What's New
📖 Reader & Manga
- Intelligent Double-Page Spreads & RTL Reading (#1018, #1008):
- Wide and landscape double-page spreads are now shown seamlessly on their own full-width screen instead of being awkwardly paired with single pages.
- Switching between single and double-page view, rotating your device, or changing reading modes no longer resets your progress back to chapter 1.
- Resuming chapters in Right-to-Left (manga) reading mode now starts in the correct direction without layout flipping.
- Instant Border Cropping & Cache Improvements:
- Turning border crop on or off in Webtoon / continuous reading now applies instantly without re-downloading the images.
- Fixed an issue where resuming a chapter at a saved page could cause an infinite loading spinner for already cached images.
- Smoother Reading Experience:
- Fixed page flickering and display glitches when scrolling quickly through continuous chapters.
Novel Reader
- Scroll-Free E-Reader Paged Mode (#1019):
- Read novels like a real book with page-turning swipes and taps instead of endless vertical scrolling.
- Quickly switch between Continuous Scroll and Paged Reading directly from the novel settings sheet.
- Single & Double-Page Column Layouts (#1019):
- Added single-page and side-by-side double-page reading modes, optimized for tablets, foldable devices, and landscape screens.
- Settings sheet changes (reading mode, page mode) are now applied and previewed instantly.
Video Player & Anime
- Player Screen Lock (Mobile):
- Added a dedicated screen lock button to the mobile controls to prevent accidental touches while watching.
- When locked, all on-screen controls, touch gestures (swiping to seek, volume/brightness, double-tap jump, 2x speed hold), and the skip button are completely disabled.
- Protects against accidentally exiting the player with the back button or back gesture.
- Tap anywhere on the locked screen to display a quick-unlock button in the top-left corner.
- Cleaner Seek Indicator:
- Simplified and streamlined the swipe-to-seek visual overlay on the player.
Features & User Experience

- Reordering categories in settings is now much more responsive and intuitive using dedicated drag handles.
- Details Header Polish:
- Improved visual layout and formatting in the manga/anime details header.
Fixes & Stability
