User reviews

Users find 'Send to Kindle for Google Chrome™' useful for sending long articles and web pages to Kindle devices for easier reading. However, common issues include frequent failures to send content, inability to send PDFs directly, UI problems like non-functional buttons and recurring sign-in prompts, and formatting issues. The extension also suffers from lack of updates and poor support, leading to frustration and decreased reliability over time.
Pros
  • Allows sending long reading contents from web pages to Kindle devices, facilitating easier reading on Kindle rather than on laptops or phones.
  • Useful for separating longer texts found on websites for future reading.
  • Generally supports sending and parsing most web page content well.
Cons
  • Extension frequently fails to work, often not sending content successfully or failing silently without error messages.
  • Lacks support for sending PDF files directly, which many users expect; attempts to send PDFs result in errors or failure.
  • User interface issues such as buttons not working, preview windows not closing automatically, and the extension requiring repeated sign-ins.
  • Content formatting problems including loss of font formatting and failure to remove ads, headers, footers, sidebars.
  • Poor or no updates and little support from Amazon, leading to bugs, broken functionality, and user frustration.

1 звезда за политику Амазона - удалять контент и блочить акаунты пользователей. Соответственно из-за приложение не работоспособно. Ты пользуешься аддоном, а через день твой аккаунт забанен. Еще не понятно что они там с самими устройствами могут делать удаленно.
