cc: @mltony, @seanbudd I don't know if the crash can be fixed, otherwise I would say disable text paragraph navigation for kindle completely because this command is set by default and users might deal with this crash accidentally when pressing p.

How do you setup kindle app? I bought a sample kindle book - but in order to read it it asks me to log in and presents me with a visual captcha - seemingly with no audio option.

You must put the book in full screen in the view menu to repro the crash.
