Amazon has prepared a great news for fans of audiobooks. From now on, when playing voiceover Kindle for iPhone or iPad application will would highlight the currently read part of it. Audio Companion tested in practice and I’m with him more than satisfied.

The Kindle is not only a device in the form of market-leading e-book readers, but also the software. Amazon created an entire ecosystem for readers and more boldly integrated with each other audiobooks and eBooks.

Audible and Kindle go hand in hand.
