Why take a screenshot on your Kindle Reader
Kindle has changed the way we read books. And with each version, Amazon has added a few useful features to improve your experience. The ability to take screenshots is underrated for many reasons.
First, the bookmarking or bookmarking options for saving a few lines of text in your book are quite cumbersome. We feel it’s much easier to take screenshots of a few pages for future reference.
