Version 2.0.0: Hello Sol readers,
Remember your Kindle library? Don't you wish you didn't have to leave it behind when you switched to Sol? Starting today, you can now read your Kindle books directly on your Sol Reader glasses.
To get started, open this app on your iPhone or iPad and navigate to Library > Kindle > Connect. Once you've authenticated the Kindle app through the Sol app, you can pick which books from your Kindle library you'd like to see on your Sol Reader glasses. Once you choose, sync your glasses and your Kindle books will be available for reading.
This is an experimental feature with the expectation that not everything will work perfectly at first, but know that if you report anything amiss to us, it's likely we'll be able to fix it without you having to upgrade anything on your glasses or your phone.
It's also important to note that not every Kindle feature is available just yet. Images, highlights (both your own and popular highlights), annotations, and other niceties are not yet built out on the Sol Reader. But if you want a feature from your Kindle to be available on your Sol Reader glasses, let us know in the Discord or shoot us an email (hello@solreader.com). Know that we absolutely love hearing your feedback, positive and negative. Every signal we can get from you is a chance for us to build a better product.
Thank you for reading on Sol Reader! We're focused on making the best reading experience possible and we're excited to hear what you all think of this new feature.
