3 new features to try out on your Kindle Scribe

The Pen was already a great way to write or draw on this Kindle, but new brush types are making using the Pen even better. The Kindle Scribe is now getting new fountain pen, marker, and pencil brush options, ensuring that you can get the perfect brush type for the task at hand.

Not only are there three new brush types, but each of those gets five thickness options—helping make using the included Pen even more versatile. The fountain pen type means you can create stunning calligraphy. With the marker, better highlight text. And, with the pencil, you can create natural-looking sketches right from your Kindle Scribe. All writing tools now feature enhanced pressure and tilt capabilities as well, providing more precision in your writing or sketching.

The new brush types are available in the writing toolbar in Notebooks, in sticky notes in books, and anywhere else you can write on your Kindle Scribe. Plus, all of these options are available as Premium Pen shortcuts, so you can slot them straight into your workflow.

The Kindle Scribe now allows you to create subfolders, or folders within folders, to better organize the content in your notebooks. That’s a pretty big improvement for those who create a lot and want to make sure all of their content is as organized as possible.

Creating a subfolder is easy too.Simply hit the “+” buttonin any folder to create a new folder. And, if you decide you want that folder somewhere else, you can move it byhitting the three-dot menuandselecting the move option. Easy!

Navigating within your notebooks is even easier now by jumping straight to a page without having to scroll. All you have to do ishit the three-dot iconwhen you’re in a notebook, thenselect the “Go to page” option, andtype the page numberyou want to go to. That makes it a whole lot easier to navigate through those high-page-count notebooks.
