galaxy tab 3 strange display problem

Hi all,

I have a galaxy tab 3 that i use mainly to read books using the kindle app. A couple of days ago something happened that now makes anything viewed on the kindle app really dim. Everything else on the tablet is bright. I have checked the tablets brightness settings and they are at the highest level, i have tried itwith automatically adjusted brightness and that has no effect on the kindle app, though does dim anything else. I don't remember adjusting any other settings either deliberately or by accident.
Does anyone have any suggestions of how to rectify this? I really ned the kindle app back to normal brightness as i use the backlight to read in bed without the light on to avoid disturbing my wife.

Thanks

Olias

    If you have tried the app help .
    Then try removing the app and reboot then install the app again .
  • The Kindle app has its own brightness settings, which override the system ones when in use. If you tap on a page to bring the options bar down, and then tap on the Aa icon, you'll see the brightness settings appear.
