v1.11.1-295

Beta 11

Ebook reader

  • New - Scroll mode: read the book as one long page instead of turning pages. Turn it on in the Tt menu
  • New - Picture-only ebooks, like illustrated kids' books, open in the comic reader so the pages fill the screen
  • Fix - Books open where you left off after reading on the web, instead of back at the start
  • Fix - Books where another app saved the reading spot no longer open to a blank page
  • Fix - Pictures stay on their own page instead of leaving a strip on the next one
  • Fix - Ebook-only books on the Continue card open the reader instead of trying to play

Read along

  • New - Turn or scroll pages while read along runs, then tap Back to narration in the menu to return to the sentence being read
  • Fix - The page no longer turns ahead and snaps back on sentences that end in an italic word

Comic reader

  • New - Bookmarks, synced with BookOrbit for picture ebooks

Lists

  • New - New Collection and New Playlist buttons in the Lists tab menu. Playlists can start empty, and an Audiobookshelf collection asks for its first book

BookOrbit

  • New - Smart Scopes show in the Lists tab with a filter icon. Create, edit and delete them with the same rule builder as the web
  • New - Filter the library by reading status
  • Fix - Skimmed books show as Skimmed instead of Finished
  • Fix - Scan Series checks every series and stops listing books you already have as missing
  • Fix - Big collections and Smart Scopes show their full book count and load the rest as you scroll

iPhone

  • Improved - Transcription and read along run on the GPU again on iOS older than 26.2, so they're back to full speed

Android

  • Fix - The play button works again after the phone takes the audio away from a book paused for a while

Other

  • Improved - The book details sheet uses each library's own cover shape
