Amazon Disables iOS Kindle App

2 pointsby chris1993over 1 year ago
In the last 24 hours Amazon made a change so that downloading a new book to the iOS kindle app causes the app to shutdown. Once a new book is downloaded the app will spontaneously shutdown after about 30 seconds. Currently there’s no fix.

Definitely a bug. Deregistering the device resolves the issue. Discussed on reddit and apple forums.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.reddit.com&#x2F;r&#x2F;kindle&#x2F;s&#x2F;IOnHT8bA2D" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.reddit.com&#x2F;r&#x2F;kindle&#x2F;s&#x2F;IOnHT8bA2D</a><p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;discussions.apple.com&#x2F;thread&#x2F;255387338" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;discussions.apple.com&#x2F;thread&#x2F;255387338</a>

This doesn’t reproduce for me. Also, it sounds more like a bug than a “disabling.”
