You can't buy books via Kindle app on iPhone. You have to manually open Safari, go to amazon site and buy a book there. I believe it's exactly because Amazon does not want to give Apple the cut of the book profit.
- rjmunro 9y agoIt's because Apple won't let you do in app purchases that don't use their payments system, and if you use their payments system, they take a 30% cut. But we are talking about Google / Android, not Apple / iOS here.
- yoz-y 9y agoYes, because kindle books are considered content for the application. Its the same for Audible. But the original point was that there is no Amazon Store app on the Play store (which there is) and the other applications are there but crippled. It is perfectly reasonable for Amazon to not want to give a 30% cut on books to Apple. I wish there would be some exception for this kind of content in the stores.
