New home screen

I have heard, that there is a new home screen in Kobo devices. Has anyone got some images of this screen? Is this screen more useful than the old one?

More useful? No, the functionality is way down, unless your idea of functionality is a whole lot of storefront and no customisability. (Which, hey, it may well be. No judgement.)

The new home screen is useless (IMHO). It is less functional and that is not an opinion.

On the plus side for the new home screen, Search now takes up less of the screen and the Home button has been replaced with something far more useful.

Unfortunately, everything else about the experience is worse.
