Who else hates the new interface with collections?

Freedomland · 06-10-2022, 01:20 AM

I reported a bug back Nov 21..and 2x in Dec and in Jan 22 for my PW5 The the new interface comes down a month after O put 5.014 2 on. And using Collections with uncollected books is a friggin nightmare. Plus another issue for my neighbor who just got a new PW5 but did you know that the system font on the new crappy interface is SMALLER than the old one?? And my friend has Macular. Oh..and I'm patient for these issues to be fixed. But how long does it take?? Bring back the old interface!!!

It's most probably never coming back.
There have been multiple people here on multiple threads expressing the same sentiments.

Your friend should get a Kobo Libra 2 as you can make the font size larger for the interface and series & collections are very easily managed with Calibre.

I'm not sure why they keep making certain text smaller without a way to enlarge for those with vision issues. They've done this a few updates.

In other threads it has been speculated that they don't do any reading on kindles themselves.

It’s awful. I read on a Kobo now. My Kindle is practically useless.
