This is what I did. Haven't felt the need to take it off of airplane mode yet.

    I'm honestly surprised how many people I see doing this. No judgement , it's just now how I use the device.

    I couldn't give up my syncing of progress! I love being able to pick up on the Kindle app on my phone if I'm in a waiting room then back to my kindle proper at home.

    I'm jazzed to finally have been able to jailbreak my device so I can use KoReader on both the phone and Kindle and keep the same experience.

    Is KOReader android only? I don’t see it in the App Store. The main feature of the Amazon reader apps for me is the position sync so I can read on the go. I’d hate to lose that feature.

    Unfortunately I believe it isn't available on iOS. On Android you can install it from a few sources. Directly from GitHub, or via F-Droid(or something similar). I'm with you though, that feature is key to me not scrolling forever.

    After digging a little further, there is an iOS alternative called Readest (https://github.com/readest/readest) available in the App Store. Along with this video to walk you through the sync process https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=WfP-qLMhMso. Overall, it took about an hour for me to get everything set up after I found these resources and I’m super stoked.
