I own a Kindle Paperwhite.
## Whispersync
Whispersync means to sync the position of the audio book to the ebook. It seems to be the prerequisite to [[#Immersion Reading]] and [[#Audio companion]].

## Immersion Reading
Immersion reading is **not** supported on Amazon e-ink devices.
[What is Immersion Reading?](https://help.audible.com/s/article/what-is-immersion-reading?language=en_US).
This functionality allows you to read a Kindle eBook and listen to its professionally narrated Audible companion Audiobook – all at the same time. Not only that, but you get the benefit of real-time highlighting, making Immersion Reading a valuable tool to boost reading comprehension and overall retention of content.

## Readwise
How to get [[Readwise]] highlights into [[Obsidian]]? It goes something like this:
```mermaid
flowchart TD
k[Kindle Paperwhite] --> a[Amazon]
a --> rp[Readwise Firefox plugin]
rp --> r[Readwise]
r --> op[Obsidian plugin]
op --> o[Obsidian]
click rp "obsidian://open?vault=design&file=%F0%9F%8C%B2%20Notes%2FAndreas%20M.%20Antonopoulos"
```
This was the first time I made a [[Mermaid]] diagram inside [[Obsidian]].
