Instead of all the add junk for books I have no interest in, or have already read, it could show more recently opened books (I think the Kids edition does this) or the "reading" and "to read" lists from Goodreads. If Amazon can display an add banner on the screen, there is no reason why they can't display device owner information in a similar way.Īs far as the Home Screen, yes you can turn it off, but it would be better if it could be customized. As I always use a passcode, that would be the only place someone would be able to see my contact information. You could put contact information there, but nobody is going to find it.īefore the current book cover screen saver feature was implemented, I used the screen saver hack to display custom screens savers that had my contact info along the top or bottom. There is a Personal Info thing you can type in, but I don’t know where that would show up or why it is there. What might work is to have some option when you have set a passcode to have a message of your choice when the passcode entry form is up ‘if found contact xxxx’. Kindle’s are not always connected devices so there’s generally not going to be a way to push a message to them when they’re lost where you can usually do that with a smartphone. How would the screen saver know you cannot find the Kindle in order to display such a message? And I at least would not want that to be the default screen saver.
