no donaload confirmations + a risky "download all" option
on Kindle Fire
I dind it disconcerting that when I find a book via conent ewrver & say dowanoad it. there is no confirmation that has happened. I am havin got go yout into ES fie explorer to check.
there also seesm to be no notification added onto the pull down settings screen, ( which usually has a list of updates, downlaods etc)
the other scary thing is that I listed newset bookts, and selected the 1st one only. then I see a box to press that says "downlaod all" - I thingk that was the only download options showing.
so I press that, expecting it to trasale "all" as " all the ones ticked" but away it goes downloading allthe 1800+books that are not on the tablet"!, while I madely press cacenl, discaonnect, and any other button I can find!
some sort of " are you sure", or you have chosen to download nnnn books do you wish to continue, would seem sensible, here ?
PS, in another mode, still in content server, I search for a title, view a book detail and I then get to an option to view metadata or to download, but also I get some reference to a "download queue". are downloads immediate or are they batched and triggered by some event - like disconnecting from the content server.
I think dummies like me need more on-screen help & feedback!
Final one: my library has lots of original_epub files, which are not going to associate to any app. could there perhaps be a preference setting to hide that format ?.
