So I must bite the bullet and move to the new home screen.
Can I customise it at all?
E.g at the bottom it has Find your next great read -and- Browse...
I never go online with the Kobo, can I get rid of these
On the left it has current book -and-My Books - these are ok
At the right it has Top New Releases -and- one author apparently randomly chosen from what I have on the device. Both of these are pointless for me.
Can someone point me to instructions how to fix this, if possible?
Thanks a lot...
I don't have any inside knowledge but based on what I've actually seen so far on my own devices
  • If you've opened enough books the whole top row will be your 4 most recently read books. So to that extent the top right & left could be said to be "customisable".
  • Similarly, the middle right area shows 3 covers from the last Collection I opened a book from (My Books - Collections tab - select a Collection - open a book). So, again, it could be said to be "customisable".
Middle left always seems to be 'My Books'. The 3 covers displayed may be the 3 most recently added but I'm not too sure about that until I've loaded some new books.

The bottom right (text-only) section seems to change regularly, whether it's random or a fixed cycle I don't know.

The bottom left (text-only) always seems to be 'Browse Kobo'. As it's not particularly large or intrusive I'll live with it and never press it.
