Thank you for your answer. Large print mode does the trick for the dictionary but it also makes everything look bigger (menus, etc). In a different thread someone told me a patch to fix it but I thought I might mention it here in case a kobo developer sees it. Regarding brightness, you might be right, but if someone has the knowledge to test it, it would be great to know for sure. I really dont see a point to having a (too) bright light to read when is dark, it is almost like reading from a mobile phone. |

Individual devices might go lower, but, it probably won't be possible to get consistent results. |

Since I last tested this last year, I can’t recall if the books in question were sideloaded or not. You two have given me something to do over the weekend! 😄 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

Great points. As for Apple, they charge a minimal 99¢ for the most basic cloud syncing above their free service. Nintendo charges $20 or so for the year for cloud access on the Switch. I would pay extra if Kobo needed the capital to implement better syncing, but they already offer bookmark syncing. Adding support for notes and highlights is digital peanuts. It’s text and coordinate markers. We’re not talking about hosting home movies. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro |

I think this is related to something davidfor has said before: you pay extra but... how many people would pay that extra so it's interesting for Kobo (being peanuts or watermelons...)?

When asking the question if I want to mark some books as unread: don't make them recent if I say yes (or no).

For Kobo Forma:
* Clock display at footer or header * Go to page * Good contrast |

* Dedicated Wikipedia app (wiki in browser is readable but not ideal--I've been spoiled by the amazing Android Wikipedia app)
* RSS reader * An official method for pushing books to the Kobo wirelessly. Even if it was just pressing a button to open the FTP port on the Kobo and letting me quickly transfer stuff over, that would be better than nothing. |

Use the tag "author sort" for sorting by author (or let us know the name of the (additional) tag you use), and do a straight sort (no interpretation of the sort tag). Also use a series sort tag.

Make a tap at the bottom of a page bring up the menu (if that is what is chosen in settings.)
