kindle scribe gets a new update and now talks to

Without a doubt one of the best electronic books that exist is the Kindle Scribe. Its excellent 10.2-inch screen and the possibility of using a stylus to make notes (and create notebooks) make it unique and a great option for those looking for something more in a device of this type. Well, the product already has a update that offers novelties that are quite interesting.

The new firmware we are talking about can be safely installed once is downloaded from the internet (using for this the WiFi connectivity that includes the Kindle we are talking about). The process is completely safe and, in the event that you do not get the corresponding notification when using the eReader, you can enter the Configuration section and carry out the pertinent verification. Of course, we recommend that you have at least half the battery full so that you do not have problems of any kind.

Word, the big news that comes to Kindle Scribe

This is due to a collaboration of the Redmond company with Amazon. The new tool is called Send to Kindle from Microsoft Word. Basically, what is added now in the electronic book is the possibility of receive documents created with the word processor we are talking about (in .doc and .docx formats). In this way, you can make the relevant revisions of something that has been created. A great addition, since the Send to Kindle function is widely used by users.

To be able to use this novelty, it is necessary to have a Microsoft 365 subscription active and, for the moment, it can be used in the version for Windows of Microsoft software (but it has been confirmed that support for web and macOS will be added soon). Thanks to the stylus, being able to add notes or highlight elements will be completely possible from the Kindle Scribe.

Other new features coming to the eReader

there are others three important improvements, apart from the usual fixes that are present in all the updates that Amazon releases. They are the following:

  • Reader optimization and annotations in PDF files: from now on the use of this type of files with the electronic book is significantly improved. To this end, greater contrast control is added and, also, the legibility of the document in question is optimized.
  • Pages to two columns horizontally: When reading a book you can now choose to view it in one or two columns, which is a good thing, since it allows for more adjustments and customization. This option is within the Aa menu of the Kindle Scribe operating system.

  • Improved notebook overview: now these elements can show up to new pages here and, in addition, it is possible to add new ones and even delete some that you select. Therefore, the options are much greater.
