There is a release practically every month:
We don't copy release notes to MobileRead any longer .
We understand that inline footnotes are really important to you, while another set of features are really important to another user and so on. However, we look at all the requests in aggregate from ALL readers and incorporate that in our roadmap. Inline footnotes are on the roadmap but it is not planned for this year. It is a 2025 item.
We really do appreciate the support but If it is a significant deal breaker for you then we agree and suggest to not resubscribe until that feature is available for you to get enough value from the platform.
Many users might be used to a lot faster development cycle that is done by other apps that use react-native, electron or other web based wrapper platforms that use a single code base with minor modifications across all platforms. However, at BookFusion we take the fully native approach where each platform or feature is implemented natively in their respective language and framework which takes significantly longer. In a gist we have found that it is best to not take the fast food approach when developing software for reading that needs to be performant.
