New process: 1) drag your finger along the words that you want to highlight and Kindle automatically highlights it and brings up the pop-up menu 2) Now you still need to click outside of the pop-up menu to dismiss it so you can continue reading.

Am I missing something here?
I just got the update and don't see anything faster about it either. Short highlights didn't need speeding up; multi-page highlights did.

And now a tap that used to turn the highlighted page edits the highlight instead - I have to remember to swipe.

I do like the ragged-right option though - definitely a marginal improvement...
