Amazon.com, Inc., a US-based multinational e-commerce company, has announced that its suite of free Kindle reading apps now includes Kindle for Android. Customers worldwide can now download this free application from Android Market and benefit from Amazon's vast selection of Kindle books on their Android-powered devices.
The free Kindle apps allow customers in the US to discover and read over 620,000 books in the Kindle Store. Like all Kindle apps, Kindle for Android includes Amazon's Whispersync technology, which saves and synchronises a customer's books and bookmarks across their Kindle, Kindle DX, BlackBerry, iPad, iPhone, iPod touch, Mac, PC, and now Android-powered phones.
Android-powered device owners can now search and browse more than 620,000 books; read the first chapter of books for free before they decide to buy; access their library of previously purchased Kindle books stored on Amazon's servers for free; synchronise last page read between their Kindle, Kindle DX, iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, PC, Mac, BlackBerry and Android-powered phone; customise background color, font color, and font size to help ease eyestrain; read in portrait or landscape mode, tap on either side of the screen or flick to turn pages; and adjust screen brightness from within the app to make reading easier. Several features will be added to Kindle for Android in the near future, including full text search and purchasing of Kindle books from within the app.
