I had a Kindle eBook reader for several years that was great for reading outside, even on the beach. Then I bought my current iPad mini (sold the Kindle) and today was very disappointed to find it very difficult to read outside. I purchased what was supposed to be a State-of-the-Art screen cover (Tech Armor) to reduce glare and make it easier to read but it didn't help. Any suggestions?

Buy a new ereader (I'd say anything but a Kindle)!
As a matter of fact, you're used to an epaper screen, which is the best electronic device to read in sunlight.
The iPad, on the contrary, has a bright backlighted screen, which in direct sunlight is a beatiful mirror.
I own both an iPad Air and a 9;7" ereader, and I knew before purchasing my iPad it's not intended for reading outdoor.
I remember this ad, which resumes the issue.
Why don't I recommand a Kindle? Because you're tied to Amazon. Kindle uses a specific file format which isn't ebook standard. And you never completely own the book you purchase at Amazon's, as was proved when Amazon remotely deleted 1984 from Kindles.
Try tapping aA in the upper right corner of the page. You can change screen brightness, type size, fonts, page color, and scroll view.
