Your Kindle can read aloud your books (where allowed by the rights holder), newspapers, magazines, blogs, and personal documents with the Kindle Experimental application, Text-to-Speech.

To turn on Text-to-Speech:

  1. Press the Text key .
  2. Select “turn on” next to the “Text-to-Speech” option using the 5-way controller.
  3. Press the Text key again to adjust the speaking voice and rate.

On the other hand, Voice Guide lets you navigate your Kindle with spoken menus, selectable items, and descriptions. For example, when you open a book, Kindle speaks your current location and how far you’ve read.

To turn Voice Guide on or off, follow these steps:

  1. If you are not already on the Home screen, press the Home button.
  2. Press the Menu button.
  3. Move the 5-way to underline “Settings” and press to select.
  4. Press Next Page to go to Page 2 of Settings.
  5. Move the 5-way to underline “turn on” or “turn off” next to the “Voice Guide” setting and press to select.
