Can anyone advise if collections still show up on the PW after the update, and do docs still show up in those collections whether or not they're downloaded?

TIA,

Its the opposite for me. When ALL is bold it shows everything, cloud stuff and the stuff that is on my device. Items on the device have a checkmark.
When "Downloaded" is selected and bold, it only shows the books that are on my device. I have a Voyage.

So for me its working as it should be.

Make sure you have "all items" selected to see docs and books.

What do you mean by "all items"? Is that an option on the kindle?

@Waitingforatrain: The weird thing is that I'm going off of what I selected. So I 'touch' on "ALL" and now it only shows a few books, and it's bolded. I touch on "DOWNLOADED" and it shows all of my books (which are sideloaded).

So it definitely seems like something is wrong.

Oh I see what you mean. To choose "All items" on the top right. Yeah it was already chosen to begin with. I even tried choosing something else and then choosing it again. It really does seem like "ALL" and "DOWNLOADED" are flipped for me.

I choose "ALL" and it says "ALL ITEMS (12)". I choose "DOWNLOADED" and it says "ALL ITEMS(306)".

Something is definitely wrong there.

Helvetica's weight doesn't matter as it's a terrible body font for reading. What Amazon really needs to do is up te weight of Bookerly.

Perhaps it doesn't matter to you, but it matters to many other people. I read exclusively with Helvetica.

It does not cause a feeling of terror in me, I have to confess, although my preference is for Caecilia.

As do I. I prefer sans fonts for reading in all things.

Same here, I very much prefer it over Bookerly.

I read using the Bookerly font all the time now, it just works for me much better. I find the Helvetica just too dark for me.

Yeah I've been using Bookerly since it came out, used to it.

When I got my Kindle last year September, the first update out of the box brought in Bookerly and I had been using it exclusively until recently. Now I am addicted to Helvetica

I think what Jon means - and forgot to emphasize - is that FOR HIM it's a terrible body font. And, indeed, it may be for some other people, too. It is a matter of OPINION.
