Behind the simple interface, the Kindle has more features and tricks than you might expect.

You can get definitions for anything onscreen just by pressing and holding on the word.

Send web articles to your Kindle to catch up on your online reading, by sending them to the device.

If you have a Kindle Paperwhite , Oasis , or Colorsoft , you can access a warmth setting for the screen.

You can also install Kindle apps for Android and iOS, as well as Windows and macOS.

There's even a web app for reading in the browser.

As long as you use the same Amazon account, all of your reading across all of these devices will be synced up.

Tap the Aa icon to get the text onscreen looking exactly the way you want.
