# Old Amazon Kindles are getting cut off from the Kindle Store in a month

**[XDA Developers](https://daily.dev/sources/xda-developers)** · 1 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Amazon is ending Kindle Store access for devices released in 2012 or earlier, effective in about a month. Affected models include the original Kindle (2007), Kindle DX, Kindle Keyboard, Kindle 4, Kindle Touch, Kindle 5, first-generation Kindle Paperwhite, and several Kindle Fire tablets from 2011-2012. Users can still read previously downloaded books, but will lose the ability to purchase or download new content from the Amazon Store.
