The upstairs tablet is an ancient beast (eight years old! Methuselah!) so no surprise when it wouldn't load Kobo. But it was last updated in '21 when it had conniptions and had to be restored to factory settings, so I DLed the newest version. And of course, as ever, the icons are too big and things are Not What I'm Used To and cat-nature me is disgruntled. And now it transpires that it won't charge past 72%. The old one would stop at 85 but I could get it bumped up to 100 usually. This one is adamant that 72% is all I'm getting. Oh, and it still won't take Kobo and it still won't let me add an input language to default American English.
OTOH it *will* finally give me word suggestions as I type. When I bought it the clerk said Samsung was feuding with some company so predictive text was unavailable. For all I know he was on crack and the feature's always been available, only I didn't know to look for it because it's squirreled away in a nonintuitive place. But anyway it's here now and will correct my typos for me unless they start with the wrong letter. Shall note that my phone doesn't have that tic, but phones are useless for typing on and I'm amazed that anyone can.
Hoped to get out today when the rain stopped but sullen clouds loured unmoving all afternoon, making it dark at 4, and nothing dried up. Maybe tomorrow before Sunday's forecast snow moan groan tremble.
