V1 scribe not updating…
Morning all,
I have noticed today that my Scribe is still on 5.17.1.something rather than the 5.17.2 that the Amazon site lists as current…any ideas why it insists that the previous version is the most up to date? Ta muchly. Piggly PS: my previous Kindle stopped updating at some point and I had to do them all manually but I have no idea why… Last edited by WigglePig; 12-24-2024 at 12:10 PM. |

I used to but only because the auto updates stopped working.

They don't push updates to every device immediately. They spread them out and it might take a month or so. If you want the newest then manual is the best way. You also won't be surprised with a random reboot out of the blue when they do finally get around to your device.

Well it still hadn’t happened so I pushed it manually yesterday and all works well so far. I’m not sure of any new features so will continue to experiment!

I find the updates are slow. Not everyone gets the update at the same time. They spread it over a period of time so as not to tax the servers. Also I believe you need to keep it plugged in for updates to occur. For these reason, I update manually always. As for features, did you get the new sticky note for books? That is the last feature I’ve seen so far. Version 5.17.2 – December 2024 Here's what's new: Annotation Features in Books: You can now create richer annotations in eBooks with enhanced typesetting and Word documents. Draw highlights and underlines that automatically snap to neatened annotations, or create a canvas by writing on the page or inserting one from the writing toolbar. AI Notebook Tools: You can now recap your notes with the new notebook summarization feature, or refine your writing, converting your handwritten words into a script font for a more elegant look. Performance improvements, bug fixes, and other general enhancements. Version 5.17.1.0.1 – October 2024 General Improvement: The "Whispersync for Books and Notebooks" setting within Device Options is now simply called "Sync". There is no change to the underlying synchronization functionality. Performance improvements, bug fixes, and other general enhancements. Last edited by solitarywolf; 12-28-2024 at 12:14 PM. |

FWIW, the AI Notebooks tools will only show up if your Amazon account is a US one.
