I bought Kindle Fire HD few months back. I had some problem managing Kindle with Ubuntu, apart from that my experience with it is pretty much good. While looking for some free ebooks in English, I downloaded one mystery novel which had very steamy poster. While checking my Kindle, my friend took it for erotica. I must accept it, it was kind of embarrassing. So decided to delete it from the device.

If you are a Kindle user, you know that there are two options to view the books are apps in it. The books installed on device and the books saved in the cloud. Problem arises here that you can delete an app or book from the device but it will still be shown in the cloud view. And if you want to delete it from cloud, you have to use the web interface. Lets see how to do it.

How to delete books and apps from Amazon cloud:

Follow the steps below to remove a book from Amazon cloud:

Step 1:

Go to and login to your account.

Step 2:

Click on Your Account and then choose Manage your Kindle.

Step 3:

It will bring you to the Kindle Library where you can see all the books and apps that you ever downloaded or purchased. You can choose to delete the item from Action button on the right of each item. Once deleted, it won’t show up in the cloud view of your Kindle.

That’s it. I hope you find it useful. Enjoy
