Hi Sharkus - wondered if you could shed any light on a curious blip. When I opened the Kobo app on my iPhone this afternoon, I rather bizarrely received the 'highly decorated' award, in spite of only having 18 awards (17 on iOS and the Vox-specific 'eReading Rainbow'). Any ideas?
Thank you |

Anyone else? I was sure the 'Highly Decorated' award for receiving 20 trophies - the icon certainly suggests that! I have noticed this kind of issue before - if you start up the iOS app after mainly using other Kobo platforms for a while, it often pings out awards that you weren't aware you'd earned...

Thanks lessthanyouthink I'm not of course suggesting this is an earth-shattering issue but as I enjoy collecting RL awards I'd like to earn them properly. If resetting all my RL awards is the only way to fix this apparent glitch, I wouldn't mind hugely as that means I could earn them all again

Just as a quick footnote to my post above: is it possible to reset the reading life awards for a particular account? Should I bother opening a support ticket?

Meanwhile, I was rather intrigued by a reading life notification I received this afternoon: it appeared to be a a new award, but with no actual (current) award attached. It was called 'gimme a quarter' and popped up quietly with when I hit the 25 per cent mark on the book I am currently reading. The wording of the notification sounded quite similar to current awards |

Status changed to "In Review" last night, so there is some movement. Given the new iPad launch, I suspect they are somewhat busy with many, many devs submitting apps with new graphics to take advantage of the retina display.

A bit off topic but will older iPads be able to use the apps designed for the 'new' iPad? Or is this the front end of a schism in the iPad universe?

Of course a developer could potentially release an app that is retina only, I cannot think of any such apps though. |

Trying to rewrite your complete app to do this is not a small undertaking however. |
