on GitHub

This release is up to date with the latest Crosspoint master branch as of May 3, 2026 12:30pm EDT.

New

• Add/Update your WiFi network settings from the Web UI. Merged from Crosspoint PR #1743
  • File Transfer > Create Hotspot - Connect to it via your computer or phone by entering the address shown on the device into a browser, then navigate to the Settings tab. WiFi settings are at the bottom.
• Power button short-press now acts as a confirm action when outside of the reader (#68)
• Pin a favorite image as the custom sleep screen.
  • The favorited image will always be displayed when your sleep settings are set to Custom or Cover + Custom (when no cover is available). Do this from the file browser and long-press the menu button to access the option.
  • Favorited images are marked with an asterisk (*).
• New sleep screen option to display reading stats (#47)
• Guide dots are now shown when paragraph alignment is set to justify
• Add File Transfer as a configurable action for power-button short press, power-button long press, and the reader's long-press menu action (#52)
• Due to popular demand, two new font sizes have been added
  • Teensy (8pt - for those with crazy good eyesight. A font size for ants, really 😃 )
    • Teensy is only available in the tiny and no_emoji build due to firmware size constraints.
  • Huge (20pt - for those with not so good eyesight 😄 )
    • Huge is only available in the xlarge build due to firmware size constraints.
• Long-press in the file browser now triggers on delay rather than on release
• Long-press on side buttons now triggers on delay rather than on release
• Reading session tracking tweaks: reading time only counts after 10 seconds in the reader has elapsed, and a full session only registers after 60 seconds has elapsed (#48)
• Added full Project Hail Mary support for funsies. Because it's one of my favorite books 👎 (iykyk). Music symbols, math symbols, Cyrillic, and Simplified Chinese used in the book should render now.
• Various stability/performance improvements. Page turns and indexing within the reader should be much faster now, especially with image-heavy epubs.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed white screen flash before sleeping when a custom sleep screen is set (#51)
• Fixed chapters with images failing to render gracefully when memory is low
• Fixed OTA updates crashing (#49)
• Fixed power button + side-down button combo accidentally triggering a long-press power action
• Addressed ghosting issues by changing bitmap rendering from fast refresh to half refresh
• Fixed legacy formatted XTC files not opening (#37)
• Fixed KOReader sync issues when books were downloaded via OPDS (#35)
• Fix OTA update fails on X3 and X4 (#58)
• Fixed button labels overlapping menu items in landscape mode
• Fixed Page Overlay sleep images not rendering after performing a KOReader sync and then immediately putting the device to sleep (#50)
• Fixed missing "Tilt Page Turn" for X3 devices in Controls setting menu
• Fixed auto page turn still allowing the device to go to sleep
• Fixed bookmark toggle falsely reporting "Bookmark added" after the bookmark limit was reached (#72)
  • The per-book bookmark limit has been raised from 32 to 1024 (a cap remains in place to avoid excessive memory usage)
  • This change requires a file migration which will occur automatically the first time a bookmarked book is opened
  • Note: After a bookmark file has been migrated, older firmware that only understands the previous bookmark format may no longer read that book's bookmarks
• Fixed reading progress sometimes saving the wrong chapter position after certain reader actions, which could cause a book to reopen to an earlier position than expected (#72)
