1. I just checked amazon UK - still at version 3.15 July 16.

2. how can you pass off cropping huge borders of covers in book view details as a "design feature". what was wrong with the v3 details view design which did not crop anything ?
In some cases you now even crop off the title and/or the author?. Since that's the only one of of the 5 views which shows reading progress / number of last page read, I would like it to be pleasing to the eye - so no ugly cropping.

3. Archiving: despite when your support guys say - in amazon version 3.15 there is NO WAY to unarchive a book from the device that archived it. I have done this test 3 times now: download as a test your user guide, then sync it, then archive it.... and wait for that process to complete. Now they say, I should be able to change the view filter to archive and tap the cover to get it back. I see it in archive view but NO- if i tap it I get "error : book not on device what you do want to do...." and 3 useless options like search the device !

...well the answer to "what do you want to do " right now is " I want to switch to moon+ reader "!
Seriously I am this close to giving up with both v3 and with v4. I will give it one more week of fixes to see if improved by year end, otherwise its Moon +1 bookari -1

PS I just read the recent reviews on Google Play - you are getting many 1 star reviews, most of them saying "used to be great- why did you have to go break it ?"
so please - take the platform, tell us what you have done that makes v4 better than v 3.. and tell us why there has had to be ~10 releases in 2 days ( as reported by some google reviewers)
