"all results" search results no longer working?

4691mls · 11-02-2020, 07:18 PM

If I search for a word in a book it brings up a list of all results in the book like it always has. However, if I go to one of the results, then tap on "all results" so can look at the results list again, it's blank. I think this started happening after the last firmware update. Is this happening on anyone else's Kobo?

FWIW my reader is unmodified and these are library books I obtained by syncing the Kobo.

It is broken in the 4.24.x firmware. I don't know if it was broken before that, because, while I do use the in-book search, I usually get what I want from the results list.

I reported it to Kobo a couple of weeks ago. It should be fixed in the next release.
