Amazon are updating their support for Epub and Mobi formats.

Send to Kindle will no longer be supporting Mobi files, but will start to accept Epub files instead. When sending an Epub file through Send to Kindle, the service will convert it to a format supported by the Kindle.

The Kindle app for Android and iOS will also gain Epub support.

This only applies to the Send to Kindle service and the mobile apps - Kindle devices will not support the Epub format.

Officially, this takes effect from August, though some people have found that they can already send Epubs through Send to Kindle.

Any questions, drop them below, or if anyone has links to Amazon support pages on this, it would be very helpful.

Thanks u/viper_in_the_grass for flagging this.
