Send to Kindle for PC 1.1.1.256 new update

jhlovestoread · 09-29-2024, 09:08 AM

Just went to send an ebook to my Kindle using Send to Kindle for PC and a notification for a new version update popped up. Has anyone installed it yet and used it? Wondering if it's safe to install since the last time I tried an update the thing glitched and I had to uninstall and install an older version because the new version at the time was farked and I haven't updated mine since then. I'm a little terrified of updating the software and having it not work.

I should add that I do not know what my current version is, but it's old. I haven't updated it in at least a year, possibly longer.

just curious why youre using this program over the website, does it do anything differently?

The website allows up to a 200MB file while the Send to Kindle app is limited to 50mb. OTOH, right click and Send to => Kindle may be more convenient than opening a web browser.

For the OP, I updated and sent 4 books without an issue.

It also installs as a printer driver (at least on Intel Macs) so you can send from any application that prints.
