Reading Kindle Documents

Kindle books also contain page numbers that correspond to the real page numbers in an
actual print book.

The Time to Read feature uses a unique algorithm to estimate the amount of time it will
take you to complete the chapter or book based on your past and current reading speed.
Your specific reading speed is stored only on your Kindle; it is not stored on Amazon
servers.

When reading, select Reading Progress from the menu, then choose the option you want to
display at the bottom of the page when you read. Options may include:

Location in book

Page in book

Time left in chapter

Time left in book

None

To hide Reading Progress, select the None option.

When you tap the top of the screen, the chapter name (if available) displays at the bottom
of the screen.

Tap the caret to access the Reading Navigation toolbar. For more information, see

On the Home screen, dots below the book title indicate how long the book is, with bold
dots showing how far you have read.
