I don't think I've ever commented before, but I am a recent Kindle convert, and I just want to say how much I appreciate your videos. THANK YOU for sharing the ins and outs of all this technology!
You don't have to own both Audio book and the e-book to get whisper sync. You just have to own the Audiobook (via Audible) and borrow the book (through Libby, for ex.) and have it sent to your Kindle. Both Whsipersync and immersion are available for this.
@@joshua_david4383 Yes but the immersion feature only works on the Kindle app on phone or tablet, not on the Kindle. Also on the Kindle you can only use Audible or the reading app separately not together.
Immersive reading used to be on the Kindle Touch when it first came out and then when the paperwhites came out they removed that feature on the Kindle Touch. I am still awaiting its return. I may get a Boox because I really loved that feature.
Your videos have helped me SO MUCH!!! I have had so many questions about Audible and Whispersync as it has been quite confusing. So happy I found your channel and especially this video!!’ Thank you 😊
Immersive reading can be very useful for those struggling to concentrate and/or read - so it's a nice feature to have. There are ways to have a screen reader handle it, but an audiobook is normally better produced - so that's great. As a quick note - some of the features you mention are region-locked. So they aren't globally available (for example, here in Canada we have different "stores" due to Publisher constraints. As a long-time Amazon/Audible/Comixology member, my library management can get very interesting at times :)
I have books on multiple apple devices but currently cannot sync a particular whisper sync for voice book. I have the book and WS for V on my iPhone but my IPad only has the book on Kindle. How do I sync it?
Thank you sooo much. I am really enjoying this synchronised version on the Kindle App so much that I am really frustrated that on my Scribe there is the Only Read / Only Listen possibility - I am really hoping that this will change soon.
Do I have to purchase audible to be able to listen to books on my reader, as am trying kindle unlimited,and thought audio books were part of the package?
Kindle- How to download large audible book (bible) which is in many parts (14)? I’ve bought it, it shows up on kindle, but unable to download and listen to it. Thanks, I hope you can help.
Need help Okay, so I have an audible subscription and Kindle subscription separately it is basically 30 days free triel on both. How do I "connect" them? Really confused
Thank you so much for your support! I'm honestly not sure if Nook has a similar feature to this. I personally don't use their devices very often. Sorry!!
Is it true that Canadians cannot access the Bluetooth option on kindle ereaders? I’m also reading that I won’t be able to access my audible library(Canadian site)within the kindle line of ereaders.Really discouraging.
I downloaded audible version of a book on my Kindle paperwhile signiture. When i clicked the "play" button, nothing happened, and seconds later I got an error message saying "failed to open audible file". Please help!! TT I made sure my Kindle is connected to my airpods successfully.
I stopped using my Kindle because I don’t enjoy it. In the beginning, on my first kindle, when you finished a book you could return the book to the first page(in case you wanted to read it again), then move the book to a library area. However, after two years on my third Kindle, I still can’t figure out how to do that, so I just stopped buying books
If you press the menu button while reading a book that looks like a bunch of lines, it will open up the navigation shortcut. You can jump back to the beginning there, or any other chapter or page number. Also, on your Kindle Home Library Screen, press the three dots on a book cover and you’ll see an option to mark a book as unread (or read). I hope this helps!

Oh, this is such a great tip. Thanks for sharing!
Only in the US unfortunately. Libby doesn’t allow sending to Kindle here in the UK
Really!?
Can you listen to the book at the same time while you’re reading along ? Thanks

So bothered that I can't use the immersion reading feature on the Kindle, wish I had known it only works on a phone before I bought the e reader

The region locked features is quite annoying. It amazes me how different things can be depending where you live. I hope this changes over time!
do you mind sharing how you make it work in Canada? would love to hear where you opt to get your audiobooks/ebooks and what device and such you use
Good video. Wished immersion reading was available on Kindle. Even if it just switched pages at the right time
Kindles sold in Australia haven’t had the audio function for sometime now for some reason.

I really hope so too! That would be a great feature to have on the Kindle e-readers.
I am looking for any app or way so i can listen to the narrator audiobook and read as well. Please help
Did you find a way, you would think this would be an easy feature by now
Do I have to purchase audible to be able to listen to books on my reader, as am trying kindle unlimited,and thought audio books were part of the package?
Is it possible to read AND listen at the SAME time on kindle paper white?
Same question, I have the paperwhite signature
No I don't think so. He says it's only on the mobile app at this time.
Just use accessibility screen reader to read and listen. The audio quality is robotic though but it’s worth the try
Perhaps I missed it somewhere, but I want to read along while listening to the audio. Is that possible?
I just use the audible app to listen from my phone while reading on the kindle
I am in Canada ad I dont see the option for bundle audiobook on any ebook, is everyone else also facing it?
Kindle- How to download large audible book (bible) which is in many parts (14)? I’ve bought it, it shows up on kindle, but unable to download and listen to it. Thanks, I hope you can help.
Thank you for all the great vidoes! Is there a way to listen to an audiobook from some other source then Audible?
Sad that the Kindle itself doesn't do immersive reading :(
Need help
Okay, so I have an audible subscription and Kindle subscription separately it is basically 30 days free triel on both. How do I "connect" them?
Really confused
New to ereaders, hope you can help with a quick question, is there a similar feature on Nook for this?
Thank you so much for your support! I'm honestly not sure if Nook has a similar feature to this. I personally don't use their devices very often. Sorry!!
Why immersed reading on the kindle device is not available?
I think it's not technically possible on the e-ink technology.
Great information.
Is it true that Canadians cannot access the Bluetooth option on kindle ereaders?
I’m also reading that I won’t be able to access my audible library(Canadian site)within the kindle line of ereaders.Really discouraging.
Appreciate the content.
Thanks!
Thanks so much!!

Does this work with kindle unlimited?
Only problem with that feature is that I have hundreds of books in there and there is NO way to search it.
❤️
Kindle basic have audio? To audiobooks
Thank you for the video...On my fire tablet I sometimes use Alexa to read to me and yes I am cheapskate
You aren't saving 13$. You are spending 8$ more for the same book

Kitni bakwas kar di 7 mins mein
This doesn't work in France. Probably to prevent a monopoly.
