en.Wedoany.com Reported - Amazon has introduced three reading assistance features for Kindle devices, designed to help readers quickly resume reading after interruptions, track plot developments in long-form works, and instantly answer questions encountered during reading. These features are now available to US customers and support thousands of bestselling English ebooks that users have purchased or borrowed.

Among them, Recaps provides a quick overview of books already read, preserving the joy of discovery in reading, similar to "previously on" segments in TV shows and movies. Recaps is currently available on Kindle devices and the Kindle iOS app in the US, accessible via the series page in the Kindle library or through the series grouping menu on Kindle devices.
Starting today, Recaps adds the "Story So Far" feature, offering spoiler-free progress summaries for thousands of popular novels. This feature helps readers quickly review plotlines and character arcs, allowing them to re-enter the story world without flipping back through chapters. Story So Far is currently available on Kindle devices and the Kindle iOS app in the US. Users can access it by long-pressing the book in the Kindle library to find the "Reading Recap" button, or through the three-dot menu while reading.
The Ask this Book feature acts as a reading assistant, instantly answering questions about plot details, character relationships, and thematic elements. All responses are based on the user's current reading position, with the option to query the entire book. Users can highlight any passage in purchased or borrowed books, then click suggested questions or type their own to get instant answers. Ask this Book is currently available on the Kindle iOS app in the US, with plans to expand to Kindle devices and Android apps later this year.
Users can also engage in continuous conversations with Ask this Book by asking follow-up questions. All three features are designed to provide immediate assistance without disrupting the reading flow.
