Hello, thank you for using Howly.
Did you use an app or the web version of the store to search the books?

Some Kindle Books from your library aren't supported on certain Kindle devices or reading apps.

Yes, you are right.
To see whether a Kindle Book is incompatible with your device or app, look for a Kindle restrictions link under "Formats" on the ebook's details page.

Customer Replay

where do i find the details page

In the bookstore.
Please, find the settings of the search.

Customer Replay

it only lists payment method and country/region under store settings
they are up to date

Please, try to do this, on the Home Page:

  1. Tap the top of the page arrow open the top menu.
  2. If the Plane Icon is ON tap this icon.
  3. Close the Menu using the arrow at the bottom.
  4. On the Home page you should now see a Wi-Fi Icon at the top.
    And then try to search the books again.
