There are other ways to transfer files to your Kindle, like sideloading them with the Send to Kindle app or using the popular eBook management program Calibre to transfer them.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m a long-time Calibre user and can\u2019t say enough good things about it, but unless you\u2019re managing an extensive eBook collection, the app can feel like a wee bit of overkill for just firing some books or documents over to your Kindle. It\u2019s a great app for power users, and people who want tricks like turning their favorite internet <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a> feeds into Kindle-friendly magazines, but not everybody needs all that.<\/p>\n<p>Even downloading and installing the Send to Kindle app might seem like a bit much for a one-off file here or there. Thankfully there\u2019s a really simple method that requires no installation of anything and works from practically anywhere. Email.<\/p>\n<p>Emailing a book or document to your Kindle is one of many really handy but underused Amazon Kindle features. In the early days of the Kindle, it was the only network-based sideloading method available (as the Send to Kindle app wasn\u2019t released yet). It\u2019s also the secret ingredient that allows popular read-it-later services like Pocket and Instapaper to send articles and digests to your Kindle.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the old-school vibe, it\u2019s still a fantastic way to get a book or document to your Kindle with minimal fuss. Once you set it up, it\u2019s so trivial to use that you might have a shot at filling your Kindle up to the point that you have to do a little housekeeping.<\/p>\n<p>And the best part about it, you can use the trick along with all the other methods like the Send-to-Kindle app and Calibre. So for those times you\u2019re away from your favorite app, you can just fire off an email.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_Do_I_Email_Books_to_My_Kindle\"><\/span>How Do I Email Books to My Kindle?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Emailing a book or document to your Kindle is straightforward as long as you do a little bit of homework first and follow some basic guidelines. Once you set things up, you\u2019ll be set and won\u2019t have to fuss with it again.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Locate_Your_Unique_Kindle_Email_Address\"><\/span>Locate Your Unique Kindle Email Address<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Every registered Kindle has a special @kindle.com email address. Even if you\u2019ve never used yours before (or had no idea such an address existed before reading this article), there\u2019s still an automatically generated one waiting for your use. Just log into your Amazon account and navigate www.amazon.com\/myk. Select your Kindle there to get additional information about it, including the unique email address.<\/p>\n<p>You can also find Kindle\u2019s email address in the\u00a0 Amazon mobile app by tapping the menu button and, from the shortcuts drawer, clicking on the \u201cAccount\u201d icon. In the Account section, navigate to Account Settings &gt; Manage Content and Devices &gt; Devices, and select your Kindle for the same information.<\/p>\n<p>The default Kindle email address format is firstnamelastname_XX@kindle.com, using the first and last name of the account holder and a two-digit identifier in the XX section of the address.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Add_Your_Email_Address_to_the_Allowed_List\"><\/span>Add Your Email Address to the Allowed List<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Email is, unfortunately, nearly synonymous with spam. Getting spam content automatically delivered to your Kindle would be infuriating, to say the least. Thankfully, there is a mechanism in place to prevent it.<\/p>\n<p>Your Kindle email address will only accept emailed files from your manually authorized email addresses. You can find this list, called the \u201cApproved Personal Document E-mail List\u201d under the \u201cPreferences\u201d tab for your devices when logged into your Amazon account. On mobile it\u2019s located in the same place as the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a> Devices section we highlighted in the previous section.<\/p>\n<p>There, you need to add the email address you will be using to send the documents to your Kindle. For most people, this will be their primary personal address. For people using a third-party eBook manager like <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/janeczku\/calibre-web\">Calibre-web<\/a> with a free email address set up specifically for the purpose, or configuring their Kindle to accept digest emails from read-it-later services, enter that email address instead.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Send_Compatible_Files_to_Your_Kindle_Email_Address\"><\/span>Send Compatible Files to Your Kindle Email Address<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>With that basic housekeeping out the way\u2014checking your Kindle\u2019s unique address and authorizing the address you want to send the files from\u2014all that is left to do is send some files.<\/p>\n<p>First,\u00a0 you need a supported file type. The Kindle email service supports the following format types:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>eBooks: EPUB, PDF<\/li>\n<li>Documents: RTF, DOC, DOCX<\/li>\n<li>Web Pages: HTML, HTM<\/li>\n<li>Images: JPG, JPEG, GIF, PNG, BMP<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you\u2019re familiar with the Kindle ecosystem, you might have noticed that MOBI and AZW files\u2014two formats long used by Kindle eBook readers\u2014are missing. Ironically, you can\u2019t send either to the Kindle email service, but when you do send any non-PDF book or document file to your @kindle.com address, it will be converted to an AZW file before it is sent to your Kindle. Go figure.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and if you\u2019re surprised to see that the Kindle Personal Documents emails service supports EPUB files (after not doing so for over a decade), it\u2019s part of Amazon\u2019s partial adoption of the format in 2022.<\/p>\n<p>You can send up to 25 documents to your Kindle email address in a single email. The total size of the email attachments, regardless of the number of attachments, cannot exceed 50MB. The service supports ZIP files, so you may zip multiple documents together to get below the 50MB threshold (although you are still limited to 25 in a single email).<\/p>\n<p>There is no requirement for anything special in the subject line or body of the email, so when firing off documents to your Kindle you just need your @kindle.com address and the files.<\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s it! Found an interesting PDF online you want to read on your Kindle, but you\u2019re currently looking at it on your phone? No problem, attach the PDF to an email using your phone\u2019s email client, fire it off to your Kindle address, and it will be automatically delivered to your Kindle. Same thing if you\u2019re on your PC.
