[Trainer-Talk] Amazon Kindle App for PC no longer working with JAWS

[Ron Miller]

Hi Chris,
I have just, briefly, tried the latest version of Kindle, Version: 1.35.0 (64251), which I Updated just a few minutes ago to check out your report.

Using JAWS version 2022.2204.20, I can successfully read files using both speech and braille, I can also successfully copy text, a sample of which I have pasted below. The only thing I have noticed, which I will report as a bug is that JAWS repeats the book title information when you either first open the book, or Tab away, then back to the Kindle screen.

Copy and Paste Sample

Chapter Two
Piracy Problems CMS Dolly Mars Belt Sector The M-337 mining drone stabilized its position near the giant asteroid, releasing a couple of short puffs of gas. As the drone completed a final adjustment, the operator on the ship activated its cutting laser one last time, slicing into the chunk of ice to cut it free from the floating rock. "Careful, Hank. That's a big piece of ice," Joshee said.

Hello. I just tried to read a book with the Amazon Kindle App for the PC. This app worked very well for me but after an update, I found that I can no longer read books. I'm currently using JAWS 2022 latest build under Windows 11. Is this a known issue with the app and are there any solutions.

Thanks Much.

Chris
