

あらたしくなって快適!サクサクに!

長らく続いてきて以前のバージョンはひどいものでした。もっさりした動きと、頻繁に落ちる安定性の悪さ。MacでKindle本は読めないと長らく諦めてきました。しかし刷新後は最高! サクサクとスムーズな動きに感激しています。書籍だけでなく、漫画や雑誌もすいすいとページがめくれます。これまではいったいなんだったんだ……と思いますが、今度でよくなったのでよかったです。Kindle Unlimitedで読みまくっています。感謝!

【追記・2024年2月】やっぱりダメだ……。ページ送りが恐ろしくもっさりし、さらにアプリも頻繁に落ちるようになってしまった。まるで使いものにならない。せっかく良くなったと思ったのに、がっかりすぎる!
