I see no options for this in the menu. But you can revert backward and forward as it is also possible on the first Oasis.
You can totally ignore the buttons, if you want, without accidentally pressing them. In my opinion they don't interfere while swiping or tapping. |

It looks like the firmware shipped with the new Oasis predates the latest firmware for other models, which makes sense given the time required to manufacture the devices. There is supposed to be an other-the-air update available at release. Perhaps they haven't released that because they didn't expect customers to have the device until next week.
I believe that it is supposed by be in Settings under Accessibility options. |

If you look at the device page on Amazon, though, in the blue box describing Audible support it says "Available via a free over-the-air update.", which seems a lot vaguer to me. Oh well, I'm sure it'll appear in the not too distant future.

Have you checked it in a dark room? Because with pw and voyage even if you turn off front light completely there is still glimmer light that can be seen in darkness.
I asking that because it is very important to me to turn off light completely. I can still cancel my order if there is no possibility to do that. Last edited by Lepricon; 10-28-2017 at 05:30 PM. |
