Acquiring & Managing Kindle

Content

Shop in the Kindle Store anytime, anywhere

The Kindle Store offers a wide selection of Kindle books, Kindle Singles (novella-length

narratives), newspapers, magazines and blogs. To access the store, tap the top of the screen

to display the toolbars, then tap the Shopping Basket button. You can also select Shop in

Kindle Store from some menus.

To navigate within the Kindle Store, simply tap on any area of interest, then swipe left and

right or up and down to move around pages and lists. You can search for a title, browse by

category, check out the latest bestsellers, or view recommendations personalised just for

you. The Kindle Store lets you see details about titles, read customer reviews and even

download book samples.

When you're ready to make a purchase, the Kindle Store securely uses your Amazon 1-Click

payment method. After you order, the Amazon Whispernet service delivers the item

directly to your Kindle via your wireless connection. Books are downloaded to your Kindle

immediately, generally in less than 60 seconds. The download progress will display below

the book’s cover or title on the Home screen indicating the download status. A banner on

the book indicates when the book is ready to be opened. Newspapers, magazines and blogs

are sent to your device as soon as they're published—often even before they're available in

print. If your Kindle is in Aeroplane Mode when a new issue of a periodical becomes

available, the issue will be delivered automatically the next time you have a wireless

connection.

Whispersync synchronises your Kindle device so that purchases within Kindle apps or other

Kindle devices registered to your account are always available to you. This enables you to

read a few pages using the Kindle application on your iPhone, iPad or Android device and

then pick up where you left off when you return to your Kindle device. For more

information, see Reading Kindle content on other devices.

Device and Cloud storage

Content that is purchased from the Kindle Store is stored securely and available in the

Cloud. This includes copies of all your books, along with recent issues of newspapers and

magazines. To view your Cloud content, tap Cloud in the top left of the Home screen. Your

personal documents are also saved in the Cloud if they have been e-mailed to your Kindle

and if you have enabled Personal Document Archiving on the Manage Your Kindle page.

To view content stored on your Kindle, tap On Device. If you are preparing to go offline, tap

Cloud and download to your Kindle any content that you want to have available when

offline.
