There has been a page background feature in some form since the first release of KF8. I can’t find a way to limit the window size, sorry: I took a few screenshots to give you an idea of what they look like, but then I noticed that Amazon has video previews – so I downloaded those instead. The romance titles had embedded videos, but the two public domain titles had animations. I bought several Kindle in Motion titles. There’s no known way for anyone to use KDP to produce this format.
The enhanced versions of the ebooks are limited to portrait mode only, and are quite large (200MB to 400MB).The ebooks sport various enhancements like animated covers, video clips, and page backgrounds which can be turned on or off if you don’t want to see them while reading.This includes four original romance titles and two new editions for an Edgar Allan Poe collection and The Secret Garden. Six Kindle in Motion titles are available right now, all from Amazon’s publishing division.I was scooped on this story because I was waiting for Amazon to respond to my questions, but while I was waiting I bought a few ebooks and spent a few minutes playing with the format. That format had embedded audio video clips, and debuted in 2010.Īmazon has not announced the new format, and they’re not even talking about it. So a couple weeks back Amazon quietly launched a new ebook format for the Kindle (I think it’s the sixth seventh different type of Kindle ebook).įirst noticed by KBoards, Kindle in Motion adds GIF-like animations which can be seen on the Fire tablet and in the Kindle apps for iPad, Android, and iPhone (if you read one of these ebooks on a Kindle, you’ll just see the regular ebook).Įdit: Kindle in Motion is not to be confused with Kindle A\V, or Kindle with Audio\Video.
