and magazines. To view your Cloud content, tap Cloud in the top left of the Home screen.
Cloud tips:

If you wish to download content that you have in the Cloud, tap Cloud on the Home screen,
then tap on the item(s) you want to download to your Kindle. You can cancel a download by
tapping on the item's title.

Cloud items that have been downloaded to your Kindle display a tick on the upper right
corner of the cover image when in cover view and on the right side of the screen when in
list view.

Once you have downloaded an item, you can either open it from the Home screen or
directly from the Cloud.

Your personal documents are saved in the Cloud if they have been e-mailed to your Kindle
