The power of the pen

Add handwritten notes to your books

Make notes in your documents

Securely import files to your Kindle Scribe through Send to Kindle (on your desktop web browser , or the “Share” button via the Kindle app for iOS and Android ). Files imported via Send to Kindle are encrypted in transit, and while stored, are secure in Amazon’s data centers, which are designed to meet the most stringent security requirements in the world. Mark up PDF files imported in original layout, or insert sticky notes on imported Microsoft Word documents and other compatible Send to Kindle file formats. Coming early 2023, you will also be able to send documents to your Kindle Scribe directly through Microsoft Word (Microsoft 365 subscription required).

Read and write in any light
