Kindle App Mod for EInk device(tested on Boox Leaf2)

[x01673]

Hi,

I have made several modifications to the latest Kindle Android app (version 8.85.0.100, build 1.3.296551.0).

The main changes:

• Change the backgroud to pure white. [white mode]
• Redesigned the infocard layout for a simpler and cleaner look.
• Disabled smooth scrolling in various sections of the app, including info cards, the store page, settings, contents, and more.
• Enabled page turning using hardware keys as the default option(volumn key is also supported), specifically optimized for Boox Leaf2 devices.
• Enhanced the functionality of WorkWise and Dictionary infocards, allowing to scroll up and down by tapping on the left and right sides.
• Only keep one hightlight color.
• etc.

I tried this on my Likebook Mars, and got the message "problem parsing the package". Must be incompatible with my android version which is 8.1.0. Any thoughts? Thanks.

The stock Kindle App from Playstore works on Mars with Android 8.1.0

Is this actually legal to link to given it's a copyright app?

Or is it even safe, given that the person sharing has only that post?

I'd not test it as I don't trust Google's scanner to spot stuff.

Edit:
This is the proper link and it works on any Android it installs on. https://play.google.com/store/apps/d....amazon.kindle
