CloudLibrary has a new bug with iOS 12. Sometimes when I reopen the app after using other apps, the book is not on the page I was up to, it's a few pages back. When I turn the page to find my place,...

I've found iOS 12 better when switching apps on my iPad Air and iPhone 6. I think previous iOS versions used too much RAM, so apps were being unloaded when not in use. iPad Air and prior only have...

The two fingers thing was better than nothing, but I found it to be imprecise. Easy to accidentally roll the cursor a little left or right or to the next line as you let go. I really like the...

Thank, that is useful. I suspect most of the problems relate to it not dealing well with the consequences of insufficient RAM. Your iPad 2017 has 2GB, whereas my iPad Air has only 1GB.

How do I download them? The only way I know is to log into the library on my ipad using the CloudLibrary app, and then I don't think I can do anything but read them with the app.

Confused now, I think I WAS actually running my customised recipe, so I also assume that's what fixed the problem.

If I schedule a standard recipe to run, then later customise it, will it run the...

Time zone for The Age recipe

When I first started using this recipe to get The Age onto my Sony PRS-T1, I noticed that often the dates on the downloaded books were wrong by a day. Guessing a bit, I changed this line:
