No it's not.  but purchasing via Safari means the books can be delivered to 
your IOS device.

Hi,

Is it possible to browse and buy books using the app.  I've heard that it is
and also isn't, so am slightly confused.

Cheers.

Sharon

Hi Mark

You use the two-finger gesture to read continuously.  I have just downloaded
this app and am playing with it.  It is a huge improvement on what it
offered us before.  One small wish would be to allow you to choose what
voice you wanted to read your books, now that would be great.  Still,
mustn't be greedy, this is a really big leap forward, even though it lets
Amazon off the hook!


Kind Regards,

Jackie Cairns

Hi
Does it speak the books like an audio book, or do you have to scroll down a
line by line to listen to the books.

Hi all,
Not sure if this has been on the list but amazingly I updated the
kindle app on my iphone 4 s and found to my astonishment that now you
can read your kindle books on it.
you have to double tap for menu and when in the menu put your finger
to the top left of the screen to find home etc but sorry if this has
been already discussed.
I am so amazed as if my kindle keybard now goes wrong I have another
very portable alternative. see what you all think try it out.
