Version 5.6 (Listen & Read, small features)
■ New features
- Listen & Read: link an EPUB to its audiobook, and the page follows the voice. Each sentence is shaded as it's spoken and the page turns by itself. Each copy keeps its own place and offers the other's when you switch. Linking is prepared on your iPhone or iPad, and the audio is never uploaded. Needs iOS 26 or later, for books in English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean and Chinese. - Folders: browse your library folder's own subfolders from the Library title menu. - Tap a section title in the Library to fold its books away, or use Collapse All and Expand All in the View menu. ■ Improvements - Fonts by Style: give body text and headings each a serif, sans serif or monospace font of their own, and choose fonts for a book's code, quotes, captions and tables. - Chapter Title Spacing: a slider on Spacing & Alignment trims the empty space above, inside and below each chapter's opening. - Time Left: the bottom reading bar can show the time left in the chapter or the book, based on your own reading pace. - Highlight Colors: repaint any of the six highlight colors. Books, lists, exports and share cards all use your color. - Series Look: choose how a grouped series stands out in the grid and the list, as Layers, Band, Count or Two Covers. Two Covers is the new default, and the choice is in Edit Library. - Library filters can include or exclude books by collection, or show only books in no collection. - A Calibre library folder now reads each book's details and cover from Calibre's own metadata.opf and cover.jpg files. - List rows can show a book's publication date. Turn it on in Edit Library. ■ Fixes - Fixed a crash that could happen in Search while results were updating. - OpenDyslexic, AccessibleDfA and iA Writer Duospace now change the book's font, and New York no longer shows as Times. - iPhone Duo: the open Duo turns to landscape after starting closed, a page on the closed Duo no longer starts under the status bar, and the audiobook player's controls stay on screen on the open Duo. - Back to Page and the pin button stay above the search results bar. - A password-protected PDF no longer disappears from the library right after you add it. ■ Localization - All new text is natively translated across all 21 supported languages. |
