Kobo

Does anyone have the Kobo e-Reader or the Kobo app on their phone?

If you answered yes to either question ... is there a way to mark a book "read"?

When you get to the very last page of the book, including the ones that list other books by that author, and including any blank pages, a little ribbon will appear that says "Tap to close this book." Then a message will pop up that says, "Congratulations, you've finished this book! Would you like to mark it as closed? Doing so will remove it from your I'm Reading list, but the item will remain in your library will all your annotations saved." Tap "yes" and the book will be closed. If you have a book in your library that you've finished but that isn't marked as closed, open it and slide the scroll bar thingy all the way to the last couple of pages and then turn those pages till you get to the very end, and you should see the ribbon that says "Tap to close this book."

Hmm. I don't have that option on my app. Maybe it's only a paid thing? Thank you for the help, though.

Hm, that's interesting. I have the free Kobo app on my iPod Touch and that is what it did for me. I just went through a book from beginning to end to make sure it worked. I'm sorry it didn't work for you. :-(

I'll check another book but the one I looked at the last page was the "copyright" page and there's nothing after that and no ribbons. :/

So, I updated the app and well, it all works now. Again, thank you.

Yay! Glad it works now.
