Overview
- Amazon, which announced the update Tuesday, said the features will roll out worldwide over the coming weeks with a manual download available for those who do not see it yet.
- Dark mode now extends across the full interface on Kindle Colorsoft and Scribe Colorsoft, and users can choose specific areas like Home, Library, or Reading from the Quick Actions menu.
- Kindle Scribe Colorsoft gains Smart Shapes in notebooks, adding toolbar options for lines, arrows, circles, triangles, and rectangles.
- A hold-to-snap tool cleans up freehand shapes into neat geometric forms, helping notes and diagrams look tidy without extra editing.
- Colors in highlights and Scribe notebooks remain unchanged in dark mode, solving earlier complaints that color Kindles inverted book pages but left bright menus that disrupted night reading.
