Amazon kindle app for android problems Pc#

The Kindle for PC app (which i don't use much) seems to operate a bit differently, using an internal cover in preference to the one matching the ASIN.

Only if the book lacks an ASIN is the internal cover thumbnail shown (older versions of the app just presented such books without a cover) with no image placed in the covers folder. It puts these in the covers folder, I believe. If you want to check out such things (and are running on Windows), the Mobi2Mobi GUI I mentioned above will show you the book's cover and thumbnail images (as well as the rest of the metadata).Īs far as the Android app handling covers goes, it appears that if the book's metadata contains an ASIN (as all Amazon purchases will) it always uses the cover associated with the book's ASIN number at Amazon (even if one has changed the cover image within the book itself). See this thread for reference So basically AFAIK, the Kindle app just searches for a cover from Amazon depending on the ASIN number. It is looking for the ASIN number which is embedded in the. Why? I'm guessing that, as I suggested above, the books simply were provided without thumbnail images Calibre added them when rewriting the file (good suggestion, =X=). As far as having the same title as an kindle book that Amazon sells, it really doesnt matter.

The go-to electronic reader for Amazon fans, Kindle gives you access to millions of amazing books, newspapers, and magazines. I also notice that the default Amazon books put their covers inside the 'covers' folder, not the same for sideloaded content. Kindle is probably the best-known name in the world of eReaders. It looks like converting via Calibre did the trick, but I wonder why.
