How to Change Your Kindle Device Email Address

Sometimes you might want to change your Kindle device's email address to something more memorable or personalized. Here's how to do it through your Amazon account.

Why Change Your Kindle Email?

Your Kindle's email address is used for sending content wirelessly to your device. You might want to change it to:

  • Make it easier to remember
  • Create a more personalized address
  • Better organize multiple devices in your household

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Access Your Amazon Account

  1. Go to Amazon's Manage Your Content and Devices page
  2. Sign in with your Amazon account credentials if prompted

2. Navigate to Preferences

  1. Click on the Preferences tab at the top of the page
  2. This will show you various Kindle-related settings

3. Find Send-to-Kindle Email Settings

  1. Scroll down to the Send to Kindle Email Settings section
  2. Here you'll see all your registered Kindle devices and their current email addresses

4. Edit Your Device Email

  1. Find the device whose email you want to change
  2. Click the Edit link next to that device
  3. Enter your new preferred email address (it will still end with @kindle.com)
  4. Click Update to save your changes

Important Notes

  • Availability: Not all email addresses may be available. If your preferred choice is taken, try variations or add numbers.
  • Update toKindle: After changing your email, remember to update it in the toKindle app or extension settings.
  • Testing: Send a test article to make sure everything works with your new email address.

What Happens After the Change?

  • Your new email address becomes active immediately
  • The old email address will no longer work for sending content
  • Any apps or services using the old email (like toKindle) will need to be updated

A personalized Kindle email makes sending content even more convenient and memorable.
