Apple Books Vs Kindle App

750 000 ebooks on kindle and 60 000 books at ibooks launch apple has not released exact numbers.

Apple books vs kindle app. For example you can buy e books through apple books to take advantage of family sharing by also use the amazon kindle app to take advantage of kindle unlimited and amazon prime. A kindle is perfect for reading novels. Kindle s lack of color is not the major obstacle though.

If you want to spend more time reading each app lets you set reading goals. The apple books app lets you browse books and then add them to a list of those you want to read. Kindle is similar only that you can add books to your amazon wish lists.

The apple books and kindle apps are both free to download and available for iphone ipad and mac. Kindle notifications add books to a wish list. Problems start to appear if you want to read ebooks that contain illustrations graphs or tables.

To me this is the differentiating factor. With ultraaffordable e ink readers midprice color tablets like the nexus 7 ipad mini and kindle fire hd and even the more. It wins if you re taking screenshots but when reading there s really no difference.

And in the sepia mode ibooks is a little less brown and a little more contrasty. In general ibooks always looks better than the kindle app. Choose an ipad if you want to read textbooks or comics.

With kindle you can also read books on android windows and other e readers besides the amazon kindle. All you have to do is set the right font size. For example it has more font choices than kindle.
