Bookerly replaced Caecilia as the default font for the 2015 Kindle Paperwhite (3rd generation) and it has been used as the default font on Amazon's following e-readers.[4] The Bookerly font was added to many of the older Kindle devices via firmware updates,[5] and it is also available at Amazon's Developer site.[6]
