GZreader – Sync with computer

This page needs Chrome or Edge on a computer (Windows, Mac, Linux or a Chromebook): it writes to the Kindle's drive, and other browsers can't. Open 9retirement6irk.github.io/GZreader/sync there.

Test mode: a pretend Kindle kept in this browser. Nothing is written to a real Kindle.

1 Connect your Kindle

On the Kindle: Menu → Sync → Connect to computer (or exit GZreader): the Kindle can only share its USB drive while GZreader isn't running. Plug it in, then choose the Kindle's drive (or its documents/GZreader folder). After you eject it, GZreader starts again by itself.

No Kindle at hand? Try the page in test mode with a pretend Kindle.

Many calendar servers (Google, Proton…) don't let web pages read their links. Then download the calendar as an .ics file and add the file: each sync on this computer reads it again.
