Save to Kindle Troubleshooting Tips

Did you enable Show Personal Documents in the Kindle app?

  1. Open your Kindle app and then tap the Menu button (looks like three horizontal lines)
  2. Tap Settings
  3. Check the box that says Show Personal Documents in Library

If you followed the steps to Show Personal Documents in the Kindle app and you tapped Save to Kindle App in BookFunnel, your Kindle app should automatically import the book. You can pull down on the home screen of your Kindle to refresh the app.

If that doesn’t add the book, here’s a quick tip to get the Kindle app rescan the BookFunnel download folder!

  1. Tap the Recents button at the bottom of your Android screen. Your Recents button may not look exactly like the one in our screenshot, but it will always be next to your home button if you swipe up from the bottom of the screen.
  2. Swipe up on the Kindle app to force-quit the app.
  3. When you open the Kindle app again, it should rescan for new files to import.

If the Kindle app still doesn’t import the file:

  1. Open the BookFunnel app
  2. Tap Library at the bottom of the screen
  3. Tap the book cover
  4. Tap Send to Another App
  5. Tap Send to Kindle
  6. The BookFunnel app will download the Kindle file and open Send to Kindle
  7. When Send to Kindle opens, tap the orange SEND button.

If the Kindle app still isn’t adding the file, even after downloading the book, enabling Show Personal Documents, and force-quitting the Kindle app, use Send to Kindle instead:

  1. Open the BookFunnel app
  2. Tap Library at the bottom of the screen
  3. Tap the book cover
  4. Tap Send to Another App
  5. Tap Send to Kindle
  6. The BookFunnel app will download the Kindle file and open Send to Kindle
  7. When Send to Kindle opens, tap the orange SEND button.

Tapping Save to Kindle App will download a Kindle file and save it in your local storage folder. It will not sync to other Kindle apps or devices.

To sync with other Kindle(s), use Send To Kindle instead:

  1. Open the BookFunnel app
  2. Tap Library at the bottom of the screen
  3. Tap the book cover
  4. Tap Send to Another App
  5. Tap Send to Kindle
  6. The BookFunnel app will download the Kindle file and open Send to Kindle
  7. When Send to Kindle opens, tap the orange SEND button
