• Sync Your E-Books — The Kindle app lets you read the same book across devices and syncs automatically, so you can start reading on one device and pick up where you left off on another device. The app syncs your furthest page read, bookmarks, notes and highlights between Android, PC, Mac, iPad, iPhone, iPod touch and any of our Kindle devices using our Whispersync technology.

Great reading app I use on a daily basis. I find the accesability options very useful. These include the ability to change font style, size, and colour. I also like the bookmark feature, so i can continue where I left off. I do not find downloading books easy, as you can not do this straight from the Kindle book store. instead, I have to purchase the "Kindle vertion" from the Amazon e-books page. And even then, it isn't straight faward .

It looks as though the infantile reading insights dashboard has at last gone after I requested this many months ago. That's an improvement, although I am not confident that it won't reappear. There is still a problem with the app repeatedly closing despite regularly updating it. This is very poor and is never a problem with Google Play Books.

More and more I'm finding that Audible Narration just it isn't syncing OK. It's frustrating if you've bought both versions. The only troubleshooting Amazon does is to get you to delete books/apps, then reinstall and update, restart device, followed by refund which isn't a solution at all. Disappointing and expensive.
