Thanks for a million Christopher. You solved for me one of my biggest kindle 
challenges. I have been trying to figure out how to highlight and copy text on 
kindle for years without luck. Now you solved this problem for me.

copy. Now perform a single finger triple tap. In the resulting dialog, at the 
bottom, you’ll see two controls. Flicking up or down on the first control will 
determine the left most text you’re highlighting and flicking up or down on the 
second control will set your right most edge of your highlighted text. 
VoiceOver will read the new text that you’re selecting as well as all of the 
text that’s now selected. It’s a bit tedious but definitely doable. Once you’ve 
selected the text your interested in, you can copy it or highlight it. Your 
highlighted text ends up in your notebook for that book, along with whatever 
notes you’ve taken. You can bring up your notebook for a book by just double 
tapping inside the book.

Reading word by word, or line by line, or character by character on kindle  is 
done the usual way by selecting character or word or line on the rotor. What is 
not available is the ability to mark and copy text. I think Amazon disabled 
this feature on kindle deliberately.

Hi Joy,

I'll say right upfront that I haven't fully climbed the Kindle learning curve 
but I understand your issues after playing with it just now. I would suggest 
that you execute the Library button which I believe is second from the left on 
the Kindle main screen bottomline toolbar. After doing so, you should have a 
list of books in your Kindle library on the screen. Double tap on the one you 
want and you might hear something about it downloading if it hasn't been. When 
the download completes, double tap the book again and do a two finger swipe 
down to start continuous reading. I don't much care for the screen presentation 
of Kindle books because accessing the text in order to move by words or to get 
spelling does not appear to be available. Or as I stated, I don't use it enough 
to know the tricks of using it. If I had a Kindle book I wanted to read, I 
expect I'd just get my Echo to read it.

Good luck.

Re: Kindle Books On The iPhone?

2020-12-07 Thread Michael Feir
Hello Joy. Perhaps, my insomnia will actually be useful here. I have well
over 2000 Kindle books and read them exclusively on the Kindle app on my
iPHONE. The app is set up with a different overall style than the Books app
but it offers a wonderful reading experience when you grasp the basics.
I've written extensively about the Kindle app in my guide. It's called
Personal Power: The iOS Edition. It's free to everyone and available in
several formats. I recommend the Epub version. It works well in the Books
app or even better in the Voice Dream REader app if you have that. The
guide has a section called REad All ABout it. This covers a number of book
reading apps including a detailed look at the Kindle app. You can obtain
the guide from the Dropbox folder I've put it in. I've pasted the link to
the folder below. If that proves to be troublesome for you, I'm happy to
personally send you a copy. The audio narrated versions are too large for
that but the Epub and other document formats are easy to send around. The
link is:

I hope this proves useful and that you will be able to master the Kindle
app. It's well worth learning how to use. Kindle prices are often much
cheeper than Apple Books especially if you watch for daily deals and other
sales.

No I downloaded it on the iPhone, I don't have a PC.  I did try the two finger

Hi Joy well did you download it using a I phone? Since if so that or the kindle 
app for pc with accessibillidey plugin is the one you need to get on the pc the 
book should just start reading or you can do a 2 finger flick down to have it 
read non stop on the I phone or I pad. Hth. From Mich.

Thank you, I have downloaded the app and bought my book, found it in my 
library, ... that's the good news!  Now sorry but any chance someone could 
please explain how exactly I get to read it?  I found the table of contents and 
tried double tapping the introduction link but that didn't do it.  I've read 
all about the available fonts and explored several other options that I'd have 
happily lived without but my book I cannot read!

 

Really appreciate any help getting started.

 

Thanks again,

Joy

description says  screen reader  enabled but I've no idea if that makes it 
accessible.

Any information much  appreciated!
