Kobo app page turning animation??

I just upgraded my cellphone from an android from 2 years ago to a LG973 android...I had kobo on my old one and read books on it and it had a nice page turning animation where you could actually turn a virtual page. I installed kobo on my new phone and now the pages don't have a turning animation, it just goes from one to the other. I can't find any settings that make the page animation behave as it did. What's going on? How come it has page turning animation on one phone and not the other? Isn't it the same app?? Very confused. Is there a different reader which has the page turning animation I'm looking for? It may seem like an insignificant thing but it's a feature I happen to like very much as the closer to an actual book it feels, the better. Now it just feels too much like I'm reading off a computer screen. Any help would be much appreciated.

I was wondering the same thing. I only started using kobo's android app recently, so I've never seen the page turn animation. I don't think it's the new phone, they probably got rid of it in an update for whatever reason.

I could be wrong, but I wasn't aware that the Android app has ever had a page turn animation.
