The Kindle app for the old Fire Phone offered vertical scrolling. Meanwhile the scrolling option for iOS apps is definite progress-or maybe Back to the Future. Still, I suspect that that vertical scrolling will reach Android apps and Fires soon. And how about about devices like the Fires? What’s more, due to technical challenges of the current E Ink, I wonder if vertical scrolling will come to devices like the Paperwhite and Oasis. On top of everything else, the Kindle’s Android app lacks vertical scrolling. Ouch! Also, there is no auto scroll, which I don’t use but which some users would dearly love. ![]() What’s more, you can’t use the continuous scrolling to make it easier to select material that starts on one page and goes on to the next. Public domain fans and others undoubtedly would appreciate scrolling on all books. Not all books will allow scrolling-the feature didn’t work on two books that I’d downloaded from nonAmazon sources.

IPad and iPhone owners using recent versions of iOS can now scroll through Kindle books, not just turn pages. Turn on voices to be selected from in Language Rotor.Update: Vertical scrolling is now available on the Kindle app for Android. Second with Voiceover activated, select the languages from the rotor you previously set up. First, you set up the languages you want to make available from within VoiceOver. Heres how to do it using the Language Rotor. The secret is to think about how you would give access to this facility to a blind or visually impaired person. While t is not at all obvious how to do it is still possible to change the voice used in text-to-speech with the Kindle. The big advantage is in being able to read your Kindle formatted books using text-to-speech. However, Word documents, PDF documents will not offer text-to-speech (many other apps do offer this functionality).
