Re: Update Kindl
Greetings. Here is a link to an Amazon forum post for the Kindle that discusses more of the accessibility improvements and exactly what has been fixed/improved. http://www.google.com/url?q=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2Fforum%2Fkindle%2Fref%3Dcm_cd_tfp_ef_tft_tp%3F_encoding%3DUTF8%26cdForum%3DFx1D7SY3BVSESG%26cdThread%3DTx1PXM2K4OLWWZ1sa=Dsntz=1usg=AFQjCNFKrhwuYdQFO6Q34EFuallJ61mFtA Regards, Wayne Merritt On 5/1/13, Jane juanitatig...@gmail.com wrote: If y'all are able to, update the Kindle app on your iDevices.

Re: Update Kindl
Hi, Reading braille with the Kindle app is great. You read until you can't read any more. Then press the Next Page command, which is pressing down on the right rocker switch on a Focus 40 Blue, and Space with O for everyone. That takes you to the top of the next page so you can keep reading. No reading past the bottom and having to back up before giving the Next Page command.

RE: Update Kindl
Can books be bought from within this app, or is it like Audible and Nook where you buy them from Amazon to your account, then go to the app to download them?

Re: Update Kindl
You have to buy them from Amazon, but you can then sync them to your device. It's not Amazon's fault; Apple won't let them put a way in for buying from within the app unless Amazonwill share their cut with Apple.

Re: Update Kindl
Hi Anna and all. It is great. If you need to read the last line or so again on a page, you will not be thrown to the top, it is great. It is one of the most accessible reading apps with braille for books I have sometimes problems to get the screen refreshed for braille reading, I will then need to touch the phone can anyone give me a reason for that. In view options you can decrease the page size, and get a really large page, so that you will not have to turn page so often. I can not find out how to navigate by table of content. I can find the table of content in go, but how do I use it, I would be happy, if I could do it with braille. Best regards Annie.
