Warning - Kindle Store button removed from Amazon app

After a quick search on this forum I can't find another thread on this subject so...

I was updating apps on my iPad this morning when I noticed the description for the Amazon app update says it removes the Kindle Store Button.

Apparently this is because of Apple rules. Googling the subject, Computer World says you now have to launch Safari or other browser on your iPad and surf to the Amazon store. Then go through the purchase process.

The alternative is to decline this and any further updates to the Amazon app.

Thank you for making my life difficult, Mr Apple.

Oh, I spoke too fast. You can just use the Amazon app one more time to access the Kindle Store button. It actually just launches Safari and takes you directly to the store and your account. Then you can add the bookmark to your Home Screen. In future, to go to the kindle store and your account, it is just one tap on the bookmark.
