Hello.
I just downloded the Kindle App for the I phone and it reminds me of the
audible app. So I'm supposed to buy books from Amazon? I've never used kindle
books before. Can you have kindle audio books?

You read a page, press next page, and you will automatically be in the top of

Oh, yeah, I agree. And the ability to move up a line from the bottom of the

Other than the sluggishness that I'm experiencing, the app works extremely

I had problems reading I books in Braille because it got stuck when I wanted to
change pages on a few occasions. I hope this will not happen in the Kindle App.
It seemed better when I started to read my book by speech as I didn't have a
braille display until I came to work.

Hi Donna.
I do not remember, which IPHone you have. With my 4 and 4s, I often experienced
slugishness, but not very often with my 5.
Be sure to go into the app switcher often, and close some apps, it sometimes
helps on the problem with slugishness.

Hi,
There is no difference. A book is a book essentially. But, Amazon just has
the largest collection of content. Thousands, if not tens of thousands of
books that blind people might not have had access to now do.
