Getting Started with Eink Mode

Quick Start Guide

1. Disable Desktop Site View

If you are using the mobile version of Firefox, to ensure that Eink mode works properly, please confirm that you have disabled the desktop site view in the Firefox browser. You can check this by:

• In the Firefox browser, click on the kebab menu in the upper right corner⋮, then select the "Desktop Site" option and make sure it is turned off.

If you find that the webpage cannot enter Eink Mode while using it, please double-check whether the desktop view has been disabled. The mobile version of Firefox is currently set to be enabled by default; if you do not want to manually disable it every time you open a new page, it is recommended to adjust the default setting to "off" as follows.

• Click on the kebab menu in the upper right corner⋮, and from the dropdown menu, select Settings.
• Scroll down and click on Site Settings, find and select the Desktop Site option, and set it to off.
• Restart the browser to ensure the settings take effect.

2. Activate Eink Mode

You can activate Eink Mode in the following ways:

• On any webpage, click on the kebab menu in the upper right corner of the Firefox browser⋮, then select "Extensions," and click on Eink Mode.
• If you have allowed "Access to data on all sites," simply swipe from left to right with your finger on any webpage to activate Eink Mode.

3. Understand Link Behavior

In Eink Mode, clicking on a hyperlink will not take you directly to the specified webpage, but will show a pop-up menu to let you choose from the following actions:

• Open the link in the current tab
• Open the link in a new browser tab
• Previous or next page button
• If the link jumps to a specific place within the article, the internal jump menu button will appear

This design is to allow you to safely click to turn pages in Eink Mode without accidentally clicking a hyperlink that redirects you to another page.

4. Open Tool Menu

In Eink Mode, swipe from left to right with your finger on the screen to open the tool menu.

In the tool menu, you can adjust font size, background theme, drawing, highlighting tools, or view the user manual.
