Hi all
My OH bought me a Kindle for Xmas and I've managed to get some books onto it.
On my Android phone, I've got the MoonReader app which has some books already attached to it (as far as I know they're in the same format, i.e. mobi).
Is there any way of telling the Kindle app that these books exist on my phone and where to find them?
I've googled as best I can but come up with nothing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Your books need to be in AZW3 (I think) format and have copies stored in the folder that the Kindle app uses to store its books so you need to get into the file structure on the phone. This is much easier to do if you plug the phone into a PC and browse the folders from there.In deep...0

@mwddrwg - thanks for that, I'#ll have a look on my phone's file structure later and have a dig around.
@debitcardmayhem -I started using calibre and did a few books but it seemed to create duplicates copies for some reason. I might give that another go before I wander around the file structure.:wall: Flagellation, necrophilia and bestiality - Am I flogging a dead horse? :wall:
