Re: Kindle on ipad issue

[Richard Turner]

I am not finding an email for Amazon Accessibiblity. Perhaps they have a phone number. Remind me where you live?  Richard, USA “Grandma always told us, “Be careful when you pray for patience.

I also changed to the font you suggested and I switched "detect language" on. The interesting fact is that my wife reads the text on the screen and she says everything looks fine. This is about the forth Kindle book where I encounter this. I have many other books which read correctly. I wonder if Kindle has an accessibility email address where I can report the issue?

I had some trouble reading with the default font, so I changed it to Open Dyslexic and it reads fine. The font makes no difference to me since I am totally blind, but apparently it made a difference to the app..     Richard, USA "At the moment of commitment, the universe conspires to assist you." -- Wolfgang Von Goethe   My web site: https://www.turner42.com/   Microsoft Windows Version 23H2 (OS Build 22631.3155) JAWS version 2024.2312.99   From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Fanus Buys Sent: Saturday, March 2, 2024 3:53 AM To: viphone <viphone@googlegroups.com> Subject: Kindle on ipad issue   Hello list I purchased a kindle book and I made sure that the product details state that text to speech and screen readers are enabled but the book does not play correctly on my iPad. The moment I swipe down with two fingers for continuous reading it sounds if there are no spaces between words and if there are strange sounds, like a different language. I changed the font and size of text but the problem continues. Has anyone encountered this or should I just return the book. The problem is that it is not the first time that I encounter this problem and it is just strange that the kindle app can not read books meant for kindle.
