Yes. Download the book when connected to WiFi, and it will be available when you have no connection.

Question

If I download the Kindle app to my iPad, will all of the books on my Kindle be downloaded to my iPad?

Community Answer

After downloading the app, sign in with your existing Amazon account. After you successfully sign in, there will be two options: Cloud or Device. If you go to Cloud, you will see all of the books on your Amazon account. If you go to Device, you will see the books that are downloaded onto your iPad. To download books, go to Cloud and tap on the books you want to download. They will immediately start to download. They will then show up on Device, and you can read without a connection.

Question

My book downloaded to my Android Kindle, but it will not show up on my iPad Kindle. What do I do?

Community Answer

If your book was downloaded from the Kindle store, it probably wasn't downloaded to your iPad. Look for books not yet downloaded and you may be able to find it. Or you could go to the Kindle store and force download it from there. If you downloaded your book from an external source (say, as a .prc file from an open source library), then you'd have to download it again with your iPad from whatever open source you found it on.

If this happens even after you restart your device, something might be wrong with your account. Perhaps you should contact customer service or change your password.

Question

After reading the sample, how do I get the rest of the book?

Community Answer

There should be an option to purchase the book through the app/website you used to download the sample. Otherwise, you can find the book on Amazon's website and purchase it there.

Question

How do I stop books from automatically downloading on my iPad's Kindle app? My hubby and I share our Amazon account and he does not want my books on his iPad Kindle app.

Community Answer

You can use a separate email account for the iPad app. This will enable you to read books downloaded by you without reaching your husband's account.
