However I’ve noticed something mildly annoying about the highlighting system… So it seems like I’ve discovered a bug that happens when I use a mouse (Logitech Anywhere 2S Mouse) but functions perfectly fine if I use the trackpad.
The app hasn’t crashed on my yet and I’ve yet to have issues with any of the books I’ve opened. As far as I can tell the app works mostly as intended.
#AMAZON KINDLE MAC APP PRO#
This is written in from the perspective of a 2018 MacBook Pro 15 inch. It was lacking a single page flip format like this Kindle app does for the digital book I bought. The flaw with the magazine format was presenting the left and right pages at the same time so by default it was zoomed out to fit both pages on the screen at the same time thus making the text small and blurred. For the magazines, I would have to zoom in on the text in order to read it and use the scrollbar to get across the whole page. I was weary of buying the book digitally since I did not have a great experience with purchasing magazines in a digital format in the past through other applications, not Kindle. I was about to dock a star since there was an image of a table on a page that was hard to read but found that double clicking the image brings up a larger easier-to-read version.
I was thrilled when opening the Kindle book I bought to see how beautifully rendered the text was and the ease of navigating through it. This is an impulse review so my opinion may change after awhile. I love Kindle and Audible and I hate to give it a bad review but on Mac, this app is garbage. I hate to buy the books twice because I obviously can only do this with the hard copy now (with the added inconvenience of not having the reference on the screen next to what I’m working on). It is infuriating to try to learn something while your app can’t stay on the intended page and 2/3 of your learning time is getting annoyed and fighting the program just to keep the page. I gave up on it a few times, then came back because I already paid for the book and was determined to get through it. When I ordered another book, this time on Python, it was the same wretched experience. Unfortunately, I forgot about that experience and, being busy with work, didn’t have time for Kindle until recently. Then I’d get it right and halfway through the page it would start doing it again. So then I’d have to go back the other way. Clicking to find the page would also result in it going much further than I intended it to. Then I would have to go back and find the page I was on. I didn’t click anything, I didn’t hit any keys. With no input from me whatsoever, the pages jumped forwards or backwards by 2-8 pages. Seven months ago I purchased a book on Javascript and attempted to work my way through it. However, using it on MacOS is frustrating. I’ve used Kindle for years and I have always loved it.
