Calibre does not work well for retrieving books from the Kindle apps for Andriod or iOS. Even if you can locate the book files most will be in KFX format, which calibre does not support. Many of the rest will have DRM and there are no working DRM removal tools for recent versions of those apps.

I recommend using the Kindle for PC or Mac program instead. The latest versions of those also use KFX, but there is a sticky thread here on how to avoid that.
