This app does not support purchasing: How to buy and add books on Kindle App

What happens when you open the Kindle app to purchase your favorite, but there isn’t any option to buy that book in there? Some of the iPhone/iPad users have faced this problem where this message is showing up “This app does not support purchasing.” in the Kindle app. You have to take alternative measures to troubleshoot this issue.

 

Fix – Buy the book from a browser

This error seems to be happening on the Amazon app. So, you can log in to your Amazon account from an alternative browser, purchase it there, and then you can read it on the Kindle app on any other device.

Step 1 – Open up a browser of your preference.

Step 2 – Go to a new, fresh tab and then visit Amazon. Tap the “Sign in” option at the top bar.

This will take you to the Kindle app on your iOS. There you can read the books.

Additionally, you can enjoy the same book on the Kindle app on any device, provided that you have logged in with the same account.

NOTE – Once you purchase a Kindle format of a book on Amazon, it will automatically get synced to your library. So, you can access your purchased or owned books from any device of your choice (like your iPad, MacBook, or iPhone).
