To do this, simply go to the Android PlayStore or the iOS App Store, in order to access the virtual store of your device and through the search engine, locate and download the Amazon Kindle application.

The contents available on the platform are accessible from the devices of the family Kindle, from the Kindle apps for Android, iOS, Windows 10, and the online version of Kindle. If you are a Prime customer, take a look and I assure you that you will not regret it!
