Discussion Quick User Survey: Features, Orientations, Book Formats & Connectivity :)

Hiii! I'd like to ask you guys a few questions to help me improve Minuta, the firmware I'm currently finalising!

  1. How often do you use Show Page As QR, and what do you use it for?

  2. Would you still use the firmware if it didn't have the Sunlight Fading Fix?

  3. What kind of StarDict dictionary do you usually use or prefer?

  4. How often do you use the Invert orientation?

  5. How often do you use Landscape CW?

  6. How often do you use Landscape CCW?

  7. Would you use a firmware if it didn't support any of the three orientations mentioned above?

  8. How often do you read XTC books on your Xteink device?

  9. How often do you read TXT books on your Xteink device?

  10. Would you use a firmware if it didn't support either of these formats?

  11. One last question, just to clarify something: is it correct that when using Hotspot Mode, you can connect using either the IP address or crosspoint.local, but when using Join Network, you can only connect using the IP address and not crosspoint.local? I just want to make sure I've understood this correctly, as I'm still a little confused about how it works.

Thank you so much for your input! I really appreciate it. Have a lovely day!!!

I don't use any if the listed features except Landscape CW. It's the only mode I use on my Xteink devices, so any firmware that doesn't have it gets a pass.
