I never got accustomed to reading book on my iPhone It never felt quite right despite (or maybe because of) the skeuomorphism attempt.
Am I the only one thinking the new animation actually looks better? The page seem to quickly fade away with less distractions and might enable to focus more on the text flow.
If anything knowing the interface evolved is actually encouraging me to give it another go.
- yamtaddle 4y agoThe old animation was a must-have for those of us who fiddle with edges of pages when reading physical books. Only method of ebook reading I've seen that satisfied that particular I-suspect-uncommon-but-not-rare book-reading behavior. Not the same as running a finger over the corner of the whole block of pages, but close enough.
