Kindle on iPhone: now shows books as docs

    I bought a new book on Amazon the other day and synced it to Kindle on iPhone. Weirdly, the app _now_ shows most of my other books in the "Docs" section rather than the "Books" section - and now shows them without covers (just a generic thumbprint with "DOC" on it.) Has anyone else seen this happen?

    Yeah, but it only happens to books that I load onto the kindle app myself, never happens to any of the books that I 'officially' get from the kindle store.

    I've noticed that sometimes a new app update puts it right again, it is an eye-sore and a bit annoying tho. What I usually do is use iFunbox, I take all my non-kindle-purchased mobi files (kindle ebook format) off of my device, eject device from software, reconnect, and then put said files back on again using the same software and method. A two minute job and it always works for me!

    :D
