I detest hyphenation and disable it on my Kobos. One man's bread is another's poison and so on. You still don't get kerning and ligatures that you get with KFX format but at least there is the hyphenation. If by "looking pretty" you primarily meant the text layout (and not also the cover thumbnails on cover view) you can at least have both the syncing and fix those disgustingly huge spaces between the words ( in every line / row of text that couldn't have a long word split on a syllable) that are the worst thing about reading old mobi format by sending an epub with added soft hyphens (using Calibre built-in functionality for that or the "Hyphenate This" plugin) since then Amazon's PDOCs service will deliver an azw3 containing soft hyphens and the azw3 renderer on Kindle will hyphenate long words at the end of the rows. (Sync has always been important to me, I have 3 kindles and grab the first one I find, and my memory is not so great for sure.) Now I will look into how to export the annotations. You could always use bookmarks and export your annotations from time to time to keep track of reading positions in case your device craps out on you and you have to start over.
Whispersync didn't really get that much of a use from me.Īfter Amazon axed mobi/azw, it was between my Kindle looking pretty or the ability to sync reading progress. It's small enough that I can put it in my bag and take it with me outside. These days I find myself only reading on my Kindle. It was really convenient for me at first because I used to switch phones really often (I used to have bad luck with phones, they always broke) and everything would be the same after I re-installed the app. I stuck to Kindle because of this function. Whispersync won't be available for USB sideloaded books. Once you've received a document, bookmarks and other changes will sync across the iOS app just as they do on the Kindle.Yes. Any single non-PDF file under 5MB should arrive within five minutes outside that, you'll be looking at increasingly longer times.
Open the Kindle library on your device or app and refresh to check for your document. azw format, put "convert" in the subject line. If you want to have a file converted into Amazon's. Make sure it's one of the supported file types found here - most documents and images will be all right, although PDFs are still listed as "experimental." Multiple files can be either sent as separate attachments to the same email or attached as a single zip file. Create an email to and add the documents as attachments. With your settings tweaked, it's time to send the document. After you've emailed a document, it will show up in the "Personal Documents" page of your online Kindle library, and can be resent to other devices. If you want to keep an online library of your documents, however, you'll want to check the "Personal Document Archiving" section of the page and make sure that archiving is enabled. If you just want to quickly send a document to your phone or Kindle, you can skip this step. This information can also be found on individual devices on iOS, for example, you can open the Kindle app and go to the "Docs" tab to see the email. On the same page as your approved address list, you'll see a section called "Send-to-Kindle E-Mail Settings." This is where you'll see the addresses for your individual devices, likely something like Clicking "Edit" next to any device will let you customize the address for it. Once it's saved once, you can use it for any device. Go to "Manage Your Kindle" under your account settings, and under "Approved Personal Document E-mail List," add the email address you want to send from. This has to be done on Amazon's website - yes, we know it would make sense to be able to do it from the app, but that's just not how this works. Only email addresses that you pre-approve can send documents to your reader. Once that's covered, it's just a matter of going through the following steps: 1. If you've signed in with your Amazon account, it should be. Sending a document takes a little setup, but it's easy to do and supports a range of file types.īefore doing anything else, you'll want to make sure that the Kindle or app you're using is registered with your Amazon account. Upon updating, we were able to get everything from photos to game manuals on an iPhone 4S. Now, Amazon has extended that support to anyone with the latest version of the Kindle iOS app. For a while now, Kindle users have been able to email personal documents directly to their devices.
