Calibre 2.79 is here two weeks after the release of version 2.78, which introduced support for the newest Kobo firmware and many bug fixes. It’s also a small release that only introduces a pop-up message to inform users when an Android device is connected. The user will then need to interact with the informational pop-up message to allow the respective Android device to work with Calibre by simply clicking on the Allow button. This has been currently implemented only for Linux-based operating systems and Mac OS X.
