Which e-reader best for invert/night mode?

melmurray · 07-04-2019, 06:06 AM

Hi I have a visual problem that’s getting worse. I’m finding it hard to use my Kobo for any length of time even with the comfort light on. What’s working best is my iPad on invert mode. Black background and white text. Does any have a recommendation for an e-reader that has that option? Something not too expensive would be good!

There is an inverted mode on the Kobo devices. It isn't an official way, but is in recent firmware versions. It can be enabled by add a line in the config file. There are also other ways to do this. There is plenty of discussion on it in the Kobo forum.

And from my understanding, the Kindle Oasis has an inverted mode. I don't know if that has found its way to the other devices.

Thank you for that. I’ll check it out. I’m not that good technically so fingers crossed. Apart from oasis do any other kindles have an inverted mode?

The newest Paperwhite has the option also.
