Same! I’d love to not need to clip my page turners to my Kindle! They wouldn’t even need to make themselves. They could have Anker do it for them or some other partner do it for them. Then we could have a page back button that works. I’m so sick of hearing about not being able to page back.

I don’t think it’s lazy at all. It’s efficient. Why hold a device when you don’t have to?

I’m extremely nearsighted and I still read with a page turner. The trick is to use a stand that holds the Kindle close to your face. As long as my Kindle is close I can read on size 1. When it’s sitting farther away, because I’m eating, I read on size 5. I turned 40 in September and I got a boost in the lower part of my lenses that makes text more sharp. Old people glasses are awesome!
