BOOX Go Color 7
Guides
Step-by-step setup and how-to articles for this device.
The Go Color 7 is an Android device, so most of the work is choosing and tuning apps rather than fighting a locked ecosystem. This section covers setting up a new one, installing the reading apps you want, and the display settings that make Android apps usable on an e-ink screen. KOReader and Calibre have their own sections; Customization covers fonts, gestures and the per-app optimisation dialog.
