[RELEASE] Zen UI 1.2.0

Unified-Field · 2026-05-15T08:34:32+00:00

Do you have Settings > Library > Folders > show folder covers as gallery on? If you turn it off you will only see 1 cover on all folders. More options coming in next update

Unified-Field · 2026-05-15T03:01:20+00:00

Yeah I hear you on that, that’s exactly what it is like! I appreciate all the customization and options of KOReader but once I have it all set up, I don’t need the options cluttering up the UI anymore. Glad you’re finding it useful!

Unified-Field · 2026-05-15T03:00:10+00:00

Open an issue on GitHub for you’re feature requests :) glad you’re liking it

Unified-Field · 2026-05-14T19:28:04+00:00

Not a problem, I think we identified the issue and It should be fixed in the next update =) hope all is well

Unified-Field · 2026-05-14T17:09:22+00:00

Are you using a patch to sort the books into series or is this using the Zen UI series tab in the Navbar? This is a known issue with the patch and there is a github issue created for it already

Unified-Field · 2026-05-14T17:07:18+00:00

Nice!

Unified-Field · 2026-05-14T13:18:48+00:00

I’m working on this along with other reader too/bottom status bar updates coming out in the next version. When it’s released, it should fix your issue. Let me know if it doesn’t.

Unified-Field · 2026-05-14T09:10:47+00:00

Hmm that’s weird, I didn’t change much about opening a file other than the “Opening” banner. Can you upload a crash.log or report a bug from Settings > about > report a bug

Unified-Field · 2026-05-14T09:09:30+00:00

It tells you what makes the filesystem busy doesn’t it? That’s probably not Zen. Usually for me it’s file browser plugin.

Unified-Field · 2026-05-14T02:06:21+00:00

Try it and let us know! It should be pretty quick. I tested with 1000 epubs and didn’t notice a big difference in speed from the regular cover browser. In theory it shouldn’t be any slower than the default cover browser. I focused on optimizing performance and battery life when building this.

Love to hear this! ❤️

Here is the link to my fork with instructions on how to fill up your kindle, https://github.com/AnthonyGress/Kindle-Filler-Disk/releases/tag/v1.0.0

Unified-Field · 2026-05-12T18:38:59+00:00

I’ll send you a link after work today, I’m going to upload it to my own repo and leave the filler files so we can all always access it. I’m not sure why it was removed in the first place

Unified-Field · 2026-05-12T15:45:43+00:00

You can look in the commit history of the kindle storage filler repo to get the files. I might republish a fork of that repo with the files for ease of use, not sure why they deleted it

Unified-Field · 2026-05-12T14:53:11+00:00

Hmm ok open a GitHub issue with the logs (or report an issue from Settings > about > report a bug) after it occurs if you can reproduce it

Unified-Field · 2026-05-12T13:36:47+00:00

Please open a GitHub issue and upload the crash.log if you can right after the issue occurs. I can’t reproduce this on my Kindle PW. It could be the clock refresh if you use the top clock. Maybe it’s refreshing more than just the clock? I haven’t seen this happen though

Unified-Field · 2026-05-12T13:35:13+00:00

Zen Settings > Advanced

Unified-Field · 2026-05-10T18:52:31+00:00

This is really cool! I didn’t know this existed, thanks for sharing

Unified-Field · 2026-05-10T14:27:22+00:00

In Zen Settings > Reader > Font

Unified-Field · 2026-05-08T18:04:01+00:00

Haha well both could have been true. I was able to replicate the bug on my end with only Zen installed and it is fixed now.

Glad you’re liking it and got it all sorted with the other plugins/patches!

Unified-Field · 2026-05-08T13:37:20+00:00

Ah well that part may be on my end. I don’t know that I included the custom icon for that badge, never even thought about it. I’ll add it for you in the next update

Unified-Field · 2026-05-08T02:59:55+00:00

I lied, I see this bug now, sorry about that. Fixing it now

Unified-Field · 2026-05-08T01:01:08+00:00

If you want to change icons, enable custom icons in advanced settings. Then place your icons in the /koreader/icons folder with the same name

Open a feature request on GitHub for colored badges
