So, while I don’t have any kids, I wonder if I couldn’t adapt “profiles” to be a kind of supra device independent collection manageable from the web page side?

If you have two Kindle Fires with FreeTime on them and can test out whether or not it asks you which Kindle should have a given book, I’d really appreciate it. I think this suggests some really powerful tools coming our way! I wouldn’t be surprised if this was connected (at least in terms of development) with Whispercast. This might not work as well with apps, though, which are device type specific.
FREE TIME UNLIMETED ON OLDER KINDLE FIRE DOWNLOAD
They could do it so that the items are just available for download if they aren’t already on the device. You could log into a profile on a given device…although that might cause it to download a lot of things if they aren’t on the Kindle. You could create different profiles for different devices, if you wanted. It would be trickier to mass send books, because it would tend to overwhelm a Kindle (in part, because of the indexing it has to do). For example, for people who delete things from their archives (I don’t), I think that could be handled in that fashion. Third, they could give us a “select and act” option in MYK (Manage Your Kindle). Second, they have to drop that demographic information in the profile! I don’t like putting in a gender and birthdate now. It would take just a little bit of tweaking to have this mean online management of our libraries.įirst, we’d have to be able to create profiles without passwords required on the devices to make this more convenient.
FREE TIME UNLIMETED ON OLDER KINDLE FIRE PASSWORD
On the plus side, though, you don’t have to keep entering your password as much. Here, you have the advantage of search, but it takes a few steps to add each individual item. It is, however, perhaps easier to add content from the Kindle Fire, since you can just check boxes. It also means you can manage the content without having to hold on to the device for a while (which might be annoying, if your child was anxious to use it). This suggests that, if the profile holder moved from device to device, you wouldn’t have to recreate the “whitelists”.
You can add it right from there to one of the profiles! More interestingly, though, is what happens when you go to a book, or video, or app.
Page, I noticed there is a new category forįrom there, you can create profiles, give them names, enter genders, pick their avatars, and change the birthdates. It allows you to set up profiles for your children (or anybody, really), and control which specific books, apps, and videos are available to that profile. In a recent update to the Kindle Fire HD and Kindle Fire 7″ SD (2nd generation Kindle Fire), we got an app called FreeTime. You can manage Kindle FreeTime centrally at MYK
