Hi Cheryl and Woody. This is a content specific issue that I've also found. Cheryl: you hit the nail on the head in that foot notes can indeed cause this to happen. I've also noticed it happens with some content that also contains pictures or diagrams of some sort on the same page. I don't know of

Well, that's interesting. I'm using a Focus 40 Blue Classic. Does anyone know if this bug is confined to the Focus displays? I know there's a lot of uniformity among the various display drivers. I would expect that this is not a display specific issue, but I am curious nonetheless. I'll turn

Hi, I can confirm that turning off auto panning does not eliminate the behavior. What it does do is safeguard against you scrolling to the next page as you're looking for your place. 4,5,6-chord doesn't work in the Kindle app, so I have to pan display length by display length to find my place.

Haven't really been paying attention to this thread. I experienced the same behavior this morning when reading a book in iBooks, where I read a whole page and then my Focus 14 Blue jumped back to the top of the same page and started reading again. I wonder if turning off auto page turn/scrolling

Hi Cheryl, I'm not seeing this behavior in the Kindle app. Have you tried removing the Kindle app from the app switcher and restarting it, and restarting your phone? Best, Anna > On Jan 26, 2016, at 11:01 PM, Cheryl Lenartiene > wrote: > > Hi all, > I

Hi Anna, Yes, I have. I've actually been seeing this behavior for a little while, at least ever since 9.2.1 was in public Beta. But I've made purchases at the same time, so I can't say whether something was introduced into iOS, or whether the the behavior is content specific. I mostly read

Hi all, I apologize if this has been discussed before, but I'm hoping there is a solution. When I read Kindle books with my Braille display, as I near the end of the page, the display cuts off in the middle of a word, and when I pan to the right, I'm taken back to the top of the page. When I

Hi Rebecca, When you get to the page chooser in iBooks, pan left once. Then the Space with O command will work just fine. Some braille displays have keys that do the same thing as Space with O. For instance, the right rocker switch on the front of the Focus 40 moves you to the next page when
