Amazon Kindle Reader App Mac

09.09.2020by

Amazon just let us know that their Kindle Cloud Reader is now live, and lets you read any of their over 950,000 Kindle books right in Safari on iPad, Mac, or Windows, or Chrome on Windows, Mac, or Linux, without needing the Kindle app or hardware.

“We are excited to take this leap forward in our ‘Buy Once, Read Everywhere’ mission and help customers access their library instantly from anywhere,” said Dorothy Nicholls, Director, Amazon Kindle. “We have written the application from the ground up in HTML5, so that customers can also access their content offline directly from their browser. The flexibility of HTML5 allows us to build one application that automatically adapts to the platform you’re using – from Chrome to iOS. To make it easy and seamless to discover new books, we’ve added an integrated, touch optimized store directly into Cloud Reader, allowing customers one click access to a vast selection of books.”

Mar 31, 2020  Senior Amazon support staff explained that Apple requested Amazon force all Mac kindle users to upgrade to the 10.10 before they can use the latest Kindle app. And on sep.15th the app on my iMac will no longer work at all anymore. Mar 03, 2020  Amazon doesn't have a dedicated UWP app for its Kindle reader in the Microsoft Store, but luckily there's a really simple and elegant solution. By using the Amazon Cloud Reader 'web app. Wondering what Amazon Cloud Reader is and if it's right for you? Here's how it might really benefit and change your entire reading experience.

  • The Kindle app is available for most major smartphones, tablets and computers. That means you can buy a Kindle book once, and read it on any device with the Kindle app. You can also read that same Kindle book on a Kindle device if you own one.
  • Kindle Cloud Reader is a web app from Amazon that lets you read your Kindle books, instantly. Customize your reading experience by choosing font size, text color, background color, number of reading columns, and more. Create and edit notes, highlights, and bookmarks. Our Whispersync technology automatically syncs your furthest page read, notes, and marks across devices, so you can.

While there's no iPhone or iPod touch (it tells you your browser isn't supported and you should download Safari or Chrome, though hopefully a better intercept screen is in the works), it's a full HTML5 web app and includes offline storage. I've tried it out on iPad and it works quickly and cleanly. The Kindle Store is built in, so there's no jarring transition to the Amazon.com version of the store, and all the menus and options work really well. Likewise, the text is just a legible as it is in the app, and the WhisperSync works perfectly. Hopefully it keeps up that level of performance when personal libraries get really big.

With the controversy that arose in the wake of Apple's App Store subscription service, and the requirements to match pricing (since dropped) and remove links to external stores (still in effect), it felt like only a matter of time before Amazon would go this route. It will be interesting to see how many others follow.

Details and screen shots after the break. Anyone going to stop using the app and switch to the web app?

Amazon updated their desktop reading app Kindle for PC and Kindle for Mac to version 1.19, it is a big step as the last major version 1.17 was released several months ago.

The Kindle for PC/Mac 1.19 has three major improvements:

  • Added support for the enhanced typesetting books. The enhanced typesettings engine improves the way Kindle books are formatted.
  • Improved the search functions.
  • Added text-to-speech functions, it only work on books which support TTS functions.

Amazon Kindle App For Mac

Among all these important new features, the first one is the most important feature, and it’s also the worst new feature in my point of view. Let me explain why.

The enhanced typesettings engine requires the books be downloaded as .kfx extension name. This format of Kindle book is impossible to convert or decrypt (remove DRM).

Amazon Kindle For Mac Download

Update: On 18th, October 2017. The software called Epubor Ultimate makes it possible to remove DRM from KFX books.

You can buy this software with 20% off here:

  • Epubor Ultimate for Windows 20% off
  • Epubor Ultimate for Mac 20% off

The KFX books are initially going live on Kindle Paperwhite 2 and later generations. In old days, if a book is downloaded as .kfx format in our Kindle eReaders, we can download them to computer with Kindle for PC/Mac reading app as .azw format, then easily remove DRM from them.

From now on, if our Kindle is Paperwhite 2 and later generations, we will not be able to remove DRM anymore, then we won’t be able to convert to print them anymore.

In this situation, if we still need to remove DRM, we have two solutions:

  1. Find a Kindle which is no later than Paperwhite 1. The books downloaded to Kindle Paperwhite 1 and previous generations are .azw3, we can easily decrypt them with Kindle Serial Number.
  2. Download old version of Kindle for PC/Mac, I would recommend version 1.17.

Download Kindle for Mac 1.17

Why 1.17? Amazon finally would stop support for old version of Kindle desktop reading apps. Now Amazon has already abandoned version 1.14. As the most recent old version, 1.17 can last more days.

There is a hot discussion thread on MobileRead forum about the new version of Kindle desktop reading app and the coming DRM removing jeopardy. Most of eBook fans are holding negative views about the future of DRM removing, while some people think there definitely will be a way to crack the .kfx book in the future.
