Amazon Kindle eBook (AZW) is the format Amazon introduced with the first Kindle in 2007. It is built directly on Mobipocket, adding Amazon’s own DRM so that purchased books are tied to a customer’s account. Text in an AZW reflows to fit the screen, and the format carries bookmarks, highlights, and reading position, which sync across a reader’s devices.
Books bought from Amazon open on any Kindle e-reader or in the Kindle app on Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS, provided you are signed in to the account that purchased them.
Calibre reads and converts DRM-free AZW files and is the usual tool for managing a mixed e-book library. Note that DRM-protected purchases will not open outside Amazon’s apps — that restriction is by design, not a fault with the file. Newer Kindle titles use the AZW3 format instead. You can also convert the file with our AZW to EPUB tool.

Mobipocket eBook (MOBI) is an e-book format built for handheld devices, storing text as compressed HTML so that it reflows to fit small screens. Amazon bought Mobipocket in 2005 and made MOBI the foundation of the original Kindle format. It supports bookmarks, annotations, and a table of contents, but not the complex layouts or embedded fonts that EPUB allows. Amazon retired MOBI support in 2022.
Calibre is the most capable option: it reads MOBI, manages your library, and converts between every common e-book format.
Older Kindle e-readers and the Kindle desktop app still open MOBI files copied over USB, and mobile apps such as FBReader and Moon+ Reader handle them too. Because Amazon’s Send to Kindle service no longer accepts MOBI, converting your library with our MOBI to EPUB tool is worth doing.
