![]() But many people may still be unaware of the new scrolling capability, which also works on Android tablets. Thanks, Mr Bezos.Įditor’s note: The Kindle app listing in the Google Play Store shows the last revision was November 30, 2018. They rarely get things right on the first try but this time they did it very well. That’s how a lot of the apps scrolled when I was reading on a Palm. I can see them, but they don’t slow me down. It just scrolls right past chapter breaks like they weren’t there. Moon+ has a little break between chapters so at the end of a chapter it takes an extra nudge to get it started in the next chapter. ![]() The way it’s handled in the Kindle app is a little different. Moon+ and now the Kindle app let me just move the page along with my thumb as I read. I don’t read at a constant pace, so I’m always getting behind or ahead, and it’s awkward. Some apps scroll automatically, which I’ve never liked. Hopefully this scrolling feature won’t make it even worse. I really like reading on the phone, and I’d do more of it but it’s hard on the battery. I do most of my reading on the Paperwhite, but my phone is always with me, so I read more than a little bit on it as well. I’ll probably still use Moon+ with non-Kindle books, but I suspect I’ll be using the Kindle app more now. I got used to not having the little break in concentration at the end of each page, and it spoiled me. In the early days of ebooks, scrolling was the norm. So I’ve usually converted my books and read them in Moon+ since it lets me scroll. Most of my books are Kindle books, but I’ve found that if I use Moon+ with a converted version, it’s about as fast to sync with my Kindle using search as the Kindle app can sync automatically. When I read on my phone, I use either the Kindle app or Moon+ Reader. It will also let you return to the regular paging. You can make the change from within the Aa menu. I clicked Yes, and sure enough, it scrolls. The Kindle for Android app on my phone just updated this morning, and a notice popped up asking me if I’d like to try scrolling.
