Sending Docs to your Kindle

If you want to send a book (or a document) to your kindle, follow my step by step guide.

(This was originally written in 2018 and I’ve found there are changes to menu names so I’ve updated it.

  1. Log into Amazon and tap on Your Account’. A menu like this will open.

2. Scroll to ‘Manage Your Digital Content and Devices’ towards the bottom. Click on that.

3. Along the top you will see three tabs. Your Content – where your books are stored, Your Devices – a list of what you own, and Preferences, which is where we are going to look.

4. Scroll to the bottom and you’ll see all the devices you own. Mine go back ten plus years because it won’t let me delete them. You can edit your Kindle email to make it easier to remember, as I have done. On the list you’ll see Karen’s 4th iPhone , which I changed to kazzmoss@kindle.com. This goes to my Kindle app and to my actual Kindle.

So if you want to send an EPUB file or a document, you put that address in your email and send. You may get an email in return asking you to verify your address. Do that, and you are good to go.

5.  Further down the same page, you will see the Approved Personal Document List E-list. This is where you can enter the people who can send you a book or a document. Your email might just be there by default, if it isn’t, then you can add it.

I hope this has been useful.
