Whispersync Technology
Whispersync automatically saves and synchronizes your last page read, bookmarks, notes, and highlights across all your Kindle devices and applications.

Opretholdelse
Keeping the App Updated
Regularly update the Kindle for Android app to ensure you have the latest features, performance improvements, and security patches. You can enable automatic updates in your Google Play Store settings or manually check for updates by visiting the Kindle app page in the Play Store.
Rydning af cache og data
If you experience performance issues or unexpected behavior, clearing the app's cache can often resolve them. Go to your device's Settings > Apps (or Applications) > Kindle > Storage, then tap Ryd cache. Clearing data will remove all downloaded books and settings, requiring you to sign in again and re-download content, so use this option only if clearing cache does not resolve the issue.
