Amazon is rolling out a software update in the coming weeks that's meant to improve the experience on its Kindle, Oasis, and Paperwhite devices. You will be able to swipe down from the screen to adjust brightness, go to All Settings, and toggle Airplane, Sync, and Bluetooth modes. There will be a new bottom navigation bar that will let you switch easily between Home, Library, and the book you're currently reading. These changes are coming to 8th-generation Kindles or later, 7th-generation or newer Paperwhites, and the Oasis series.
Later this year, Amazon plans to offer "an improved Home and Library experience." The Library will get "new filter and sort menus, a new collections view and an interactive scroll bar." Meanwhile, the Home portal will get a Recently Read section that shows up to 20 items.
