The official account will probably share the press release here so here’s the news from Good E-Reader: https://goodereader.com/blog/electronic-readers/the-pocketbook-era-lite-is-a-new-e-reader-coming-out-soon
Hey, I have a Pocketbook Verse Pro and am looking for a bluetooth remote to use as a page turner. I would prefer one that connects directly to the device via bluetooth - not one that comes in two parts where one has to be clipped onto the Pocketbook itself. I have heard that some remotes might work better than others and was wondering what remotes some of you use? Which work most seamlessly with Pocketbook?
This is my PocketBook Touch HD3 I have since 2019, have managed to install Koreader on it with plugins and today I managed to make a custom lockscreen image thx to this guide reddit.com/r/pocketbook/comments/1qkutiw/custom_sleep_screenlogo_on_any_pocketbook/ - these mods made me love it again pretty much I was thinking about upgrading but not anymore :) - If anyone has suggestions what should I do to it next feel free to comment.
My god the music is so crunchy. Was using the same skull candy earbuds I use in my physical player and there were miles of distance in quality even with the cheap random player I bought off ebay. I've listened to audiobooks on my PB and those were okay, but anything with a bass or a drum beat isn't good on it. Anyway thought I would share in case anyone else wanted to use their Touch HD 3 for a music player. Would have been nice to carry one less thing, but maybe someday I'll find an affordable epaper device I can use as an ereader, mp3 player, and a writerdeck.
(interestingly, my MP3 player CAN read books, but it's on a tiny LED screen which defeats one of the purposes of why I wanted an ereader)
i currently have an android ereader and kinda want to get a pocketbook instead, but i'm used to having userscripts to make some things easier, so i'm curious if the pocketbook browser supports userscripts or at least bookmarklets? i know its javascript support isn't great but i don't need all the newest stuff so that's not a concern.
edit: yeah looks like they're not, i'll just look into other ways to achieve my goals then
Hi everyone,
Does anyone know if Pocketbook devices ever receive major OS version upgrades during their lifespan?
I’ve noticed that there are two Pocketbook Note models with Android—one running Android 11 and the other Android 12.
I’m considering Android because I want to use eReolen, the local library app, which requires at least Android 11. However, I’m a bit concerned about the app’s longevity if it updates and starts requiring Android 12 or 13 in the future.
Also, is it a bad idea to buy a "Note" device if I only want to read? It seems like Android is only available on the Note models.
Many PocketBook eReaders are able to open ACSM files without needing Adobe Digital Editions on another device. When the device is set up correctly, you can simply open an ACSM file and the eReader will use it to download the actual ebook over WiFi.
To check whether your device is configured for this, open Settings and go to the Accounts section. Look for an entry such as “Adobe DRM – [your name] (PocketBook Cloud)”.
If that account is present, the ACSM file will trigger the download automatically. Once the book has been retrieved, you can put the eReader offline again if you prefer.
Note: I have only tested this on my own PocketBook Inkpad 4.
