Latest Kobo Software Update Fails to Fix Pocket Login Issues

August 31, 2023 by Nathan Groezinger 6 Comments

Kobo Libra 2 with Cover

Kobo released another software update for all Kobo ereaders earlier this week, version 4.38.21908. But now it looks like the update has been pulled because it doesn’t fix the problem it was supposed to fix. Judging by the release notes, the primary purpose of the update was to provide a fix for logging into Pocket […]

Kobo eReaders Size Comparison (Video)

Kobo eReaders Size Comparison

Below is a YouTube video showing the current lineup of Kobo ereaders next to each other to help get an idea of the size differences between them. It’s often hard to get an idea of the size of products when shopping online based on pictures alone, and since Kobo’s ereaders aren’t available to see in […]

Will Kobo Release Any New eReaders This Fall?

New Kobo 2023

When it comes to dedicated reading devices, new models often get released in the fall before the busy holiday shopping season. Could Kobo be preparing to announce a new Kobo ereader soon? Kobo often releases new models at the same time that Amazon releases new Kindles. I think it’s part of their strategy to get […]

Kobo Needs to Release a New Entry-Level eReader

August 2, 2023 by Nathan Groezinger 6 Comments

Kobo Nia Needs to Go

Looking over Kobo’s current lineup of ereaders, most of them are still relatively new. They released the 6-inch Kobo Clara 2E last fall, and the 10.3-inch Kobo Elipsa 2E earlier this year. The Kobo Sage and Kobo Libra 2 were both released in October of 2021. There’s a chance Kobo could replace them, perhaps with […]

How to Use Custom Screensavers on Kobo eReaders

July 25, 2023 by Nathan Groezinger 1 Comment

Kobo Custom Screensavers

I came across a post on reddit yesterday with directions on how to set custom images on the screen when Kobo ereaders are turned off or sleeping, and it’s really easy to set up. Apparently the newer software on Kobos has an option to use custom screensavers but the feature is not being advertised. This […]

Why Don’t eBook Readers Have Reading Timers?

July 14, 2023 by Nathan Groezinger 15 Comments

Kobo Clara HD

Wouldn’t it be nice if you could enter a time on your ebook reader when sitting down to read, say like 30 minutes, and then a popup notifies you when the time runs out? One thing I don’t like to do while reading is keeping an eye on the clock. It takes me out of […]

Kobo eReaders Losing Pocket Support in July (Apparently Not)

June 29, 2023 by Nathan Groezinger 8 Comments

Kobo Losing Pocket Support

If you use Pocket to read web articles on your Kobo ereader, you’re going to have to find another option starting the second week of July. Update: Now they’ve backtracked and it looks like Kobos won’t lose Pocket support (see update below). Pocket has announced plans to migrate accounts to Firefox so moving forward Pocket […]

New Kobo Software Update Released – Major Notetaking Update

June 23, 2023 by Nathan Groezinger 6 Comments

Kobo Sage Update

Kobo has released a new firmware update for their line of ereaders, version 4.37.21533. For most Kobo models it’s a fairly minor update, but for the notetaking models, including the Kobo Sage and Kobo Elipsa, it’s a pretty big update that adds a lot of new features. This is the first update that Kobo has […]
