THANKS FOR WATCHING! You know what's funny? You can probably read most of my book in the time it takes to watch this entire video 😅 Be sure to grab your copy on Amazon: geni.us/kANyP2M
Just got your book and purchased a Kindle. Thanks to your clear reviews and instructions I am on my way to becoming a bookworm. Your videos are the best I've watched. I just started reading in my 50's and I am trying to read as much as I can!
Hi Mannetpaul, You are really very good in explaining for a novice like me. Very clear, simple and easily understandable. Please keep making more videos. Thanks Les
I could practically weep with gratitude at having found this video. I've had my Kindle Paperwhite for a few years now, but never really got to grips with how to use it. Even some of the things in this video were hard for me - I didn't fully grasp how to get into a new book or stop reading one and move to another one if I wanted to read more than one book at the same time... Thank you so much for this comprehensive and really valuable video. I've subscribed to your channel, and liked this as well as saved it. Thanks again!
I just want to say thank you for your content! You are hands down the most knowledgeable and most organized kindle reviewer! I just binged a bunch of your vids and they are the best. I was looking for a lot of technical details (file formatting conversions, etc) and I swear you’re the only one who covers it! 👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you for this tutorial! I purchased a Kindle a couple of years ago (32g, on sale during Prime Day) and almost immediately began having eye problems. 2 years and 2 surgeries later, I can read again and am having to relearn the features of this device. Oh, and I bought your book. Nice little read.
I really appreciate you for this video. I just got a kindle paper white last month and I’ve been so frustrated with it. I’m not super tech savvy, but I usually do ok. This kindle is my first and it tripped me up honestly. This video taught me all I need to know to start reading frustration free. Thank you so much. I love your videos and will keep supporting. 🙏🏼 Edit: You helped me decide to get a kindle as well so we go way back. lol
Hi! I just wanted to thank you for all the kindle content. It made me so excited for my e reader again. So much, that I finally caved and bought a newer kindle paperwhite. My old one from 2013 just wasn't cutting it anymore. ❤
Regarding your Tipps to remove the Ad's I contacted Amazon customer service and used instructions you wrote in your book. And it worked. The removed the Ad without any costs. Thx a lot!😊
I have a paperwhite and I use the disable touch screen all the time. Swiping is still active. This is really helpful if you are using your Kindle around water or children. Both of these things happen to me all the time. It's a critical feature and when it's not well understood since you can still use the touch screen to swipe pages forward and backwards.
Another cute font option is the ability to add your own fonts to the Kindle. If you use the USB cable to connect to your computer, you can navigate to a fonts drawer in the root directory and there's a readme file in there with further instructions. Basically, you copy over a compatible font into the directory and it'll pop up as another Font Family option in the Aa settings. In my case, I like the EB Garamond font and it looks pretty sharp on the screen.
Thank you for your very detailed and easy to follow tutorial. Now I can finally navigate a book correctly without getting lost in the menus and starting all over in frustration.
Your videos are so clear and, and you are an amazing teacher!! Thank you for taking the time to share your Kindle Wisdom!! I have watched several Kindle related videos, and your, hands down are the BEST!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for the wonderful setup guidance. I bought my first Kindle after holding off buying one for ages. Love your channel... You really helped with my decision. Keep up the good work.
I just bought kindle and nearly feel regret doing it! I can’t believe how hustle to use it. I am gonna watch your vdo and hope it help. Thank for make me feel that i am not crazy!
I wasn't very sure which e-reader I should get, and through watching your videos I've gotten a likening for the Kindle Paperwhite. As I'm new to reading on Kindle and e-readers in general, this video was incredibly interesting! Learned a lot.
Another great video - if you ever come across the question of Bluetooth not showing up, I just spent some quality time with Tech Support - here in Canada, Audible will not play on Kindle. So if you have your device registered to the Canadian Amazon Store - you won't get Audible as an option. This was a fun discovery for me :) All my eBooks are on the Canadian Store, All my Audible books are on the US store - so my Kindle is eBooks only (which is okay, because I'm like you and prefer to listen on my phone and read on my Kindle). I just thought you'd like to know as you may get a question on this from some confused Canadian trying to listen to Audible books on their Kindle.
This was such an excellent video that it prompted me to buy and read your book, and then sign up for the Readwise offer. You have supercharged my motivation to start reading more intentionally. Your concise summary is extremely easy to read and implement. Thank you for not getting bogged down in a lot of unnecessary stuff! Outstanding!
This is such a great video guide for those new to kindle or those who want to get more from their device. Totally with you on the browser. I occasionally touch on that option, just to remind myself of what life was like back in the dial up modem era of the internet! 🤓
Thank you so much Maneetpaul, your videos have helped me use my Kindle much easier, therefore I'm enjoy my reading much more, I've also just downloaded a copy of your book, well done, excellent, keep us the good work.
sdfGreat video, thanks!!! Just bought my paperwhite, its arriving in a couple of hours, I want to use it for reading several science papers in pdf, can you do a tutorial for .pdf and other kind of archives interaction with kindle??? thanks!!!!!
excellent explanation of how to use the whole kindle, thank you very much for sharing it, I'm not very good at English and your pronunciation is excellent to understand what you say and express... success!
in most of your videos you always have a cover for your Kindle. I just bought my first kindle and i am not sure, wheather i should buy a cover or not. I like the minimalist design of the kindle and do not want to clutter it up with a Case - but would you say that a cover is definitely necessary for protecting the screen? or is the screen sterdy enough? (i got the paperwhite signature) ps: i absolutely love your videos!
Well done. Congratulations on your clear speaking. What was your first language? I have experienced so many high content non english speakers who can't be understood clearly.
Hey Nathan! I think it's important not to make any assumptions. I was born and raised in Connecticut, and currently live in NYC. Just because I look a little different doesn't mean I'm a foreigner. I also have a ton of respect for people who learn English as a second language and do their best to speak it. We should be empathetic towards that.
I have been following your you tube videos and they are extremely informative. I would request you to create a video on transferring docs from laptop to kindle device. How to transfer epub/mobi docs or ebooks from laptops to kindle device. It would be extremely helpful. Because some of us cannot keep on buying books as it gets too expensive.
What about bookmarks, instead of clicking the third icon in settings is quicker to just click the top right corner. It opens the same menu to add/delete a bookmark.
Just got my kindle paperwhite today o bought the kids one this is my first new kindle I've always bought used ones so glad I have new felt nice opening a new one brand new with no marks on it a treat for me lovely to that a case came free as ive always paid xtra for cases not this time so happy.
Thank you, that is a lot of useful information. My only addition would be that staying in Airplane mode helps to minimize the amount of microwave radiation in your environment (WiFi is in the microwave band). since the kindle is within arms length of your face/brain, extraneous WiFi is good to avoid. You can certainly do a sync whenever necessary by turning airplane mode off for a moment and pressing sync.
Thanks for the tips, I also just discovered that the page turn animation doesn't work if I have dark mode on. Which is sad as dark mode is great but not having the page turn animation is worse.
Very helpful. I find myself gravitating to my iPad mini 6, but bought the 2021 kindle paper white and I just need to use it more. It just feels cluttered compared to the kindle app on iPad. But I’m going to make some collections to help with the clutter feel and use some of these tips and tricks. I love the kindle I need to reach for it more
Thanks again for the great tutorial! One question, is there a way to disable the slider in the library on the right hand side? I just want to scroll by swiping
In Australia, the Paperwhite comes with no ads, but costs $239 (approx $170 USD), so I guess that removal is already built into our price. I got my first Kindle last year (PW 11th Gen) after your in-depth Oasis/PW comparison helped me settle on it. Still loving it!
Hi! Good video! I think Amazon doesn't allow annotations on ebooks for an additional reason: PDF documents have a fixed layout, unlike EPUB and MOBI documents (EPUB 3.x documents may have a fixed layout if designers wish so, though).
YOU SAVED ME FROM THE BIGGEST HEADACHE! I've been stuck in a single book for DAYS and had no idea how to just go back to the rest of the Library. THANK YOU!
Pretty good and very detailed tutorial thank you! Just one question please. If I am on page 150 in a book and want to go back to the start, or lets say page 5, or chapter 3, what is the best way?
Cann we read Gujrati boooks ni PDF (SCANNED/ ACTUALLY Created in Gujrati/local language)...? Does any font need to be installed? How is reading experience? I am planning to buy just to read gujrati pdf - offline.... Please share your views🙏🏻 It would be great help, thank you
THANKS FOR WATCHING! You know what's funny? You can probably read most of my book in the time it takes to watch this entire video 😅 Be sure to grab your copy on Amazon: geni.us/kANyP2M
Hi Maneetpaul!. Just a short question: I don't have the option to "export notes" on my kindle paperwhite 11. Do you know why I don't have the option?
@@ElEdenaRuh That's really strange. Are you able to access your notes at read.amazon.com/notebook ?
@@Maneetpaul No. Must be because my e-books are no original versions. What do you think?
And I can't use the "xray" option either...
@@ElEdenaRuh That is why. The book has to be purchased from Amazon for these features to work.
This is the most usable step-by-step instruction on how to use Kindle Paperwhite in the entire TH-cam. Thank you very much!

Thank you for your very detailed and easy to follow tutorial. Now I can finally navigate a book correctly without getting lost in the menus and starting all over in frustration.
This video was so helpful! I have a much older Kindle and can now see what features I’m missing out on. Definitely going to upgrade!
I just got my kindle and I followed your video entirely, very thorough and easy to follow. Thank you!
Favorite hidden feature that wasn’t mentioned:
Pinch to decrease Font size & Spread to increase!

YOU SAVED ME FROM THE BIGGEST HEADACHE! I've been stuck in a single book for DAYS and had no idea how to just go back to the rest of the Library. THANK YOU!
Excellent review. Very well explained.
What do you use to display your e readers on the shelf?
If you side load books can you choose the type you want it filtered on?
I have tons of book on my google drive, can i transfer it to a kindle device?
Pretty good and very detailed tutorial thank you!
Just one question please. If I am on page 150 in a book and want to go back to the start, or lets say page 5, or chapter 3, what is the best way?
2:51 - the library tab did have a page num/page total where you could jump to a particular page. Is there a way to display this now?
Oh awesome I never realized my most recent book is shown at the bottom of the home screen. I also didn't know it was clickable!
Glad you learned something new! :D
Can I send pdf to kindle? I have some downloaded pdf ....would I be able to open those in kindle?
Love you brother ❤
Very nicely things are explained….👍
