Menu: Tap to display a list of options. The menus are contextual, which means they change
to offer appropriate options depending on what you're currently doing with the device. For
example, on the Home screen of a Kindle with Special Offers, menu options may include
Shop in Kindle Store, View Special Offers, Kindle FreeTime, Vocabulary Builder,
Experimental Browser, Settings, List or Cover View, Create New Collection, and Sync and
Check for Items. Note that you can view content on the Home screen using the default
cover view or by list view.
When you're reading a book, menu options may include Notes, Portrait or Landscape Mode,
Book Description, About the Author, Reading Progress, and Vocabulary Builder. Note that
About the Author is only available for books that support author profiles.
Reading toolbar
A secondary toolbar displays when you're reading a book and tap the top of the screen.
Text (Aa): Tap to display font and text options for your Kindle books, including font size,
typeface, publisher font, line spacing and margins.
Go To: The Contents tab displays the book's contents, including Beginning and chapter
titles. Use the Page or Location option to further navigate your book. The options displayed
will vary depending on the content you're reading. Tap the Notes tab to access your notes
and highlights. You can also view Popular highlights and Public notes by selecting the
corresponding options under the Notes tab.
X-Ray: The X-Ray feature lets you explore the "bones" of the book with a single tap. For
example, you can see all of the passages in a book that mention specific ideas, fictional
characters, historical figures, places or topics. If X-Ray is not available for a book, the button
will be disabled. For more information, see X-Ray.
