Hi Damon,
It never was the case. It was only the case that it couldn't be downloaded
in the UK. It works fine.
All the best

Just catching up with this. I thought the app was only usable with the
US Amazon store. Is that not the case now?

Hi
Not sure if anyone answered this. I don't know the answer, however if
you go to amazon.com, click on help and look for Accessible Kindle for
PC there should, I hope be details there.
Hope this helps,
Kind regards,
Kevin

Can the books be read with a Braille display or audio only?
