A:AnswerI have heard you can pay a monthly fee to get rid of the ads, but the only ad that I have seen is the book suggestion when you wake up the device. Once you swipe to turn on the ad goes away and the book comes up. Ads do not appear while you are reading. This is similar in all Kindle devices that I have owned.
A:AnswerThe kindle page has ads as a screensaver, but not when you are reading the book. At least as far as my experience goes, I haven't seen ads pop up or anything.
A:AnswerIf you have previous Kindle, all your books are stored through your Amazon account--so that way if you need to replace your kindle it is easy to access on a new one. Your Kindle Library is accessible on any Kindle.
A:AnswerYes, This is device is great for that. Not only is this less intrusive to other people around you but also great for reading before bed. The idea of these devices is there is no backlight so it is lit from around the edges more like light shining on the page of a book. The light settings go from 0-24, usually in a normal reading setting during the day I have mine set anywhere from 20 - 24 but then at night when the lights are low reading before bed I set it between 8 - 10. It is very simple to adjust the brightness while reading.
A:AnswerYou can get some free books. Most current bestsellers require payment, but less than buying a hard copy of the book. Local public librarys also allow you to check books out digitally for free with a library card.
A:AnswerWhispersync is Amazon's technology that lets readers switch “back and forth between a Kindle book and Audible professional narration - without ever losing your place.” The way it works is that you first buy the Kindle book, and then for Whispersync enabled books you can add the Audibile audiobook to the purchase.
Yes it does have audible.com store on the device. All you need to do is to tap on the 3 vertical dots on the right side of the Home Screen. Then you will see the audible store. You can tap on the audible store, and you are there to purchase your audiobooks and then they will be downloaded onto the device upon purchase of them.
It has a 3.5mm jack connector hole on the top of the device, so that you can connect your headphones/earbuds to the device (Bluetooth enabled headphones or earbuds).
It has Bluetooth capabilities on the device as well. And here are the directions on how to connect: To listen to Audible books on your Kindle, you must first pair a Bluetooth audio device, such as
headphones or speakers. There are two ways you can pair a Bluetooth audio device.
Pairing a Bluetooth device when opening an audiobook:
1. Tap My Library from the Home screen, then tap Downloaded.
2. Tap on the audiobook you want to listen to. If you have not paired a Bluetooth device, you
will receive a prompt to do so after the Play button is pressed.
3. Put your Bluetooth audio device into pairing mode.
4. Tap on the Bluetooth device you want to use.
5. Once the device is paired, the audiobook will play through that device.
Pairing a Bluetooth device via Settings:
1. Put your Bluetooth audio device into pairing mode.
2. Tap My Library in the top left of the Home screen. Tap the Quick Actions icon
on the toolbar, then tap All Settings. On the Settings page, tap Wi-Fi & Bluetooth, then
Bluetooth devices.
3. If you have already downloaded an Audible book, open the book and tap No Bluetooth
Connected to open the Bluetooth dialog.
A:AnswerYes it is backlit like a phone (or edge lit). It doesnt strain your eyes or keep you up at night like a phone. The brightness is also easily adjusted.
A:AnswerHello, Linhum! It seems like your Kindle might be frozen. My suggestion is to hold down the power button for 40 seconds. If the screen goes to a blank screen before the 40 seconds is up, continue to hold for the full 40 seconds. Once you've done this, it should reboot and be good to go. If not, I've also seen people have luck connecting their Kindle to a computer to trick it into waking up quicker. I hope one of those things works for you. Have a good day!
A:AnswerThe Kindle Paperwhite can easily be used in the bright sun. The screen is very similar to the texture and look of actual paper. There is also a backlight that can be used to read during the night or in a dark room. For the second part of your question, pictures cannot be loaded onto the device. The Kindle devices are designed for reading only. The memory is internal and there is no SD card slot for additional storage.
Have a great day!
A:AnswerHello! The Kindle Paperwhite is an E-reader. You will not be able to access your email or pay bills on it. The device is only used for reading. Hope that helps! Take care.
A:AnswerHello,
The device comes with a micro USB to USB charging cord. The only thing you would need is a wall block with a female USB input on it and then you can plug it right in and into the wall to charge. Hope that helps.
