I've been researching for ways in which I could fetch Notes & Highlights from my Kindle Account to an iOS/Android App.
Things I know so far
- There is no official Kindle API which Amazon provides, at the moment (Sep 2021)
- There are few ways in which I could achieve this functionality but most of them are from Web-Scraping in which I would have to explicitly provide email address and password for the Amazon account for accessing highlights from Kindle Highlights Url
- There are few git projects which already help with web-scraping but again, we have to explicitly provide email address and password
- PHP : https://github.com/johnpaulhayes/Kindle-Highlights
- Ruby : https://github.com/kyamaguchi/kindle_manager
- Ruby : https://github.com/speric/kindle-highlights
- There are few official app which have this functionality of syncing all the highlights from Kindle to the app but I'm not sure how they achieve this
- ReadWise : https://readwise.io
- Calibre : https://calibre-ebook.com
- clippings.io : https://www.clippings.io
So just to summarise my question.
I'm looking for a way to access Kindle Highlights & Notes from my kindle account directly to my app both in iOS and Android.
From the examples above, I know its possible but not sure how to go about implementing it.
Any help would be appreciated
