Kobo Glo Warm Light No Longer an Option

The Westerner · 08-10-2021, 01:29 AM

I just updated my firmware for the first time since 2019 and now the backlight is just the cool white and there's no longer an option for using the warm light in the brightness menu. It looks like a big hassle to revert to an older firmware—especially on a Mac—does anyone have a solution to this?

Or if there's no solution does anyone know which firmware version cut out this support so I don't have to fumble my way through firmwares past?

Comfortlight Pro isn’t offered on the Kobo Glo or the Glo HD.

About ComfortLight PRO

ComfortLight PRO is a feature that adjusts the screen’s blue and red light to make reading easier on your eyes. During the day, the screen displays a small amount of blue light to keep you alert. As the day progresses, the light gradually changes to an orange candlelight, and contains less blue so that the blue light doesn’t affect your sleep.

ComfortLight PRO is available on:

Kobo Libra H2O
Kobo Forma
Kobo Clara HD
Kobo Aura H2O Edition 2
Kobo Aura ONE
