Now whenever I side-load a public domain book and put in in my To Be Read collection, I get a warning that I have added an item that will not be backed up in the cloud. Big deal. Side-loaded books never have been backed up on Amazon's servers; nor would I expect them to be, but that warning is annoying. It needs a "Do not show again" option.

Ohh. Now I see. No. I didn't because I only bookmark a single page and then I remove it when I go back to it. I've just bookmarked multiple pages and now I see the list. |

The bookmarks require two taps now? Personally, I like the sound of that -- it's too easy to create one accidentally.

It's actually quite a good system, once you get used to it, but it did take me a few minutes to figure it out at first. It wasn't immediately clear that it didn't just add a bookmark to the current page like it used to. I understand why it doesn't; the bookmark hotspot at the top of the screen has been repurposed for calling up the bookmark interface, not for adding/clearing the bookmark. |

@Gazella: "add", not easily. Switch existing fonts to other, custom ones, yes.

I can't see the goodreads and the free time on my Kindle 5.4.4. Does is have to do with my localization, being outside of US? And I can't see other features, I guess or I don't know how to acess them

Have you registered the Kindle, and also connected it to Wifi after the update?
On my Kindle the new features only showed up after I connected it to Wifi. |

IIRC, it needs to be registered to a US account. Wether you're actually in or outside the US at the time is not relevant (so far).

my kindle is registered and I have connected it to Wifi, it has even downloaded an amazon instructional letter. So, it must be the localization then.
