Beginning in late 2022, Kindle users will be able to use Amazon’s free Send to Kindle tool to view EPUB files on their e-readers. Thankfully, Amazon published an update to its support page this week, sharing a new workaround for EPUB fans. Users could get around this by converting files to MOBI using third-party services but, with Amazon ending support for MOBI and AZW files at the end of this year, that could soon be a problem. However, despite its prevalence as an e-book format, EPUB has never actually been supported on the Kindle – one of the biggest e-reader lines on the market. The format is based on HTML and has been around since 2007 in places like Google Play Books, Apple Books and on Kobo devices. This week’s winner is Amazon or, more specifically, the company’s e-reader division, after it quietly revealed that its Kindle line would be getting EPUB support.ĮPUB (Electronic Publication) is an open standard file format commonly used for e-books.
