Version 3.8 sent to AppStore (color themes, reading wraps, a lot of fixes)

[petrjahoda]

■ New features
- Reading Wrap: a story-style recap of your reading, with covers, stats, and superlatives. Opens from Home, Stats, a monthly banner, or the yearly takeover, and any card can be shared.
- Personalize the whole app with a surface theme. Pick a color in Settings → Appearance and tune background and section-fill strength with sliders. Your choice syncs across your devices.
- A new custom color picker with Spectrum and Sliders tabs, used for both the app theme and reading color presets.
- Import books straight from Files. A new + button in the Library opens a multi-select picker for EPUB and PDF, with batch progress, cancel, and duplicate detection.
- New library-wide bookmark manager. See every bookmark from every book in one place, grouped By Book or By Date, with search and tap-to-open. Opens from the Home toolbar.
- Download PDFs from OPDS catalogs, not just EPUBs. Each imported book opens in the right reader automatically.
- Import fonts without leaving the reader. A new + in the EPUB fonts sheet adds fonts mid-book, and the list refreshes instantly.
- First launch now seeds a small starter library so there is something to read right away.

■ Improvements
- Every sheet now uses a standard navigation bar with the close button on the leading edge, matching iOS conventions. Reader sheets in landscape get a tighter header and the right width.
- Redesigned share cards for books, milestones, highlights, and Wrap: solid artwork with no transparent edges, and actions in the toolbar.
- Recap is more interactive: swipe through the cover fan, scrub periods with a horizontal date strip, and see every finished book on one cover wall.
- Highlight notes can be edited inline.
- Restyled full-screen image viewer, with smoother panning when zoomed.
- Calibre now detects better changes per book, so unchanged books are no longer re-imported.
- Clearer OPDS downloads: a green check and a success haptic confirm when a book finishes importing.
- Refreshed onboarding, library location sheet, Library import button, and audiobook toolbar.

■ Fixes
- Fixed a crash when opening a book whose description contains HTML.
- Fixed Files import reporting "0 imported" for readers who had never picked a library folder.
- Fixed OPDS catalogs (e.g. Kavita) showing the same book several times while hiding others.
- Fixed the image browser opening the wrong image on first open, and images sitting off-center.
- Fixed the Roadmap detail view going blank after a refresh.
- Fixed reader search fields on iPad needing two taps before the keyboard appeared.

■ Accessibility
- Broad VoiceOver and Dynamic Type pass across the reader, library, stats, and sheets: charts inside cards are reachable again, oversized text no longer breaks layouts, low-contrast text is readable in light mode, small controls got full-size tap targets, and the new color picker is fully operable with VoiceOver.

■ Localization
- All the newly added text is natively translated across all supported languages.

If I turn off the wrap thing in home, does it also get rid of the monthly banner? I have no need for that feature and want to turn it off completely.

You can change the display settings in DISPLAY menu when you can turn it off.

Ok, thanks. Wasn’t sure if that also disabled the banner.

I don't know if its related to this latest update, but when i highlight a word and select "lookup", the pop up panel is now blank.

Hi man, and thank you for reporting this. Ipad is OK, but iPhone has this problem. And yes, it is a bug. Will fix it right away. 3.9 is almost done (because for some reason it took Apple 4 days for 3.8), I would like to release it tomorrow.

Sorry for this, a stupid bug.

FYI: if you enlarge the sheet, the data appears, so for now this is a workaround.

[gustophersmob]

No worries, bugs happen!

Thanks for the quick reply and workaround!

[petrjahoda]

Fixed, will be in 3.9. Once again sorry for this stupid bug, but I was rewriting all the sheets (as I think you noticed, as the close button is now placed on left according to Apples HIG).

Hi, 3.9 was just pushed to AppStore for review.

[gustophersmob]

Thanks, that fixed it!
