The Kobo Vox - and in particular, Pulse - gets a mention in this recent article from UK newspaper the Daily Telegraph:

However, I found the reference to Pulse a little puzzling. I quote:
"Its Pulse system shows you not just how many people have bought a particular book on their Kobo, and where and what time of day they read it, but also how many finished it.
I can’t be the only person secretly fascinated to know how many people really did get beyond page 42 of Stephen Hawking’s A Brief History of Time. “Being able to see that 90 per cent of readers actually finished a certain book against 20 per cent for another title you’re thinking of buying could influence your purchasing decision,” says Lindsey Mooney, vendor manager for Kobo."
I know you can view likes and comments on Pulse, and the number of people who have finished a particular book, but can you really see "where* and what time of day they read it", or how many people have bought the title (without necessarily finishing it)? Is this an iOS-only option - or am I missing something on the Vox? Perhaps it's something for authors only? (The author of the article is a novelist).
*I assume she means on what app or device, rather than the reader's geographic location
