What is a AZW file?

AZW is an eBook file format developed by Amazon for use on its Kindle devices. It is a proprietary version of the MOBI format and includes support for DRM (Digital Rights Management) to control content distribution.

AZW files typically contain text, images, bookmarks, and metadata. They are mainly downloaded from the Amazon Kindle Store and are tightly integrated into Amazon’s ecosystem, limiting their compatibility with other devices.

How to open AZW files

AZW files can be opened using Amazon Kindle devices or the Kindle app on Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android. Kindle Previewer is also available for developers and publishers.

To read AZW files on non-Kindle devices, you may need to remove DRM protection and convert them using tools like Calibre. AnyConv can help with format conversion if DRM-free.
