But there are a few quirks that you might not know about. For one, the app doesn’t support bookmarks. So if you want to keep track of where you left off in a book, or if you want to bookmark a passage for later, you’ll have to use the Kindle device’s built-in browser.

Browser Compatibility

If you’re using a device that no longer receives browser updates, you should not be using the internet with it.

The Kindle Cloud Reader app is a great way to read books on your smartphone or tablet. It’s still a relevant service, and there are many devices that don’t have the mobile apps, but still make pretty decent reading devices.

Cloud Reader is a new app that lets you read Kindle books on your Windows 10 tablet or laptop. ..

There are also plenty of good reasons to want the versatility of browser-based reading. Using a Windows macOS or Linux computer gives you access to all sorts of important abilities. First of all, you can use large format or specialized display devices. You can even read books on a large TV, if you’re using a home entertainment PC or other computer hooked up to your flatscreen. Second, if you have an internet connection and an ereader, you can read books offline without having to worry about buffering or waiting for the next chapter to load. This is especially helpful if you’re traveling and need to read while on the go.

Kindle Cloud Reader makes the Kindle service accessible on a large variety of computers. ..

Once you’ve chosen the book you want to read, there are more options available to you.

When you’re reading, the toolbars disappear so you can focus on the text. But you can easily bring them back by moving your mouse pointer. ..

You can also use these two arrows to turn the page.

With the toolbar hidden, you can scroll through pages by using the arrow keys on your keyboard. ..

The toolbar on the left side of the screen has a lot of useful tools. The “Library” button takes you back to the library! ..

If you click on the Library button, you’ll get access to the book menu which will let you jump to the cover, table of contents, beginning or specific location in the book.

Next up are the view settings, where you can change the colors and text size. Margins can be tweaked as can the style of text column you prefer.

To bookmark a page, just click the bookmark button on the toolbar. If you want to remove a bookmark, just click it and press the delete key. ..

To add a note to your book, highlight some text. ..

Offline Reading

An eBook can be read on a Kindle device or one of the mobile apps, even if there is no internet connection.

If you’re not sure whether you want to enable downloading, please click on the “disable downloading” button.

You can read your books anywhere, with or without the internet.
