GO BEYOND PAPER Turn your phone or tablet into a book with the Kindle app—so you can read anytime, anywhere. Explore these reading features in the Kindle app:
- Read your way. Customize your text size, font type, margins, text alignment, and orientation (portrait or landscape)—and choose whether to turn pages from left to right or continuously scroll. Read comfortably day and night with adjustable brightness and background colors. Go to the Aa menu in your book to get started.
- Look up words, people, and places while you read. Breeze through words you don’t know and characters you can’t remember with the built-in dictionary, X-Ray, Wikipedia lookup, instant translations, and search within your book. Simply tap and hold a word to view its definition, or follow links to Google and Wikipedia to get more information.
- Track your reading progress. See what percent of the book you’ve read, real page numbers (for most top titles), and how much time you have left in the chapter or book based on your actual reading speed.
- Bookmark places you want to revisit, and make highlights and take notes throughout your book. Open My Notebook to see all your notes in the same place.
- Hop, skim, and jump with Page Flip. Flip between pages or get a bird’s-eye view of your book with Page Flip—don’t worry, we’ll save your place.
- Zoom in on high-definition color images in Kindle books, magazines, comics, and manga.
- Sync your books across devices. When you’re reading a book, the Kindle app will automatically sync where you left off—along with any bookmarks, highlights, or notes—so you can start reading on one device and pick up where you left off on another.
- When you can’t read, listen. Switch seamlessly from reading your Kindle book to listening to the Audible book, all within the Kindle app.
- Get notified when authors you love have new releases.

I can no longer create PDF of my books to allow me to read them through Microsoft Edge's "read aloud" setting. The kindle paperwhite does not have a speaker, so there is no TTS setting on it. I also cannot use TTS on the Kindle app for PC because there is no play, pause, rewind, forward, slower, faster, etc. options for it. The only TTS option is start. Every time you try to move forward it stops the TTS and you have to start from the beginning of the page rather than from where you left off.

Yet another update which is less user friendly than before. So the last update got rid of the store button but although the deals were hidden away you could still find them. They have now completely disappeared. The only reason I use kindle is because incan get book deals that are easily accessible. Without this, I'll be going back to books amazon

I have a kindle Voyager, bought several years ago and love it. The backlight for bedtime reading is excellent, the charge lasts at least a month with daily nighttime reading of about 30+. With fast charging it only takes around 2 hours to fully charge. As I have a cover the kindle wakes up as soon as opened and shuts off when the cover is closed.
