*I upgraded from the 8 inch to the **Newest.Technology** 10 inch. I really didn't expect it to make that much difference but it has. It is also much faster and responsive. Great Purchase.*
I’ve owned various Kindle models since they first came out. I now have the first version of the Kindle Oasis. I thought I knew pretty much everything about the known and unknown features of the Kindle, but I never knew about the screen shot function. Thanks, Nomad Flair.
Thanks for this. I hadn't noticed the Show Clock While Reading Option or the themes. Syncing Collections are my biggest problem with the latest Kindle software. I used them alot (I have over 1000 books). They didn't appear on my new Kindle and I had to get them by using the Search button, clicking on the Show All button and clicking the 3dot menu next to them to Download to Device. However, new collections which I make on my Android phone don't appear on my Kindle. I've done the usual reboots and syncs. And some books which were in a collection appear outside the collection in Sort By Collection view.
Great video guy. I just got my 11th Gen kindle today. I used before the 5th gen. It has huge improvement compare with my 5th Gen. But, it is a bit heavy, and have a reflective glass screen. And I still miss the page turner button, which is good when I am reading by single hand.
Congratulations, you'll get used to not using the page turner button. The glass screen is good as it ensures there's less glare from the sun or light bulbs.
You will soon get the hang of swiping one handed with your thumb, Kyaw. I've got a non-Amazon cover for my Kindle. It has an elastic attached so that I can fold the cover back and put my hand into elastic. If you are under 21 you will also be able to do this while riding a bicycle and if you are under 18 you will be able to perform wheelies at the same time
Very interesting. Thanks. I wish it were possible to "lock" the progress in the book feature. I'd prefer to be able to only see the percentage, which was locked, by default, on my trusty old 4th Gen Kindle! It lasted 11 years and sold, very quickly on eBay! It seems a bit bizarre that you can "set" it, but accidentally keep changing it, while reading. One tip I've discovered; you don't need to tap/swipe the screen on the far right, in order to advance the pages. Almost anywhere, just to the right/centre of the screen will do the trick. Handy for us left handed people! 😉📚
Just got my new Kindle Paperwhite 11th gen but I’m finding it hard to share anything on Goodreads. Looks like there is a known bug with Goodreads integration since past 1yr where notes/share items are not visible on Goodreads website. Am I missing something ?
Hi, thank you very much for this video! Could you pls help me: I have kindle 7th gen and after soft update I can't disable parentla control. I already checked internet but didn't find solution. They all are talking about easy way when this option is active in menue. Thank you!
@@NomadFlair Parental control is enabled but when I get there and enter "parental control pin" there is no option to disable it. Could you pls help me?
People talk about extracting the notes into Notion. Could you please make us a video about it... BTW, I like your CZcams channel as it covers all my favourite stuffs... Gamer + Reader 👍👍👍
Dose any one know how to select a bundle to put them in a single collection instead of select one one li if you need to select a bundle with letter J inisials you have to keep scrolling till you get the letter J
Question, can I turn off the "Time left" and percentage displays in the bottom of the screen? I'm a very anxious person and that could be very distracting.
Great video! I use the kindle for studying so HIGHLIGHTS man... Is there a way of make them permanent in a book? Like been able to pass it to the PC/another kindle and manteining the information, i can't find anything about that...
In All Settings go to Device Options, Advanced Options and Enable Whispersync. Whenever you connect to WiFi next time, press Sync and your notes, highlights and bookmarks will appear in that book on whichever device you are using.
@@evelynwoolston7 thanks for the reply! But I don't use the kindle store... Either zlibrary or individual archives from my university, highly highlited stuff that I can't seem to save
Thanks!!! I'm aware that you can transfer all your highlights to a pdf, then I would keep copy and pasting your highlights on the the same document. So then I have a file full of notes and highlights!
@@fennarios it works for your own documents too. I use my Kindle alot for storing long Word documents like my recipe book. The way I put my documents onto my Kindle is to Bluetooth the doc to my phone. I've installed the Kindle app on my phone so when I long press on the document in the phone's File Manager, I choose the Send To icon then choose the Kindle app. It then gives you the option to send it to any of your registered devices. Ensure you tick one device AND Archive In your Kindle Library. Your notes and bookmarks will then appear on any device you send it to
@@evelynwoolston7 evelyn thank you so much for your time! i think i kind of understand that yo go pc->phone->kindle app-> kindle device, but what if i already have a book highlighted on the kindle device and want to transfer it to another kindle, for example i read a book and then want to give it to a friend but with all the important stuff highlighted, or just want to save that book in case something happens to the device! there has to be a way right? ha, this is making me feel dumb!
@Aide Valenciano I just bought my mom a 11 gen and a flipcase from kindle and it has magnets to close and to hold it to the back once it’s open but it turns on when open and turns off when closed
Faster? Responsive? I have the latest Kindle Fire and it can't handle simple sites like TikTok, accuweather, etc. Constantly reloads, drops the website. Audio not matching the video.... When the Kindle finally zeros in on everything it works for about a half hour before stalling out. I have to reboot to wipe the cache. It's really a pain and it has gotten worse over the past year.
Go to your Kindle’s home page. Click on the three dots to the top right of your screen (just below the clock) Click on “Settings.” Choose “Device Options.” Click on “Advanced Options.” Choose “Home & Library.” Click on the button to turn off “Home Screen View.”

No it doesn’t
Sue an extra 4” makes a whole of difference

Thanks for watching ☺️
Fantastic content!!! Loved it 🥰

Thank you very much! I appreciate all of the tips…they were quite helpful!
You're very welcome!
This is so useful! Thanks mate!

That’s so kind of you 😊
Excellent Video. Well presented and clearly explained.
I really appreciate that! 🙏
This is awesome
Thank you so much as that really helped me a lot
Anytime my friend!
Nice features. Amazon Kindle devices have been game changers for the readers. I too have one that has a Mediatek chipset and it does really well.
They're awesome man! I'm sure over time kindles are only going to get better!
Very interesting. Thanks.

Thanks for the tips, I grew closer to my kindle these couple of years. The pandemic made me look into books.
Me to and now reading has become a part of my life
Loved the vocabulary and screen shot tip so I subscribed
Great vid
Thanks bro
Thank you sir, I bought mine last week. I prefer not displaying the time haha
Awesome video, new subscriber here.
Regards from Peru 🇵🇪
Thanks man! Glad to have you on board! Congrats on the kindle!
Totally going to take advantage of the dark mode option.
Dark mode everything!!!

Did you follow the steps in the video, because I've been using it and it's been a gem.
what was the song you used for your intro? it sounds awesome
It's called - book the rental wit it by rage
Hi, thank you very much for this video! Could you pls help me: I have kindle 7th gen and after soft update I can't disable parentla control. I already checked internet but didn't find solution. They all are talking about easy way when this option is active in menue. Thank you!
So you're saying parental mode can't be disabled. Is the option not clickable or completely disabled? Thanks
@@NomadFlair Parental control is enabled but when I get there and enter "parental control pin" there is no option to disable it. Could you pls help me?
you can also change the orientation of the kindle from portrait to landscape by clicking the Aa option
That’s cool, never tried it. Thanks
People talk about extracting the notes into Notion. Could you please make us a video about it...
BTW, I like your CZcams channel as it covers all my favourite stuffs...
Gamer + Reader 👍👍👍
Thanks for the suggestion! I will look into it. I appreciate all the support my friend!
This is tagged as 2024, even though the video is 2 years old.
Still applies in 2024
The exporting option is very nice.
Absolutely 💯
Wow these features are very hidden..
I knowwww
Wow! So many things I didn't know before. Thank you so much!
You're welcome my friend!
Dose any one know how to select a bundle to put them in a single collection instead of select one one li if you need to select a bundle with letter J inisials you have to keep scrolling till you get the letter J
I have another reader - Pocketbook, so can you make similar video for this type of divice, please?
Thanks for the suggestion, I will look into it.
Question, can I turn off the "Time left" and percentage displays in the bottom of the screen? I'm a very anxious person and that could be very distracting.
Hey man, I just made a video on that - check the link czcams.com/video/TIWWrKlkVMg/video.html
I love how by lightly pressing on a word you automaticaly get a dictionary meaning .
That’s so cool!

X ray and share note is not available on german version!
That's weird!
I like your video very much it's really helpful just want to ask you can I transfer my son's school textbook in kindle or not just reply me ?
Appreciate that my friend! Is your son's textbook an ebook or in an online format??
Great tips! Never knew you could take screenshots on a Kindle.
Appreciate that, thanks for watching
the " x-ray " option on my kindle isn't enabled, how can I enable it please?
By head to all settings
@@NomadFlair It's not working ,
Does it have any relation to the version of the device ? ...mine is paperwhite 10th generation
Hello, i have the same kindle but i don't understand why my kindle doesn't show the Bluetooth button.
Which country is it from?
@@NomadFlair Mexico.
Is there a setting where you can ‘tap to open’ the screen instead of clicking the power button every time you want to open the Kindle? 😅
I haven’t come across anything yet lol
@Aide Valenciano I just bought my mom a 11 gen and a flipcase from kindle and it has magnets to close and to hold it to the back once it’s open but it turns on when open and turns off when closed
I can’t afford a kindle now but will try to buy when i earn my own money.
Highly recommend, try and get a used one for cheap
@@NomadFlair i will look for one. Thank you.
Great voice
Hahahaha thanks

I wouldn't use the kindle to browse than internet other than using it to browse for new books. It will struggle with watching videos on it.
If you activate a dictionary, longer holding the finger over a word, you get the information directly
Thanks for the tip!!
Can you remove the "recommended for you" section from the home screen?
Go to your Kindle’s home page.
Click on the three dots to the top right of your screen (just below the clock)
Click on “Settings.”
Choose “Device Options.”
Click on “Advanced Options.”
Choose “Home & Library.”
Click on the button to turn off “Home Screen View.”
I wish there was an option to enable just the battery and not battery percentage. I hate seeing the number of my battery go down
Not that i'm aware of atm.
Show clock would be good. It tells when it is too late for bed.
Absolutely 💯
you sound a bit like Neil Gaiman, i thought i was listening to my audiobook haha
Hahahaha thanks for the compliment!
Wish it had a timer. So I could get a reminder to go to sleep without checking the time.
That would be very useful, I'm sure it's easy to implement as the kindle fire has one. Hopefully there will be a future update adding it.
Can I share my phones hotspot to kindle?
Yes mate, I just tried it and it worked!
Just book my new kindle 6.8
@@apoorvchadha8324 that's awesome man!
no more option to showing clock while reading on the 11th gen
Really?
my bad. depends on the file type i guess. some pdfs dont give that option
You missed Voiceview, which I use a lot.
Thanks for letting me know. I can include that in another video!
All of these features are useless
👍
Great video!
Thanks for watching Erlan!
