The Kindle experience

[AZgl1500]

is your experience good, bad, or just indifferent to it?

My daughter has in our Collection a bit over 8,000 books for us to read.
Half of those I'm not interested in, but that's not the point.

What is happening for her on her HTC One M9, and then I tried it on my Samsung Galaxy S5.

Same thing there, I just got tired of waiting for a single book to load,
have received a major PITA experience, I just Turned Off all of the Amazon related apps on my phone.

My daughter though, uses Kindle a lot, and would like for it to work.

For myself, I use a Kindle Paperwhite which is just a reader, I select a book, it brings it up, and I start reading.
close it up, lay it down, pick it up, start right where I left off.
No problems with networks, it just works.

What reader are you using on the Androids?

Kindle is putting out a new format and I've seen some complaints about it.
I think the usual format is AWZS. I'd have to fire up Calibre to get it.

I don't think too many of the current ereaders on Android use that unless you are using Kindle's app itself. You can convert the books to MOBI, which the Kindle will read or you can convert to EPUB which most readers can use. Free app called Calibre on the computer.

The other problem could be the way sharing is set up.

I use a Kobo as it uses a micro card. It also reads epub which is more common for some books. If the Vulcan wants the book, I convert to Mobi and send it to his Kindle.
