Hello all,
I am a non-techie using a Kobo for the first time - a Kobo Forma.
I am generally happy with my Kobo, however the navigation annoys me.
Particularly, the fact that I need 4 clicks to to access the browser. That's why I'm looking for a way to access the browser directly from the Home screen.
I have been reading here and there about software that can be installed on Kobo and about patches, but found nothing promising and, anyway, most goes over my head.
I have 2 questions that I hope you can answer:
1. Is there a way (software, trick, etc.) to have shortcuts or widgets on the Home Screen?
2. Can Android be installed on a Kobo Forma?
Thank you very much,
ML
