It's a common problem for Kindle users: their device starts to overheat and stops working. It can be incredibly frustrating, especially if you're in the middle of an exciting book. But don't worry - there are steps you can take to fix your Kindle when it starts to overheat.

First, check if the ambient temperature is too high or if your Kindle is in direct sunlight. If either of these conditions exists, move your device to a cooler area. Then, make sure all apps and software are up-to-date - this can help reduce power consumption and overheating problems. Additionally, avoid using multiple applications at once as this could cause overheating issues too.

Finally, consider investing in a protective case for your Kindle that includes cooling fans, they provide extra protection against heat damage while keeping the device cool during use.
