BOOX Introduces Wireless Page Turner to Address ePaper Ergonomic Strain

BOOX has launched the Tappy, a wireless accessory enabling thumb-click page navigation on ePaper devices without direct screen contact. The device pairs via Bluetooth Low Energy and targets users who experience strain from repetitive touches during extended reading. The market has cycled through this before—Amazon removed physical buttons from most Kindles, then reintroduced them on premium models, suggesting tactile controls address persistent ergonomic needs that touch interfaces alone haven't fully resolved.
