BookLover award

I was just looking through the awards that I've accumulated on my kobo touch when I noticed that i haven't yet received the booklover award even though I've signed in and out of my account several times. Is there anything I'm missing?

You're logging into your account to get the award and love is selfless... Kobo isn't fooled that easily.

lol I blame them for tempting me with awards in the first place :P. Anyway, I still can't seem to get it to work. It says right under the account settings on my kobo touch that I'm signed in. Anyone else having this issue? Not a big deal, but I'd like to get it figured out.

I don't have it either--and I have read every night, often during the day, and have completed +10 books. What can I say--it has gone missing. In case you think I do nothing but read, some of this reading was done before the Touch, on a Kobo app for Android.

some of them do seem a bit buggy.. dictionary seems to be stuck at 90% for me. I tried to and booklover award didn't unlock when I wirelessly logged into the store and picked up a book...meh. I still want expanded stats more than anything

Good to know that I'm not the only one with the issue . We'll just have to wait til kobo fixes it up a bit. I agree with the expanded stats bit; that would be great.
Thanks for the replies

Same problem here. I suspect the BookLover award is triggered by the initial sign in if done on the device itself. Since the recommended procedure was to set up your KT via the desktop app from kobosetup.com it's not being triggered.

it's been confirmed by kobo that there is a bug with booklovers and it's being looked into for a future update.

Thanks.


And on another note, anyone else having trouble with/not getting the I <3 My Library award? I've added several new books (purchased from Kobo) since purchasing the touch, and I have yet to "win" this award.

What's the secret?

I don't know what the secret is but I got the award after doing a factory reset and then downloading my Kobo books via Wi-Fi.

Same here - but sadly all my other awards are now missing. Looks like I'll just need to do a whole lot more reading.

I have also noticed that some are a bit buggy, but not a big deal. I just wish the reading stats did not reset with a device reset. Was hoping it kept all that online.

Heee, even though I actually bought some ereaders, I'm still a dinosaur. No cell phone, iPhone, iPad, Blackberry, laptop, nor any of that other newfangled stuff.

So I doubt I'll be doing the WiFi thing.

I have only the Kobo Android app, and I got "I <3 My Library" simply from downloading books in the app, and still have it. So if there is a bug it is most likely limited to the Touch.

(Which makes sense. Newer product = More bug potential.)
