Kindle scribe: do specific parts of the touchscreen skip by more than one page,

Pw23 · Today, 08:41 AM

So I bought a Amazon Kindle scribe eight days ago and I've been using it every day four hours but I've noticed that when I tried to skip a page on random occasions it jumps by like 20 to 50 pages so I'm wondering whether the touching has certain portion of the screen makes it jump by more pages than one?

I’m not aware of such a “feature”, and mine doesn’t do that; is your Scribe on the latest version of the software? Mine is on 5.16.9, so if yours is on a more recent version it could be a bug introduced recently; otherwise I wouldn’t rule out a hardware issue.

FWIW, my PW3 with firmware 5.13.3 also does this. It is very occasional and I can't reproduce consistently. Quite annoying when it happens.
