Latest Kindle update revamps the homescreen for easier discovery
Naturally makes it simpler to give Amazon your cash, too
Keep a Kindle on your bedside table for late-night reading? It’s about to get an update that will make picking that next can’t-put-down page turner a lot easier.
Amazon just announced a February update for the 2014 Kindle, Kindle Voyage and Kindle Paperwhite (both the 2013 original and 2015 update) that will completely overhaul the home screen.
It’ll add shortcuts for books on your wishlist and reading lists from Goodreads, as well as downloaded samples. Tap in your favourite genres or rate some specific books and Amazon will tweak its suggestions too.
Basically, it’s everything you’d need to hand over more cash to Amazon for ebooks.
New quick toggle settings will make it easier to switch your Kindle into airplane mode, or sync to the cloud, just by tapping the top toolbar.
