If you’re an avid reader and love your Kindle, why not showcase your current book as your lock screen? Not only will it show off your reading prowess, but it will also motivate you to continue reading whenever you pick up your device.

Here is a simple step-by-step guide to set your current book as your Kindle lock screen:

Step 1: Ensure you have the latest Kindle software

Before you proceed with setting your current book as your lock screen, make sure you have the latest Kindle software. To check, go to ‘Menu’ > ‘Settings’ > ‘Device Options’ > ‘System Updates’. If there is an update available, download and install it.

Step 2: Activate the lock screen

By default, your Kindle may not have the lock screen feature enabled. To activate it, go to ‘Menu’ > ‘Settings’ > ‘Device Options’ > ‘Device Passcode’ > ‘Turn On’. Follow the prompts to create a passcode.

Step 3: Enable book cover as lock screen

Once you have set up the lock screen, go back to the ‘Settings’ menu and choose ‘Display’ > ‘Show Cover’. This will allow you to display the cover of your current book as your lock screen.

Step 4: Set your current book as your lock screen

To set your current book as your lock screen, go to your home screen and tap on the book you are currently reading. Once it has opened, tap on the top part of the screen to open the menu options, then select ‘View Cover’. This will open the cover of your current book. Tap and hold the cover until a menu appears, then select ‘Set as Lock Screen’.

Step 5: Enjoy your new lock screen!

Congratulations, you have successfully set your current book as your Kindle lock screen! Now, whenever you put your Kindle to sleep or lock it, the cover of your current book will be displayed.
