Negative review Will not let me adjust brightness by anonym
It auto dims my screen so I can't see anything. There is no option in the settings that let's me change this. It's infuriating. 1/5
Positive review Bright screen. by anonym
It would be nice to see a black screen with the ability to have blue or gray print. Otherwise, I love the app. 4/5
Positive review I love the kindle app by anonym

Negative review Needs by anonym
To be able to delete a book on the app it self ,instead of going online...recent update now I cannot open my app. 1/5
Positive review Amazon Kindle by anonym
A good choice of reading material always available. 5/5
Positive review Prefer Nook by anonym
I do like the app, because I can go back & forth between reading & listening to Audible. It is not hard to use but the controls could be a little better. My biggest complaint is if I have been reading at night and have it set at low light, then I open during the day and it's very bright where I am, it is nearly imposible to adjust my brightness because I can't see anything on the screeen. Another issue is when I open it, about 50% of the time I have to close then re-open or wait forever for it to open. 4/5
Positive review by anonym
I use this app more than any other that I have. Every time I think it can't get better they add some awesome feature. It has replaced all of my other e-reader apps. It syncs between my devices with ease 5/5

Positive review Turns your Android phone into a Kindle by anonym
What else is there to say it's Kindle on your phone, Brilliant. 5/5
Positive review Purchase could be easier on device by anonym
Sort by author, price.....I'm more likely to buy a new author if (s)he has a number of books out. The author link is dead now. But do use it several times a day. 4/5

Positive review Working again!!!!! by anonym
Yay you finally fixing kindle! Now we can actually use the app. Was the best app available until it stopped working, now it's back to being amazing. Thanks 4/5
Positive review Don't listen to the naysayers! by anonym
This app works pretty well. I haven't encountered any problems as I'd yet from using it. Very useful tool for reading books from Amazon. 4/5
Positive review Brilliant by anonym

Positive review Great app by anonym
Very handy app on the LG g3. The interface is great and the features are perfect. Only issue I've found was force closing a few time. 4/5
Positive review I love my Kindle! by anonym
I love my Kindle Fire and my Kindle apps, it makes it so convenient that I can sync my books, start reading on one app and pick up on another if I want to. Also downloading books is easy, all I have to do is access Wi-Fi and I have my books wherever and whenever I need them! 5/5
Neutral review Very good by anonym
You can't beat a book. However, of all on offer this would be on a short list of the best. Very good reader, customisable without being complex, plus an excellent selection of material. Very stable app. 3/5
Positive review The app is great by anonym
I use it mostly for this magazine that is hard to anywhere else. For those who don't know it the stuff you get is stored on the site and you can usually go there to redownload it and its usually stored on your device too if you want it in physical form you could probably find it on you device and open it on your computer with a converting program of some kind. Google it to find out how and to get a program and other info to help you out. Then from there print it out. 4/5
Negative review Used to be good before the last update by anonym
Really dislike immersive full-screen mode. Please, return front touch buttons, don't hide them. I don't like tap the screen twice. I like the home button to be available 24/7. And it looks medieval. 1/5
Negative review Why no enhanced edition support by anonym
Just got an enhanced edition book and it won't play the vids what gives either fix this on android befor I'm forced to buy a crappy ipad 1/5
Neutral review Property. by anonym
If I have paid for these ebooks why don't I own them? If they can be lost or withdrawn (which recently happened to me but was rapidly and generously solved for me - big thanks and a couple more stars) who actually owns the books? A paper book on my bookshelf cannot be lost (except by me, of course) or taken from me. I own my paper book. So why aren't these books readable without the Kindle reader. Why can't the books be stored in, say, PDF where I simply open and read? It's like games on Steam: you pay but you don't own. This should stop. But I recognise that it never will. Not whilst my money is going out of my wallet into theirs. Oh well. Yes, I could just not buy, of course, but how else do I take 50-odd books on to a plane? 3/5
Positive review Use this to continue reading!! by anonym
It picks up right where I left off on my other devices. Background color, and font all adjustable for easy reading inside or outside. 5/5
Negative review Slow by anonym
I'm reinstalling this works fine on my newer tablet but on my old jellybean tab awful this update 2/5
Negative review Disappointing interface by anonym
For such a big name as Kindle, the app was horrible & didn't look much like a modern app at all.The Kindle Store looked like an old website with those blue underlined hyperlinks.The search facility doesn't allow me to sort the search results by popularity AND THEN by price (I usually first search for popular books that are free).The app could have separated free books from the rest.The reader is just as good as any reader I know,but going through that whole browsing process just made me hate the whole app 1/5
Positive review It's great to have access to all my digital books. by anonym
v2.0 Nice reader with dictionary like the Kindle device. No text to speech, and no sharing of text from the book. Media that can be accessed by an Apple device is not available for Android Kindle - which feels weird since Amazon has Audible for Android. \ v3.8.0 Still good. Not much change for English users. I still want the media that is accessible to iOS but not on Android. \ v4.4 I like the support for comics and magazines. \ v4.9 Having audio book support is nice. Buying audio upgrades is easy. 4/5
Neutral review Now way too dark on Samsung tab S by anonym
The latest update is stuck on such a low brightness setting it is difficult to read on a train or without very bright light. You can't adjust it as you can with the paper white. It also does not seem to sync to last place read. Definite deterioration. 3/5
Neutral review Samsung galaxy tab 3 and Samsung s4 by anonym
I actually love this app have more books than I need on it. Before last update it was opening and actually loading the app and books that was the problem. Now it doesn't sync across all device's. So basically if I want to actually continue reading where I left off I have to stay on the same device and that sucks. Please fix this!!!! 1-22-15 all of a sudden it has stopped working. Won't load at all, closes all by itself. Please fix ASAP!!!! 3/5
Negative review Screen too bright at night by anonym
Developers still not listening. I use other readers now. 1/5
Positive review Great App with Minor Glitches by anonym
Even some older books are now becoming available, not just the new ones. I love the instant access dictionary (just highlight the word), and the ability to synch books across devices. Glitches I've noticed: the app may take long to open if not connected to a network (infrequent, but has happened a few times), and repeated notifications of an already downloaded book being 'just downloaded'. Sloppy editing by some publishers is not a glitch, but more frequent than I've encountered in print publications. 4/5
Positive review Great app. by anonym
I saw some complaints about brightness. They clearly don't know this is adjustable. I use the sepia setting and system brightness and it's perfect. Thought I'd never use this app, that I'd only use the Kindle, but rarely use that now, only for airplane trips where the battery might be an issue. 5/5
