Q: How to cancel your Kindle Unlimited subscription
If you don’t feel as though you are getting good value for money from Kindle Unlimited, it’s really easy to cancel your subscription. You can access your Memberships & Subscriptions through the Amazon website or through the app.
Q: Does Kindle Unlimited feature Amazon’s Whispersync technology?
Not all titles in the Kindle Unlimited library are Whispersync for Voice-enabled, which lets you easily switch between reading an ebook to listening to an audiobook without missing a single moment of the story, but thousands of titles do support the technology.
If a title is enabled, it will pick up where you left off, even if switching from text to audio. For most titles you’re reading, however, Whispersync will keep track of your location in the book no matter which device you’re reading on.
Q: Can you share a Kindle Unlimited plan?
No, unfortunately, you cannot share a Kindle Unlimited plan with friends or family members. Unlike Amazon Prime subscriptions, Kindle Unlimited is (ironically) limited to only one account per subscription.
