Practical: You can also pack the files in a ZIP archive to save space. You can do up to 25 books send along, but the total size of the mail must not exceed 50 MB. Just send a plain text email to this inbox, attaching the epub files. You can find the target email in the Kindle Settings under My Account - Kindle Email Address. If you send documents to this mailbox as attachments, they will be converted in the Amazon cloud and added to your library. If you have the files on the computer, you can send them to the reader by e-mail, for example. There are several ways to get your epubs onto the Kindle. Amazon now also allows epubs (and other documents) to be sent easily to the Kindle via email, app or website. But it's slowly getting better! For example, if you want to send an electronic book in the standard Epub format to your Kindle, you now have to use tools such as Caliber grab or them convert manually. Unfortunately, Amazon still doesn't make it easy to read books from other sources on the Kindle. If you use Windows 10, Microsoft Edge can display EPUB files natively. If Edge isn’t already set up as the default program to handle EPUB files, right-click on the file, point to the “Open With” menu, and then click the “Microsoft Edge” option.Despite good alternatives, Amazon's Kindle is the e-book reader of choice for many people - not least after the really nice reissue of the standard reader. If you’re trying to open one on your desktop, you’ll probably want a third-party application. IPhone and Android devices come preloaded with their own applications to open eBooks-iBooks and Google Play.

RELATED: How To Organize Your Ebook Collection with Calibre You cannot read an EPUB file directly on a Kindle, but there are ways to convert one to something the Kindle can use. You can open an EPUB file whether you’re using a Kobo, Barnes & Noble Nook, or even on your desktop using one of the many free programs, such as Calibre or Stanza Desktop. Because of their widespread use, more hardware eReaders support EPUB files than any other eBook file format.
