User Reviews

Users praise Kindle for convenience, wide library access, and reliable cross-device syncing that preserves reading progress. Kindle Unlimited is a noted benefit, and built-in reading aids (X-ray, dictionary) enhance comprehension. However, several reviews report syncing problems across devices, including logouts, resets, and sometimes lost purchases or progress when switching devices. Storage/manageability concerns (especially with comics) and a desire for visible in-app pricing or sales are also mentioned. Overall, the app is valued for reading across devices, but syncing reliability is a recurring concern.

Pros

Cross-device syncing and progress tracking lets you resume reading on any device.
Very convenient access to a large digital library with quick access to titles.
Kindle Unlimited provides a broad catalog for readers.
Reading aids like X-ray and quick dictionary enhance the reading experience.
Overall positive experience and reliability cited by many users.

Cons

Sync/account issues across devices, including unexpected logouts/resets and occasionally lost purchases or reading progress.

Recent reviews

I was a very early ebook adopter, and at that time, the only option was Amazon. So in the 20ish years since then, I’ve spent literally tens of thousands of dollars on ebooks. That makes it very hard to walk away in a post DRM world. The app updates have, over the last year or so, been much more focused on *selling* books rather than offering a platform to read books you already bought (kids, I promise, there was a time when you could not even buy books on the Apple kindle app). The ads and algo on the front page means that I can’t even open the front page and see my purchases. Worse, I’m a librarian, so books I’ve looked up for work show on my personal feed because Amazon keeps mixing up my work account and personal account because I access them on the same device (just looked up! Not purchased! But the algo doesn’t care). And when I *do* get to my library, I have to first click “downloaded” so I can see which books I haven’t finished yet, then sort by recent. Every time. No option for default settings. And then if I want to switch between books and have an accurate take on recency, I have to close and refresh the app So after a while of this, I turned off the device setting that would allow automatic app updates. Kindle is still updating, completely bypassing my device settings If I could magically switch all my books to another platform, I would. I can’t. So I’m moving away from ebooks and going back to ink and paper. Just a terrible experience and a terrible way to treat long time customers
