Amazon is not one to miss out on any revenue market and today proves this by making its free Kindle apps more appealing to customers who are either\u00a0blind or visually impaired. The upgrades are not available on all platforms yet, but are certainly a move in the right direction.<\/p>\n
New features will allow customers to access the read aloud feature for the more than 1.8 million titles available in the\u00a0Kindle Store and seamlessly navigate within their library or within a book, including consistent title, menu and button names.<\/p>\n

However, the online retailer promises that these will come to other mobile devices soon. For now, Apple customers can visit the iTunes\u00a0Store to grab the latest version of the free Kindle app<\/a> and take advantage of the new updates.<\/p>\n Amazon is not one to miss out on any revenue market and today proves this by making its free Kindle apps more appealing to customers who are either\u00a0blind or visually impaired.
