Kindle with Braille Display Issues?

Hey all, for those of you who read Kindle with a braille display. Have you noticed in the latest kindle update, it randomly removes spaces between certain words? I'm not sure if you notice this using VoiceOver voices or what, but in braille it's very noticeable. Anyone know a fix for this or am I just going to have to wait until the next Kindle app update? Thanks!

Yes! I too noticed this and it's super annoying. Not sure if this happened in the latest Kindle version or if something weird is going on with iOS 16.6, but it's very frustrating. I tried reaching out to Amazon to report this, but after four chat reps, two phone reps, and an hour of my life that I'll never get back, I was told that it could be submitted as feedback. Tomorrow I'll try and find a more direct method to reach out to Kindle accessibility but for now, just know you're not alone in experiencing this. One more thing, this also happen without a braille display if continuously reading: RoiceOver will read multiple words as if there are no spaces, does this every other line or so.
