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, topics, and terms. You can also view notable clips and
images from a book in a stack of digital cards organized on a timeline, enabling you to quickly
skim through the clips and view all of the images in one place. For more information, see
X-Ray.
Share: Tap to share your thoughts with friends on Goodreads on Kindle and other social
networks.
Bookmarks: Tap to add or delete a bookmark on the current page, and view previously
added bookmarks. The Bookmark button on the toolbar changes from white to black on
bookmarked pages. A preview pane displays when you tap a bookmark in the list. To go to the
selected location, tap the preview pane. To exit the bookmark feature, tap outside of the
bookmark dropdown.
