Compared to the previous firmware:

The font sizes are larger for the book title, which unfortunately means that some titles no longer fit and have to be truncated.
The series information is no longer in a different shade of grey, but is capitalised instead.
The menu button at the left of each book has gone, the book menu is now activated by a long press. Unfortunately the space saved is now taken up by the file type and read status, so there is actually less room for title and author information than before.
I like the new cover view and the idea of replacing menu buttons with a long press action, but would prefer the space saved to be used either for more book information or more books per page, instead of just larger fonts. |
i have the kobo mini.
just make it clear instead of just touching the screen on rhs to go to next page you have swipe it?
and there is no way to stop this in settings as i just currently touch and it moves forward?
and also in library the sliders have gone and you have to swipe or go to page number?
see when using swipes how many pages will each wipe move forward in library.
reason i ask is i have 9700 books in the kobo mini and that is lot of swiping.
the sliders made it easy but swiping...
