Basically I am on a PW1, one of the reasons I won't buy a PW2 is Cloud Collections as I only want to see collections for books on my device, not my husbands 40 collections and 800 books.

Is this now possible?
If you set the collections to All Views, then that collection will be viewable everywhere. If you star it then it is visible on the Home Screen and in the Collections view only. When you are in Collections view on the Home screen, it greys out the Cloud and Device options.

If you want to see just your collections, then you should unstar all your husbands collections, then set your view to Collections. But keep in mind when in Cloud view, any books that in collections that are not starred will show up as not being in any collections. I am not sure if the same thing happens in device view because all of mine are in collections that are visible.

Honestly, I like this new iteration of Cloud Collections, I have to tweak what is starred on mine in order to only show Collections, but it is a vast improvement over seeing all the Accounts collections on every device. I hope they plan to integrate this feature on all types of devices with Cloud Collections. And of course they should have included on the website what is actually shown and/or hidden when you hide collections from the Home page.
