Caveats
- X3 only. It needs the X3's clock. Turn on reading stats and make sure the date and time are right.
- Page numbers use CrossInk's stable page numbers, so run your EPUBs through the CrossInk EPUB Optimizer. Without it the page count stays blank.
- USB-locked device? USB flashing won't work. Download the
.binfrom the release and use Settings → System → SD Card Firmware Update (needs CrossInk installed first). - Minutes read count from install onward. Labels are English only.
- Unofficial fork of CrossInk, so please don't report issues to the CrossInk developers. To go back, change the sleep screen first, then install official CrossInk from Inky.
