Amazon Kindle

Amazon Kindle application for Android can turn your smartphone or tablet into an eBook with access to a library with millions of books waiting to be read.

Amazon's eBook app for Android

Amazon has revolutionized the world of eBooks thanks to its Amazon Kindle and the various features that this device offers. The WiFi connection, the various models such as Voyage, Oasis and Paperwhite, or web services such as Flash or Cloud Reader, which allow users to read their books through a browser, have made the distribution company the largest online bookseller.

And while Android and iOS smartphones and tablets don't offer quite the same convenience of reading as an eBook, the fact is that the screens on these devices have improved significantly in recent years, making this app an alternative solution to enjoy reading from your mobile device.
