While you might enjoy curling up on the couch with a great book on your Kindle, there may be times when you don’t have your device handy or you simply want to read while using your PC.
Thankfully, Amazon has offered two different but equally convenient options for reading your Kindle books from the comfort of your computer: the Kindle for PC app and the Kindle Cloud Reader.
The Kindle for PC app is free software that you download and install to your computer like any other program, allowing you to use your Amazon account to sync your Kindle books on any device with the Kindle app installed (or on an actual Kindle).
Meanwhile, the Kindle Cloud Reader allows you to access all of your Kindle books via your web browser without the need to download software.
