  1. Hey Shehraj – Had a quick question. Have you come across or have heard about the issue of not being able to hear the audible narration while using the kindle app on Macbook?

  3. You can use any tool which converts images to text. Copyfish is something i heard a lot about, Maybe you can try it 🙂
