Thank you David for your help. I must say that I find the app difficult to
use. I seem to remember that it was once much more manageable, but I could
be mistaken.

Hi, Martin.
When you open the Kindle app, you are usually taken to the last book you
were reading and the text of the book is mainly all that is available on
the screen. You can use Explore by Touch to explore the text or, much
more easily, use the two-finger swipe down to begin reading from the
book from your current position.
To explore a menu of options, double-tap anywhere on the screen with one
finger to bring up a menu of options.
Once the menu is available, there will be another button with the
confusing name of "show menu" or words to that effect, a confusing name
since the initial menu is already up at that point. However,
double-tapping this additional menu choice presents you with chapters
from the book's table of contents along with a library button. Once you
double-tap the library button, you can access books which have been
downloaded to your iPhone or all books which you have purchased. There
are buttons for either Cloud or Device, the former showing you all books
that you have purchased. Double-tapping each of those books downloads
the book to your device, which, for you, is your iPhone.

Hello: I decided to have a look at the kindle app on my iPhone. I hadn’t used it for a while. To my surprise it appears to me to be no longer accessible. I am wondering if anyone else has found this.
