The 5.10.1.1 firmware update is available for Kindle eReaders

Not long after Amazon releases its all-new Kindle Paperwhite 4, it also reveals the latest firmware update today. This update should automatically download and install to your Kindle when connected wirelessly; however, you can also manually download the software and transfer the update to your device via USB cable.

Here’s what’s new for the 5.10.1.1 update:
·         Swipe-able Home: Swipe up on your home screen to see additional tips, recommendations, and more based on your reading habits.
·         Easily personalize your reading: Now save multiple reading settings, selecting the font, boldness level, and orientation settings you prefer all from the main menu and quickly switch between those settings.
·         Return borrowed books: You can return Kindle Owners’ Lending Library books from within your library by long pressing on a borrowed book and selecting return.
·         Battery percentage: The percent of battery remaining is shown.
·         Labels for the standard toolbar: Labels are added under each icon on the standard toolbar for improved navigation.
·         Performance improvements and other general enhancements.


Here’s how to manually download and install a software update.
