No Pocket option on eReader
I have recently seen that you can have Pocket integrated with your Kobo Glo. Altough I had version 3.11.0 installed there is still no Pocket option on my Glo. What can I do to install it? I have tried factor reset several times to version 2.5.0 and then upgrading again, but it never installed Pocket. Do you know any solution?

I have a Glo on 3.11 and you sign into Pocket in settings under Accounts. One you've signed into your pocket account, or created one then your articles will sync to the kobo.

The problem is there is no such an option in Accounts, and when I tap Library on homepage there is no "Articles from Pocket".

Are you sure your running the latest firmware. I only bought my Glo today and my initial set up went from 2.3 to 3.8 and I manually added 3.11.

I believe that Pocket was not available on Japanese versions. There might also be some affiliate linkage as well.

This may be something connected with Japanese version, as on browser homepage there was some japanese site in older version as far as I remember. So can anything be done to manually install Pocket?

You'd need to ask on the developer forum if you can do anything to update to the European software. Assuming your 3.11 is the Japenese software.

I have 3.11 version from this forum, the problem is i didn't have pocket in any version, even after I did factory reset and then installed every single update from this site to the newest ones.

I can't help, sorry, my only thought would be to ask in the developer forum if there's a way to completely replace your Glo's software.
