Progress Indicator
At the bottom of every page of your reading material, you can see where you are by glancing at the progress bar. The start location indicates the starting point for your current reading session. As you progress further into the content, you will see a solid bar growing longer to indicate your overall reading progress. The progress bar shows structural marks within content such as articles, bookmarks, notes, or highlights. The progress bar also indicates how far you’ve read during your current reading session.
In books, the progress indicator also shows you the overall percentage of the book you have read and a numeric location of where you are reading, so you can easily find a particular passage or reference it to your friends. Locations are the digital answer to page numbers. Changing the text size on Kindle also changes the page numbering, but with locations, you return to the same place every time regardless of the text size.
