Hi all,

How accessible is the Kindle app on the iPhone and iPad? Can you easily 
navigate through the book, and can you take notes? I'm also wondering if 
Kindle books can be read on the Mac.

Last summer I posted about an article on library accessibility I was 
writing. The publication I was writing for passed on the piece, but I 
have since found another (and I think) better venue. I'm talking about 
how libraries can be more inclusive by using free or mainstream 
technologies, like NVDA, Voiceover, Chromevox, and Windows 8 Narrator.

Since a lot of libraries use Kindle for some of their ebooks, I'm 
mentioning how accessible that is in real life. My experience on Android 
and with the Fire HDX is great. My experience with older Kindle devices 
and the PC software is that these are fine for leisure reading, not for 
the kind of detail oriented reading involved in studying or learning.

What is the experience on Mac and iOS?

Thanks.

Ciao
