When were reading time estimates removed from Pocket articles? I've upgraded from 4.15 to latest and don't see them anymore. They were really useful in choosing at a glance which article to read given time available.

With this update. I miss them too. I've been looking at the app on my phone for the time and then reading on my Kobo.

I really like this patch, but it seems there's something a bit messed up. If I try to switch off the footer(after patching it's book-progress) in the reading-settings, the chapter-progress disappears. Vice versa it's the same if you try to switch of the header.

yes, that's a known issue, Geek has stated that he suspects he knows the cause and the corrected (hopefully) version will be in the next release of patches after he's taken his break from dealing with patches. Which is roughly a week/whenever he feels like it.

Just to clarify, this is a firmware bug, not a patch bug, but I might be able to fix it in a separate patch next week.

Is anyone else experiencing, when using search, only four titles per page? When there is clearly room for more. I find it irritating. I didn't see anything in the patch to address this.

I'm seeing 5 on the Clara HD and Libra H2O. There isn't any space left. You will get less if you have the large print mode enabled.

You are hacking the firmware to change the location of information and when it doesn't work, it is a firmware bug?????

Just checked on a Forma and a Clara HD and both show 5 titles per page.

To be clear, the incident I describe only happens when using "search" and is on my first gen H2O. On the library page there are five titles. I do have the patch "increase cover size in library" enabled, so I will disable it and see if it makes a difference to the titles in the "search" screen (although to my eyes, the covers appear to be the same size in search and library).

ETA - no change. 5 books in library page, 4 in search page.

Hi see the same behavior on my first gen H2O with just 4 books showing per page when doing a search. On all of my other devices I get 5 books per page when doing a search.

How do you get the battery left as a percent while reading? It used to be reading menu, tap on battery icon.

Looks like you cannot. Unsure if this is a bug or by design because the icon is above the toolbar rather than on the toolbar like on the home screen. Tapping the battery icon on the home screen brings up the battery percentage panel.
