One of the most common queries we get here at Pick My Reader is how to find page numbers on Kindle, and that\u2019s exactly what we\u2019ll show you how to do today.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>How to Check if a Kindle Book Has Page Numbers<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you\u2019re browsing the Kindle store for a new book, you\u2019ll see the standard options for pricing, a brief overview of the title and author, and then the features of the book. Scroll down the page until you reveal the Features box.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hit <\/span><b>Page Numbers<\/b><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Review <\/span><b>Page Numbers Description<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should also see the page numbers description when you\u2019re looking on the Amazon website for your next great read.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As you can see, finding page numbers on your next Kindle e-book really couldn\u2019t be easier.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How about viewing those pages once you have your title nestling in your library, though?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Default Option for Viewing Real Page Numbers\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Assuming the title you have chosen has the option for real page numbers, there are several ways to view these.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, if you have an older version of Kindle, page numbers are not offered as standard. Instead, you\u2019ll only see a percentage of the book completed. This is a poor substitute for page numbers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To view page numbers on your Kindle, here\u2019s what you need to do:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hit the center of the screen<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tap <\/span><b>Go To<\/b><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">View your page number<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether you\u2019re reading for enjoyment or for academic purposes, displaying real page numbers is a must.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We understand not everyone will be reading e-books on a Kindle device at all times, though\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Viewing Page Numbers In-App<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether you use Kindle App on a mobile device or a web browser, it\u2019s a much cleaner reading experience if you\u2019re able to view real page numbers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fortunately, as long as the book you downloaded has the option of real page numbers, they will appear automatically at the bottom of the screen. It makes sense to have these as the default because, well, who wouldn\u2019t want them?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are unable to see the page numbers at the bottom of the screen, you have increased the text size too much. When this happens, the pages are thrown off and the numbers will not be displayed. To get around this, do the following:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tap the page<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tap <\/span><b>Aa<\/b><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Adjust the text size<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you reduce the text size sufficiently, you\u2019ll see the numbers displayed at the bottom of the page.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you tap any page, this is enough to display the page number.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Kindle 101-- How to Jump to A Specific Page on the Kindle\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LS1m_F3FUm4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>What is the Difference Between Location Numbers and Page Numbers?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Several readers have recently asked us to clarify the difference between location numbers and page numbers on Kindle, so we\u2019re using today as an opportunity to clear that up.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Location numbers<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: These numbers pertain to each line of text. Location numbers help to streamline the experience of reading across multiple Kindle apps and devices tethered to your account. Location numbers help you to easily find a specific passage even if you have repeatedly made changes to the text size<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Page numbers<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Not all Kindle books include page numbers. If your title has page numbers, you can also track your location using the page numbers from the physical book. Changes you can make to font and features means you might be viewing more than one page on-screen<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>FAQ<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><b>1) Does a Kindle book have the same number of pages as the paperback version?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This depends on the book in question. The other variable is whether or not you have enlarged the text. If you\u2019re reading a book for a school assignment or for a book club discussion, it\u2019s vital that page numbers correspond with the physical book. These titles are accompanied by a caption reading \u201c<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Contains real page numbers<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>2) Where are the bookmarks found?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether you want to keep your page, or to save the locations of important text, bookmarks are the obvious solution. To make use of bookmarks, just click the flag icon in the upper-left corner of the screen. To find your bookmarks, just tap the page icon. You will need to scroll through a list of bookmarks to find the right one if you have multiple bookmarks.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>3) Can I lend my Kindle books?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You could lend your books out, but this would entail giving the person your Amazon account details. While this should be fine if you trust the person, we can\u2019t advise this as a wise course of action. Keep your passwords personal.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Since the original Amazon Kindle was launched back in 2007, tens of millions of readers have embraced the convenience of e-books.
