The Kindle Store is a big seller of e-books, and ePub is the most popular format.

It’s a seemingly insignificant move that, in reality, fixes a long-standing issue in the e-book market. Once the update is released, you will be unable to obtain any new ones.Īfter nearly 15 years, the ePub format will finally be supported by Amazon’s Kindle. But don’t worry if you already have MOBI files on your Kindle they will continue to work. The reason for this is that these are old formats that can not support the most recent Kindle features or any future ones. In addition, Amazon said that they won’t be supporting the “.MOBI” and “.AZW” file types in ‘Send to Kindle’. Even so, Amazon has not stated what else this format will be labelled. You will still have to transfer the file to your Send to Kindle email address in order to convert the e-book from EPUB to a format that the device can read. Kindles might not have native EPUB support. Amazon has subtly confirmed that Kindle devices will eventually support the EPUB format until late 2022, as well as expand the ways in which owners can get e-books.
