I'd love to keep this device working with Pocket. Is there any way to upgrade Android? I imagine I'd have to root this and possibly unlock the bootloader. Can it be done?
AFAIK Onyx Boox Poke runs Android 6 not Android 4.4.4. Could you check it again?

EDIT: You are right, only Poke Pro runs Android 6. Poke runs Android 4.4.4.

It's very likely that Onyx Poke will stick to Android 4.4.4. If you want to download the last version of Pocket, you can download v7.37.0.0 from apkmirror.
