You can resolve these problems one of two ways:ġ) Use a different reader app that can open Amazon formats such as mobi, AZW and AZW3 and remember the reading position. Again, there is nothing we can do about this. On Amazon devices, CC can ask the builtin reader app to open a book, but unfortunately doing so automatically resets the reading position to the beginning of the book. These Amazon choices mean CC cannot open books in K4A. K4A is one of the very few reader apps on non-Amazon devices that does not publish to Android the kinds of books that it can open, and does not provide a way for another app to tell it to open a book. Stripping the DRM allows you to read your book on any of your devices using any reader app you choose. For these reasons many people remove (strip) Amazon's DRM on books they buy when the book is loaded into calibre, using a calibre plugin provided by Apprentice Alf and friends.
Also, you can read DRM-protected books only in K4A. Said another way, you cannot download a book on your computer to be read with Kindle for PC/Mac then expect to be able to read that book in K4A without downloading it again. Because Amazon's DRM is per-device not per-user, you cannot read a book on device A that is downloaded on/for device B.
Unfortunately, the DRM can also prevent you from doing reasonable things like using CC & calibre effectively. Amazon's intent is to prevent people from reading books that they didn't buy. 1) DRM Applied to BooksĪmazon "locks" most books you buy from them using DRM. The second is that the K4A application is strange, not implementing normal Android features. The first is the Digital Rights Management (DRM) applied by Amazon to most books.
