What's New

  • Playlists - Playlists from your Audiobookshelf server now appear as sections on the Home screen. Add books to playlists from any book's detail sheet. Tap a playlist section title to see its full contents
  • Collections - Collections show up as Home sections. Root admins can add books and edit collections from the detail sheet
  • Customizable Home screen - Tap the edit button in the top right of Home to rearrange, hide, or show sections. Drag sections into your preferred order
  • Per-book notes - Add multiple notes per book from the Absorbing card. Supports markdown with a live preview toggle. Export notes as Markdown (.md) or Plain Text (.txt). Notes are backed up and restored with your settings
  • Welcome sheet - First-time users see a quick overview of the app's features and how things work
  • Offline improvements
    • Downloaded books now split into "Continue Listening" (in-progress) and "Downloaded Books" sections when offline
    • Book detail sheets show full metadata offline (description, narrator, chapters, series) from cached session data
    • Library switcher stays visible when offline so you can switch between book and podcast libraries
    • Playlists and collections are hidden when offline since they need the server
    • Downloads are filtered by library type - book downloads only show in book libraries, podcast downloads in podcast libraries

Improvements

  • Local server UX - Simplified settings with a "Set" button that saves and tries to connect immediately. Works when set up away from home - auto-connects when you reach your network
  • Server switch toasts - Floating notification when the app switches between local and remote server
  • Tips & Hidden Features - Added tips for Customize Home, Playlists, and Collections
