Fortunately, there’s a simple alternative: using the Send to Kindle webpage, which has a generous 200 MB file size limit. Order confirmation emails, our Library page, and other places where MOBI files were formerly available will now just offer PDF (plain and zipped) and EPUB.īeing able to use EPUB everywhere solves a lot of problems for us, but one mildly annoying issue is that the Send to Kindle app still has a 50 MB file size limit, and a few of our EPUBs are larger than that. Existing MOBI files already on your Kindle will continue to work just fine, but from now on, if you want to put a Take Control book on your Kindle, use the EPUB format instead. Since Amazon now fully supports the EPUB format, and is actively phasing out support for MOBI, there’s no longer any reason for us to distribute MOBI files, so we’re discontinuing them immediately. Once you have the new version of the app installed, you can drag EPUB files onto it to send them to your Kindle.

This was terrific news, because MOBI files have always been a huge pain in the neck, and EPUB has been the industry standard for a long time. Way back in May, Amazon announced that they were going to support the EPUB format on Kindle devices and in the Kindle app, and discontinue support for the Mobipocket (MOBI) format. An EPUB file short for Electronic Publication is an open-source e-book file format that is recognized by most e-book readers. ![]()
