The 10 BEST Kindle Paperwhite Tips & Tricks ✨ + how to remove ads for FREE!

[@jeremyleemcdonald]

Tip for library books. If you turn off wifi after you download the book from the library it'll stay on your Kindle until you turn wifi back on.

[@Baileyroberson]

What that’s amazing!! Thank you for the tip! I noticed sometimes they’d stay for longer but didn’t realize it was wifi!

[@jeremyleemcdonald]

Yep, they send the signal to take it away, and the book becomes available for others to borrow, but until wifi is turned back on it hangs around on the Kindle giving extra time if you need it. Don’t turn that wifi on because they’ll take it away pretty quickly lol!

[@robertb67]

Does the library charge a late fee if you do that?

[@jeremyleemcdonald]

@@robertb67 nope. The “book” is able to be loaned out to the next borrower as normal. As far as they know it was removed from your device - and it is as soon as connection is restored.

[@jeremyleemcdonald]

If it’s a really popular book, and you’re feeling particularly generous, you could download the book, kill your wifi, then login to your account on a computer to return it early for the next reader.

[@TrangNguyen-gq3ib]

OMG i just followed your instructions and chat with them nicely, they removed the ads immediately without any cost! Thanks so much you are my life saver!!! 🎉❤

[@TheThermalLizard]

I just tried and they said they no longer do this. They were still helpful and pleasant to deal with.

[@MMH21998]

I've tried a few times to get ads removed your approach was the only one that worked. I didn't say it was a gift but did mention they were inappropriate, which they are. The rep removed them instantly. Thank you!

[@Baileyroberson]

So glad it worked for you!

[@TheKiwibirder]

Thanks for all the great tips! Also, it is so refreshing to see a young person who is concerned about making sure she does not view any inappropriate material. God bless you!

[@trishr.3986]

Nice video! I just bought a refurbished Kindle Paperwhite that was supposed to have no ads. Well, it did. After reading reviews I called Amazon support and supposedly the ads were removed. I checked Amazon and it does show that. However, the ads still show up and I have to swipe to get to my books. I went through several times of restarting my Kindle, while the rep was on my phone, and they still showed. I had to go to work, so he said he will call me tomorrow. I just think Amazon should turn the ads off in such cases before the customer even uses their product. It's just a click on a setting. Anyway, I learned a few things from your video and will be trying them, so thank you for doing this! I did set mine to dark mode (I'm a night owl) and even in daylight it feels better for my eyes. My previous Kindle is a gen 3, so I have new things to explore!

[@Baileyroberson]

I’m glad you learned some things!! Hopefully Amazon gets that sorted out for you soon!

[@marysmith86]

Thank you so much for the tip about removing ads. I live in UK but followed your instructions, they agreed during the online chat to remove ads if I paid the money and they would refund it straight back which I have now checked and its all done ! Brilliant tip and no more ads 👍

[@Baileyroberson]

That’s great, glad it worked for you!

[@AmieDeLalla]

@@Baileyrobersonthey flat out refused me. I went round and round. Nice as can be. When he said he had to end the chat if there was nothing else I asked that he remove the ads and I’d pay. He did. They were removed and I immediately asked for a refund. He said they would come back but others said they don’t come back. He said there’s no possible way I can remove adds without a $20 fee. Liar 🤥

[@Baileyroberson]

Dang, I'm sorry! This video has gotten lots of comments about it working for others. I wonder if maybe Amazon started to see the pattern of people asking kindly to remove, & then they made it a rule/told their employees to be stricter. :(@@AmieDeLalla

[@mak_iii]

Thanks for the removal ads tip! It worked for me. Thank you! 😘

Hi, Some very good information, but I could not tolerate you're sing song manner of speaking, any longer so I had to cut your video short. It began to grate on me. Let me share with you something very important when it comes to public speaking. I learned this probably in the first week of speech class at DePaul University in Chicago, or it could have been at the Dale Carnegie course in the Palmer House in Chicago. It was the public speaking course by Dale Carnegie. This was 1967 and I still remembered plain as day now. " Never let the manner, distract from the matter. " That is a rock solid bit of advice for all of us that finds ourself speaking to others. Good luck ! T.hanks for the tips
