For kobo, do you tap the top of the screen to get the menu - same as kindle?
Got a video of some issues, I used the Kindle Voyage for comparison
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nkEGsDvWLjk
The video shows four reading scenarios where e-readers are deficient, based on some academic articles*
- Going back to find a related passage
- Bookmarking
- Going to a specific location e.g. Page 102 or Chapter 7
- Non Linear Reading
Do you think navigation is OK or could it be improved?
