Kobo launches Stack subscription for ebook cloud syncing

Kobo has introduced Stack, a monthly subscription service allowing users to upload and sync personal ebooks and documents across multiple devices. The service, similar to Amazon's Send to Kindle, supports EPUB and PDF files up to 200MB, syncing reading progress and annotations. It is currently rolling out in select international markets, including the UK and Australia, with pricing starting at £2.99 per month.

The feature is part of a major 6.0 firmware update currently in beta. While compatible with recent Kobo e-readers, support for older models is expected soon. The update also includes expanded library card integration and improved accessibility features for all users.

Editor's note: The draft omits the specific 90-day free trial and the 60-day data deletion policy, which are key consumer details.
