The tutorials
Screens explain themselves the first time; here's how to see it all again.
The first time you open some screens, Kevra highlights their buttons one by one and explains what each one does in a small bubble.
Where there's a tutorial
- Home: the three tabs at the bottom (Home, Library and Community) and what each one shows.
- Library: Add a book, Want to read and Your reading (a count of that library).
- Community: your profile, its sections, Alerts and Find people.
- The reader: how to turn pages (depending on the mode you use: pages, slide or scroll) and how to open the reader menu.
How it works
- Next moves to the next tip; Got it closes the last one.
- Skip closes the tutorial for that screen.
- You can also tap anywhere on the screen to move on.
A tutorial counts as seen as soon as it starts: if you close it halfway, it won't pop up again every time you visit.
See them again
- Tap your photo in the top right corner to open Settings.
- Tap See the tutorials again.
- You'll see "Done: every screen will explain itself again." From then on, each screen explains itself again the next time you open it.
Common questions
A new bubble appeared on a screen I already knew. When we add something to a screen, we show you just that new tip, not the whole tutorial.
There's a tip I never see. Some only show where they make sense. For example, the bookshop price tip only appears if you've said you live in Spain. And if a button isn't on screen at that moment, its tip waits until it appears.
On my ereader the tutorial has no animations. That's on purpose: on e-ink, animations leave ghosting on the screen.
