Amazon disabled purchasing ebooks in the main Kindle app and told people to visit the Kindle Cloud Reader via Safari, buy ebooks and sync.Īmazon was the first company to offer a cloud reading solution.
Selling ebooks is not that profitable and operates on razor thin margins. The Kindle Cloud Reader was originally developed when Apple made all app developers pay them a percentage of royalties for in-app transactions.
#Kindle reader app for android no rotation. Offline
Offline reading has been changed, you have to logged into Amazon, to read offline, but it doesn’t work with all titles.
There is a popup window that appears, notifying readers to download the Kindle app for iOS or Android. Select ebooks from certain publishers with DRM cannot be opened anymore, even if you had previously downloaded them. Amazon is denying this statement, saying ebooks will continue to be downloaded, even without this navigation tab. The only books you can read, are ones that have been previously downloaded, no new titles can be accessed. We conducted a review a couple of weeks ago on the Kindle Cloud Reader, and since then, the navigation tabs to download ebooks from the Cloud have been removed. Over the course of the past week, Amazon has pulled a feature or two away from it and it looks like it is on the verge of being discontinued. Many people read comics, graphic novels, and ebooks, when they are at work or school, since many organizations do not block it. You can read ebooks via all major internet browsers for desktop, mobile and tablets. The Kindle Cloud Reader has been a viable browser based reading solution since 2011.
