Thread: Kindle Books on android tablets

Finally managed to download Kindle onto my daughters android tablet.. It a cheap one and you can only use their app store rather than andriod market place so you can get hardly any apps.. Anyway been trying to use Amazons app store and thats only available if you are in the US.. Managed to get round that with a little helpful advice from the internet and created a fake US amazon account so I can download their free apps,

Anyway, I havn't gone into the kindle store yet.. Can I download kindle books on my Laptop and then copy them to the tablet to read, or do i need to download them using the tablet / device you are going to read them on?

You can put the kindle app on multiple devices and use your amazon account to read books on multiple devices. So if you have an account and download a book, you can read it on your PC, tablet, Ipod, Ipad etc etc etc.
