Kindle Address Book Screenshots

Let’s start with the main Kindle Address Book Page -

Please Note: These screenshots show Kindle Address Book app with anti-aliased font turned off. You can turn on anti-aliasing and it smooths out fonts and they look much better.

Main Page for Kindle Address Book

This is what Kindle Address Book Main Page looks like

At the top left is a ‘New Contact’ button. You can move the cursor to that button using the 5-way. Then you can press down on the 5-way to go to the Add New Contact Page and add a new contact.

At the top right is the Favorites button. You can move the cursor to that button and then press down on the 5-way to get a list of only your favorite contacts.

There is a search field below these two buttons. After that is a list of all your Contacts. Below the list of Contacts is an indicator of what page your are on.

You can press the Aa key on this page (or on most other pages) to – change the font size, turn on anti-aliasing on newer Kindles, to go to full-screen mode, etc.

Next, let’s look at the Flipbook (you can go to it by pressing Menu on the Home Page and then choosing Last Name Flipbook) -

The Last Name Flipbook lets you view all Contacts whose last names start with a particular letter on one page. There is also a First Name Flipbook.

After that, we have the Add New Contact Page -

On this page you can add a New Contact. At the top you have the First Name and Last Name. After that you get Groups, Phone Number, and Email.

You can click on Groups to choose which groups this user belongs to. You can choose one, none, or more groups.

You can click on the Add Field button to add one of – Address (Work or Home), Phone (Work, Cell, Home, or Fax), Birthday, Job Role, Organization, Facebook, Twitter, Website, and other fields.

There are lots of useful shortcuts – Alt+S for Save, Alt+X for Save & Exit, Alt+C for Cancel, Alt+DEL for Delete, and Alt+F for Add Field Picker.

The Edit contact page is identical to this page except it also has a Delete button (Alt+DEL) that allows you to delete an existing Contact.

We will go into more pages tomorrow – probably via Video as its clearer to explain. Please let us know if you have any questions – via a comment on this post or via an email to booksummit@ymail.com.

You can find Kindle Address Book at Amazon for $1.

  3. Groups feature that let you organize Contacts according to the natural groups they fall under (work, friends, family) or into your own custom groups.
  4. All the fields you might want – Address, Email, Phone, Website, Facebook, Twitter, Birthdate, Note, etc. Add as many fields of each type as you like (except birthday, only one of which can be added).
  5. Lots of options to search your contacts – Last Name Flipbook and First Name Flipbook let you quickly see all contacts with a name starting with a particular letter, Search lets you filter by group and details, and there is even a search on the Contacts Home Page.
  6. Quick and Fast Typing and the same shortcuts and usability enhancements that made our Notepad and Calendar Apps a hit (both are rated 4.5 stars at the moment, on 150 and 33 reviews respectively). Note: There is no copy-paste in Address Book.
