Thank you so much for posting this. I was so angry that I couldn’t find my last bookmark. This worked perfectly. Thanks!

I have had the same experience. It is very frustrating. Sometimes I can’t even make a bookmark because when I tap the screen, nothing comes up.

i keep following directions but it doesn’t work the way the instructions describe.

I bookmark a page on a novel but when I go back a try to find it I have to flip through the entire ebook. Is there an easier way to find my bookmark?
