For Kindle owners who’ve had to grapple with manually converting their ebook library to a more Amazon-friendly format with an app like Calibre, this will be a welcome change.īut another upcoming change is that Kindle will finally lose the ability to support MOBI, an older French file format that was Amazon’s proprietary ebook format for a while. But up until now, Kindle devices couldn’t read the ePub format. Amazon’s Kindle Store is a major ebook seller and ePub is the most widely-used ebook format. It’s a change that - at first glance - seems rather minor, but in truth solves a lingering problem in the ebook industry. The update is scheduled to occur in late 2022.

Compatible formats now include EPUB (.epub), which you can send to your library using your Send to Kindle email address. Any existing MOBI files you want to read with our most up-to-date features for documents will need to be re-sent in a compatible format. It only took about 15 years, but Amazon’s Kindle will finally support the ePub format. MOBI is an older file format and will not support the newest Kindle features for documents.
