RE: Kindle on ipad issue

Hi Fanus,

It appears there is only one way to email them and that is to find the contact 
us at the Amazon Help site and filling out a form.

Here is an article about that:

https://robots.net/tech/how-to-email-amazon-customer-service/

 

I hope it helps.  I would also suggest going to your Amazon Account and 
returning the book and maybe previous ones if it hasn’t been too long.  I 
forget how long you have to return an item.

 

Best of luck,

Richard, USA

Hello Richard

I live in South Africa, so it is very expensive to phone Amazon from this side. 
The interesting thing is that I tried the book on my Samsung phone and on a 
Chromebook and both have the same problem, so 3 different screen readers react 
the same. I also read a page with Seeing AI on my cell phone by pointing it to 
the iPad screen and Seeing AI had no problem to read correctly. The other 
interesting point is that when I read character by character I find that the 
letters c and e cause the problem.

Fanus

1.  which voice are you using?

2.  is that your default voice?

3.  If it is, do you have detect language on under settings, VoiceOver, speech?

4.  Which font did you change to?

I had some trouble reading with the default font, so I changed it to Open 
Dyslexic and it reads fine.

The font makes no difference to me since I am totally blind, but apparently it 
made a difference to the app..

Hello list

I purchased a kindle book and I made sure that the product details state that 
text to speech and screen readers are enabled but the book does not play 
correctly on my iPad. The moment I swipe down with two fingers for continuous 
reading it sounds if there are no spaces between words and if there are strange 
sounds, like a different language. I changed the font and size of text but the 
problem continues. Has anyone encountered this or should I just return the 
book. The problem is that it is not the first time that I encounter this 
problem and it is just strange that the kindle app can not read books meant for 
kindle.

RE: kindle app on iphone not showing some books right

2023-08-25 Thread R Van Lant
I saw a thread on this on a friends Facebook page.  Several people reported 
having the same issue from a very recent update to Kindle.  One low vision 
person said it seemed to be merging the word at the end of one line with the 
word at the beginning of the next, even though everything looked correct 
visually.   I  told the friend who posted the question to call Amazon 
Accessibility, so more calls on this would be good.

Hi All,

I have a weird issue.  I just downloaded a book from kindle unlimited  and a 
lot of the words are merged together, no spaces between like this: the monster 
ranafter the player, and theplayer wasn’t able to keep away from themonster.

When I load the same book on my kindle for pc, on windows, and it reads just 
fine.

I’ve tried restarting my phone, I’e reinstalled the app, but no luck.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Juan,

As someone already said, this is an issue. It is happening for me too. Reading 
in Braille is quite interesting. It is a little easier than reading with speech 
at this point, but it is definitely an issue.

I would call the Amazon disability line at:

Re: kindle app on iphone not showing some books right

2023-08-25 Thread 'Angie Nutt' via VIPhone
Apparently you’re not the only one. I realise this is no help but someone on a 
list reported it to Amazon as it started after an update, so if you can find 
where to report it, it might be a worthwhile thing to do.

All the best
Angie

Re: Kindle books

2022-09-20 Thread Kathy Blackburn
I looked at that third tab at the bottom of the screen on my phone. For 
whatever reason, it shows the first title in my library. Since yours was 
showing the title you were looking for, you might try double-tapping it to see 
if it downloads. As I may not have stated clearly enough yesterday, the far 
right tab on the bottom is labeled "more." On the next screen, the items are, 
starting from the top: Search Kindle, reading insights, your lists, Audible 
companions (if you have the Audible app), Goodreads shelves (if you have the 
Goodreads app), sync button, and Settings. Double-tap the sync button.

Okay, I see the five tabs you describe. I find home, library, then the book I 
was looking for, discover, and more. Should that middle tab be called something 
else than the book I couldn’t find in my library. I’m relieved it’s there at

Open the Kindle app on your phone. There are five tabs at the bottom of the 
screen. One on the far right is "more." swipe right a few times until you get 
to the "sync" button and double-tap. See from that causes your missing title to 
appear.
I hope this helps.

Re: Kindle books

2022-09-19 Thread Flor Lynch

Hi,


Do you also have Kindle on your computer?

If you have Kindle on your computer, one thing you could do is see if 
the missing book is in your Library there, or, if you find it in the 
Kindle program itself (on your computer), sync the Kindle versions on 
your computer and iPhone.

Good morning, list.
I have had the Kindle app on my phone for quite a while but finally got the

I went to the Amazon site and purchased three books and have three email

went to the order details link in the email it took me to Amazon through Safari 
but could not find the book orders but could find other orders.
I got the same result when using the Amazon app.
The orders were originally done on the computer. The emails contain order 
numbers.
I had not signed in the Kindle app when I made the first purchase, so I am

Let me know what to do so I can find the missing book and get it into my app so

Hi.

Here is a dropbox link for the PC app:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/wz3388r2rmrrug2/KindleForPC-installer-1.37.65274.exe?dl=1

I think it does work nicer on the PC. There you can read it pretty
much like any document.

Enjoy!

Re: kindle

2022-08-13 Thread doug parisian

I think I understand the difficulties some are having with Kindle.

Specifically, in order to navigate in Kindle for specific text elements 
such as characters, words and lines, one must first select the desired 
unit with the rote and then swipe and down.


In apps such as Safari, one can move freely in any direction on the 
screen regardless of any text unit setting on the rotar. In these cases, 
the roter is used only to skip to a desired web page element like 
graphics, forms, visited and non-visited links, heading etc. Also 
included of course is screen recognition and describe images, and of 
course speaking rate.


I think I said what I know I meant.

Not that I can recall. It will use the Voice Over on your phone. If
you want, I can also share a link for a dropbox copy of the Kindle
app for the PC. Very easy to use. You tab through to the library ,
then choose the book and enter on it, then you tab to the table of
contents if it exists or to the beginning of the book.

Very accessible. The software for the computer, the iPhone and the
Kindle tablets are very user friendly. If you buy a tablet, you
will need help turning on the Voiceview feature, which is like
Voice Over at first, but after that, it stays on.
I also recommend using a wireless keyboard with it.

If you want to read one line at a time change your rotor to lines and do a one

Yes, because braille is created by voice over. And since VoiceOver can properly 
read a kindle book book, it will allow you to read it in braille.

Kindle unlimited is separate from prime. It cost $10 per month and there is a 
lot of free Kindle content by using it. I would suggest trying it out for a 
month and seeing if it is worth your $10. It also allows you to search books 
and download books from within the Kindle app, some thing that you cannot do 
with a paid book.

Not that I can recall. It will use the Voice Over on your phone. If you want, I 
can also share a link for a dropbox copy of the Kindle app for the PC. Very 
easy to use. You tab through to the library , then choose the book and enter on 
it, then you tab to the table of contents if it exists or to the beginning of 
the book.

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.

I’ve been able to mark and copy text in my Kindle books. This may not be 
allowed in all books though. To do it, use your roter to select character, word 
or line and then flick up or down to find some text you want to highlight or 
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 Christopher Chaltain
I’ve been able to mark and copy text in my Kindle books. This may not be 
allowed in all books though. To do it, use your roter to select character, word 
or line and then flick up or down to find some text you want to highlight or 
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.

Micheal thank you for the link, I will be downloading your guide.  While right

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:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/soubx9x41xjsxo8/AAC0K5acw10d45Ib6g6ItWPLa?dl=1

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 
flick but all that got me was the word image repeated.

Thanks,

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,

Re: Kindle voices

2020-10-18 Thread Michael Feir
The female US and UK Siri voices are great alternatives for Kindle reding.
I usually use Alex myself, but variety is the spice of life as they say.
These days I'm using my Braille display to read Kindle books quite often.
That works splendidly too.

Re: Kindle voices

I've got Alex as a voice over voice.  I usually have all my voice over
voices at about 60%.  Alex does sound pretty good for listening to
Ebooks.  He does sound good with voice dream reader.  He is a great
voice over voice.

Did you have the books sent to your kindle account or to another email address

As Richard said if you have accepted the books then they should be in your 
kindle app if the email account was your kindle account.

Someone has purchase 2 Kindle books for me and I got emails asking me to accept

I do most of my email on my PC but usually read Kindle books on my iPhone 7

Hoping someone has a suggestion as to exactly what I need to do or where I need 
to go.

Many thanks for any assistance.

RE: Kindle Books on iPhone

2020-04-27 Thread R Van Lant
When you are in the Kindle app and in your library, be sure to show all books 
in the cloud, not just what is on your device.   You should be able to find all 
your books that way.   I don’t' recall all the options, but am sure there are 
options for sorting by most recent, unfinished, by author, and so on

Hi Vivian, I haven't read a Kindle book on my iPhone in a while and can't

Re: Kindle Books on iPhone

2020-04-27 Thread Barbara Stahl
Have you tried looking in the kindle app in the cloud? You might still need to 
download the books. 
Also, you can try going to the amazon website selecting account and lists, then 
content and devices and then books, if it is part of your kindle library then 
it should be there. You can instruct amazon to send the book to a particular 
device from there.

Hello Lelia,

I just tested my Focus 40 Blue with two Kindle titles and all worked as 
expected.


As in iOS 11, in the Kindle app, the Braille display works best when 
VoiceOver speech is muted/disabled.

Re: Kindle with braille displays and the latest update?

2018-10-02 Thread Diane
Hi, Lelia, they have updated Amazon Kindle twice recently and, miracle of 
miracles, it hasn't broken either time.  I was sitting my rocking chair 
yesterday afternoon with my phone and my Braille display and it was reading 
fine.  It flips to the next page like it's supposed to.  You'll be okay with 
it.  It says in the thing on the app store that they just added a few new 
library features.  I don't know if they help the sighted people or us or 
not.


God bless.

With focus on the Updates button in the Apps Store bottomline menu, go to the

refreshing automatically so you have to do this 3 finger swipe refresh.

Hi Reggie,
If you open the App Store on your phone, and then go to the top after it says 
update all, and do a three finger swipe down, that should put you in business. 
I’m not sure where the actual top limit is. So if that doesn’t work, mess 
around in there, and you’ll get it. Somebody else will probably come along with 
the exact instructions. But the three finger swipe down from the top, not the 
one that brings up the screen where you have airplane mode at Cetera, but below 
that, that’s what you want.

RE: Kindle app is fixed!!

2018-08-02 Thread Alan Lemly
Reggie,

 

With focus on the Updates button in the Apps Store bottomline menu, go to the 
top of the listed applications and do a 3 finger swipe down to refresh the 
list. This used to happen automatically but a few iOS versions back it stopped 
refreshing automatically so you have to do this 3 finger swipe refresh.

Mary, how do I refresh the App Store? I didn’t get the Kindle upgrade. I would 
like to get it as it is driving me crazy. Should I have gotten it? Maybe they 
put it out for different areas on different days?

Re: Kindle app is fixed!!

2018-08-02 Thread Mary Otten
Hi Reggie,
If you open the App Store on your phone, and then go to the top after it says 
update all, and do a three finger swipe down, that should put you in business. 
I’m not sure where the actual top limit is. So if that doesn’t work, mess 
around in there, and you’ll get it. Somebody else will probably come along with 
the exact instructions. But the three finger swipe down from the top, not the 
one that brings up the screen where you have airplane mode at Cetera, but below 
that, that’s what you want.
Mary

Re: Kindle app - skipping forward big chunks

2018-03-14 Thread Woody Anna Dresner
Hi,

Follow the Navigation Drawer link in the book's menu. There's a heading called 
Table of Contents, and the chapters are listed below that. Double-tap the 
chapter you want to go to.

Best,
Anna

Re: Kindle Book free sample

Yes, you have to download the books on your PC using the older Amazon Kindle 
version that I provided. 
What is nice, is once you then also utility, you can right click on the 
downloaded Amazon Kindle file and select Codex from the context menu and 
convert to epUb, then have it put you in that folder so you can copy the .epub 
file to dropbox, or wherever you want to put it so you can add it to Voice

Yes, it is a few extra steps, but it keeps the books markup so any chapter 
markings are preserved for navigating in Voice Dream Reader.

I hope that helps.

James Scholes has produced a little free utility that can convert a Kindle 
book into ePub that can be read in Voice Dream Reader so one could use any of 
those voices within Voice Dream Reader rather than reading in the Kindle app, 
which is my personal preference.  Partly, because you can start a book reading 
and lock the device to save battery, whereas you cannot do that when reading in 
the Kindle app.
Codex by James Scholes

Here is a little section from his web site. I encourage any avid readers to 
follow the link below and read about it and install the utility.

block quote
A few years ago, I wrote a tutorial which guided people through the 
installation and configuration of software for the purposes of gaining access 
to books
purchased from the Amazon Kindle Store. The guide proved popular, but it 
required heavy use of the command line, making it unsuitable and daunting for
quite a lot of people, not to mention that it was an absolute nightmare to 
troubleshoot if anything went wrong. Which it frequently did.
Subsequently, in 2014, I started to develop a small prototype application 
to make the process easier and more intuitive, not only for people wanting to
read Kindle eBooks, but also for me when people needed help. I named it 
Codex, a word used from the 16th century onwards to denote, now ancient, 
manuscripts
in book form. In the second half of 2015, I finally rewrote that prototype 
to include the functionality I wanted it to have from the start, and the 
software
is now publically available to download.
block quote end

Please note, that you can only convert books you have purchased and only 
for your use--you cannot share them with others without violating the copyright
laws and cheating the author out of their tiny royalties.
In order to convert your Kindle books with Codex, you will need to install 
Kindle For PC version 1.17, which you can get here:
http://turner42.com/KindleForPC-installer-1.17.44183.exe
Here is a link to his web site:
http://jscholes.net/how-to-remove-drm-from-kindle-books-with-codex-2/

Having said that, the vast majority of Kindle books can be read using 
VoiceOver and the Kindle app.
I'd be curious about the book you said specifically said that was not 
available.

You have to purchase the Kindle book on the Amazon site, then you can have 
it delivered to your Apple device, or down load it from your library.

HTH,
Richard

Richard I see you after what you copied from the website that you had more to 
say. I will dig up the link so you can try it for yourself. It was clearly 
stated that there was a free sample of the of the book in question. Stay tuned. 
Let me see if I can find that link once more.

Re: Kindle free app

2018-03-04 Thread Deidre Muccio
Fantastic. Thank you Richard, I will look into this. I have very little 
patience for a obtuse ways of  navigating. If an app or website is not laid out 
systematically and even intuitively,  I I  avoid using it if possible and 
remain disdainful! I do have a subscription to book Cher and often find things 
there that I don't find anywhere else. The book in question that was being 
discussed on dog read this month was not available through book share. So it 
was recommended I try Kindle and Amazon which is what finally brought me there.

RE: Kindle free app

2018-03-04 Thread Richard Turner
If you have a Bookshare subscription, you may find most of the books there, but 
if there is one you want that is not on Bookshare, Kindle books can be a great 
resource.
James Scholes has produced a little free utility that can convert a Kindle book 
into ePub that can be read in Voice Dream Reader so one could use any of those 
voices within Voice Dream Reader rather than reading in the Kindle app, which 
is my personal preference.  Partly, because you can start a book reading and 
lock the device to save battery, whereas you cannot do that when reading in the 
Kindle app.
Codex by James Scholes

Here is a little section from his web site. I encourage any avid readers to 
follow the link below and read about it and install the utility.

block quote
A few years ago, I wrote a tutorial which guided people through the 
installation and configuration of software for the purposes of gaining access 
to books
purchased from the Amazon Kindle Store. The guide proved popular, but it 
required heavy use of the command line, making it unsuitable and daunting for
quite a lot of people, not to mention that it was an absolute nightmare to 
troubleshoot if anything went wrong. Which it frequently did.
Subsequently, in 2014, I started to develop a small prototype application to 
make the process easier and more intuitive, not only for people wanting to
read Kindle eBooks, but also for me when people needed help. I named it Codex, 
a word used from the 16th century onwards to denote, now ancient, manuscripts
in book form. In the second half of 2015, I finally rewrote that prototype to 
include the functionality I wanted it to have from the start, and the software
is now publically available to download.
block quote end

Please note, that you can only convert books you have purchased and only for 
your use--you cannot share them with others without violating the copyright
laws and cheating the author out of their tiny royalties.
In order to convert your Kindle books with Codex, you will need to install 
Kindle For PC version 1.17, which you can get here:
http://turner42.com/KindleForPC-installer-1.17.44183.exe
Here is a link to his web site:
http://jscholes.net/how-to-remove-drm-from-kindle-books-with-codex-2/

Having said that, the vast majority of Kindle books can be read using VoiceOver 
and the Kindle app.
I'd be curious about the book you said specifically said that was not available.

You have to purchase the Kindle book on the Amazon site, then you can have it 
delivered to your Apple device, or down load it from your library.

HTH,
Richard

Subject: Kindle free app

Hello all
I finally after all these years downloaded a Kindle free app for my iPhone. I 
went to the archives to see what people had to say about it. I saw that the 
last post  was from May 1, 2013. And then there was a note from Amazon saying 
that accessibility features had been put in place. So today for instance I went 
to download a free sample of a book that was being discussed on one of my 
lists. The book was not available through any of the recording libraries for 
the blind or through book share. When I got to the description of the book, it 
clearly stated that the particular book had no text to speech or voice over 
capacity. I was impressed that I could get that information before  downloading 
the book to find that out The hard way.
Before I start buying books, I'm wondering who's using the Kindle free app and 
where I might find free samples to test it out. Are people finding books that 
can be read on the Kindle a  valuable resource? It's interesting that the book 
sample I wanted to download was just published in December 2017 which may be 
why it was not converted to text to speech or voiceover. Who who is responsible 
for that conversion? Is it the publisher or is that Amazon?

Re: Kindle question

2017-07-14 Thread Dana
The weird thing is that I did double tap on menu after before you go and every 
time I did it it took me to the authors blog site and opened safari instead of 
taking me back to the menu. I have read a lot of books on kindle and this has 
not ever happened before. I am wondering if there is a problem with how amazon 
has this particiular book set up.
I knew about the fact we have to double tap on the close, then the menu again 
to get to our libraries (smiley)But this time it kept going  to an external 
site instead of back to the settings where I could select anything  and since 
it has us in that spot, I can’t do anything else with kindle or that book, so I 
had to just delete the book and delete the app.
Also if anyone knows how to delete kindle books easily from their libraries 
that would also be awesome to know.

Re: Kindle question

2017-07-14 Thread Michael Feir
Once you've reached the end of a Kindle book, it puts you in a "before you
go" section. This menu lets you review the book, find out about other books
you might like, etc. You need to feal near the top left corner of the
screen and find the "close" button. Double-tap that to get out of the
"before you go" menu. Next, you want to doubletap on the book to get to the
minor menu. Next, feel at the top left of the screen and flick to the
"menu" button. Double-tap that to get to the major menu. From there, you
can either go to the library or flick right to find other options such as
locations in the book. You'll also find the table of contents in most books
which you can interact with to get where you need to be. Hope that helps a
bit. I quite like the Kindle app but it does have its little quirks.

The kindle fire reads kindle books better, but their voice program which is 
called voiceview can sometimes lock up and you have to wait about 30 seconds to 
continue whatever you are doing.  It can be slower to respond, but I like the 
newer kindle fires because you can activate alexa and she will read books.  
There is a kindle fire group for the blind if you have more questions.

I'm curious why you like reading bookshare books on the Kindle better than on 
your phone, given that the choice of voices with voice dream reader is much 
greater that you get with the Kindle. I do not like the female voice, the only 
choice for a female voice that comes with the fire. If they would offer all of 
the ivona voices that they bought, I might like it better. But I despise the 
sally voice.

Re: Kindle Fire vs. IPhone App

2017-04-04 Thread Mary Otten
The latest update to the Amazon app on the iPhone supposedly also has a Alexa, 
apparently including the reading of books. Since I'm not all that thrilled with 
the Alexa voice as a book reader, I haven't tried it. I prefer reading books on 
my iPhone, because I like the voice better. And I like the iPhone navigation 
better.

The kindle fire reads kindle books better, but their voice program which is

continue whatever you are doing.  It can be slower to respond, but I like the 
newer kindle fires because you can activate alexa and she will read books.

also, the amazon fire 7 inch screen, which i bought at the beginning of the 
year, has a better processor, and as well as the native amazon underground 
store, you can sideload the google app store.


if someone wants to get a feel for the android system at a very reasonable 
price, well you can't go wrong!

From the little I've heard, you're better off using the iOS Kindle app.

Amazons voice assistant thing for older Kindles is lackluster, at best. You
have much more flexibility over reviewing text with VoiceOver than you do
with Amazons clunky, bolted on solution.

Re: Kindle app or kindle

2016-09-14 Thread Mary Otten
The original question came from someone who was happy with the Kindle app and 
was looking to find out if there were advantages to purchasing a Kindle device. 
I can't see any in terms of reading kindle books, unless you particularly like 
the voices that are offered on fire. Or maybe you just like to mess with 
gadgets. And that $40 tablet is cheap. The speaker is awful. And it's on the 
back. But it works. And for $40 on sale, you can't complain. I am disappointed 
that Amazon has chosen not to offer all of the Ivona voices, which they own, 
for download for use with their devices. I wonder why they haven't done so. I 
wrote to their excess ability department, and got no response. No surprise.

Re: Kindle app or kindle

2016-09-14 Thread Dave
considering, kindle is an amazon product. it works just as good as the 
kindle app.


it just runs on the android system, which many blind people get on with just 
fine!


the amazon fire, which is about 40 pounds, in the UK, is a lot cheaper than 
an iphone.


also it isn't clunky, it is just a different operating system.

Speach is fine, and there are very good voices, which you can download for 
free, also you can buy a higher spec tablet, which is still much cheaper, 
than the iPhone.


But for 40 pounds, you can't grumble!

It boils down to personal preference.

Amazons voice assistant thing for older Kindles is lackluster, at best. You 
have much more flexibility over reviewing text with VoiceOver than you do 
with Amazons clunky, bolted on solution.

Re: Kindle app or kindle

2016-09-14 Thread Mary Otten
If you're happy with the app, there isn't really any need to get a Kindle. I 
have one of the cheap Kindle fire tablet that I picked up for $40 a few months 
ago. It's OK. For that price, it's great. But the app there doesn't really do 
anything that the Kindle app doesn't do. So unless you really want the voices 
that are available on Kindle device, I don't see why you'd want one, unless you 
just like Messing with gadgets. Frankly, the reason I purchased the Kindle fire 
was it somebody told me a particular voice was available. It happens to be my 
favorite female reading voice, and it's not available on Kindle on iOS. 
Unfortunately, I found out that that voice is in fact not available on the 
Kindle fire. Oh well. One thing I do like about the Kindle device is reading 
books in Russian, because I like the voice there. But that's hardly a common 
thing for folks in this country.

Re: Kindle once more

2016-01-25 Thread Russ Kiehne
Here is how I buy Kindle books on my Ios device:

from the book Kindle for iOS Accessibility Gestures - Quick Reference Guide.epub

You can shop from the Kindle Store using the Safari browser and deliver Kindle 
titles to the Kindle reading app on your iPad, Phone, or iPod touch. Your 
device must be connected to a wireless or data network in order to download 
Kindle content to your Kindle reading app. 
>From the Safari browser, visit the Kindle Store website: 
· iPad: www.amazon.com/ipadkindlestore 
· iPhone or iPad touch: www.amazon.com/kindlemobilestore 
 
1.   Sign in to the Kindle Store with the same Amazon account you used when 
you registered the Kindle reading app. Browse for Kindle titles you want to 
read, and then tap to view the product detail page. 
2.   To send the Kindle title to your device, from the Send wirelessly to 
drop-down menu, select your device. If you don't see your device, make sure you 
signed in with the Amazon account registered to your iPad, iPhone, or iPod 
touch. 
3.   Tip: Tap Try a Sample to download the beginning of a book for free. 
4.   After you purchase content, your titles are delivered to the Kindle 
app on your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch. Check your cloud tab.
