Dictionary for Kindle app on iPad?

KlondikeGeoff · 04-23-2013, 07:24 PM

I have the Kindle 1st Gen as well as 1st Gen Fire, and have a lot of books purchased. My wife got an iPad some months ago. I loaded the Kindle app on that, and transferred several of the books I already bought to that for her to read.

It has the same sort of system for looking up words...just hold on the word and the dictionary pops up.

Unfortunately, while this works on the iBooks, it does not onthe Kindle books on her iPad.

I am wondering if there is some app that will let this work on Kindle books, or some procedure to make it work.
