    ok weird one hidden Kindle feature: screenshots.

    1. tap opposite corners of teh screen at teh same time.
    2. The screen flashes. 3 ;) Connect your Kindle to a computer and find teh image files on its storage.

    It works on touchscreen models like teh Paperwhite lol Older keyboard Kindles used a key combination instead. Note that some content may not be capturable, and its best for personal use. any ideas??

    been there man if you just wanna share a quote, Kindles highlight and share feature may be more convenient.

    Screenshots are saved on the Kindles main storage, often in the root folder or a screenshots folder depending on the model.

    Screenshots are for personal use. Sharing large portions of copyrighted books isnt okay.
