uxjulia/CrossInk v1.3.0

on GitHub

This release is up to date with the master branch of Crosspoint as of 7:40pm EDT May 21, 2026

New

• To reduce overall build size so that new features can continue to be added and still keep the font sizes that people have been using, teensy (8 pt) needed to be removed from the tiny build variant and a new build variant has been created called teensy with 4 font sizes: teensy (8pt), itty-bitty (9pt), tiny (10pt), small (12pt). My hope is that as custom SD card fonts stabilize (they've already come a long way!), I won't need to create a bunch of different build variants just for different font sizes and eventually I'll be able to consolidate down to just one default build.
• Crossink now uses it's own font repository to be able to provide a wider range of font sizes that match with the built-in font sizes for each build variant.
• ChareInk and Lexend Deca have been added to the list of available fonts to download, so you can download them in whatever size range you want (teensy through huge).
• New setting option for Download Font Size Range in Settings > Reader. Choosing an option will download the fonts in that size range. The names match with what the same-name build variant offers for font sizes, or you can choose all and get all eight font sizes. You can mix and match size ranges if you want. They all get consolidated into a single folder and the different sizes can be chosen from Font Sizes. The Font Size settings option should dynamically change based on what sizes are available.
  • teensy: 8, 9, 10, 12 pt
  • tiny: 10, 12, 14, 16 pt
  • xlarge: 16, 18, 20 pt
  • no_emoji: 10, 12, 14, 16, 18 pt
  • all: 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20 pt
• Added automatic retries (up to 3x) when downloading fonts.
• Added ability to resume downloading of fonts when a failure occurs. It will now pick up from the last partial download.
• Added a minimal sleep screen option that shows the book cover and reading stats from the minimal theme but on a black background. Set it from Settings > Display > Sleep Screen > Minimal.
• New Sleep Cover option for Quick Resume. When the device is put to sleep (manually or via timeout), this will display the last screen you were on with a small moon icon on the bottom left. (crosspoint-reader#2064 crosspoint-reader#2089)
• New option for Quick Resume on Timeout. When set to ON this will display the last screen you were on before the device goes to sleep due to the Time to Sleep elapsing. Note: if Sleep Cover is set to Quick Resume, this option will automatically be set to ON. (crosspoint-reader#2064 crosspoint-reader#2089)
• When in the file browser, long-pressing on the file with the OPEN button displays the filename wrapped up to 2 lines to better show long filenames. (#174)

Changed

• X3 tilt-to-turn shortcuts now display a visual confirmation (#158)
• Improved cover thumbnail images for Minimal and Lyra Carousel so there is less of a grid effect
• Moved the "Footnotes" option as the first listed option in the reader menu when footnotes are present (#170)

Fixed

• Avoid OPDS catalog browsing to crash on low memory (#142)
• Prevent XTC chapter selector from crashing on low memory (#149)
• Relaxed KOReader auth response validation to allow other sync servers like kosync-dotnet with different auth responses to succeed (#156)
• Fix Lyra Carousel menu buttons appearing as black boxes on X3 (thanks @erickosanchezj!)
• Various improvements to Wi-Fi throughput to speed up downloads and reduce failures
• Reduce potential idle battery drain from X3's tilt sensor and tighten up edge-cases where the OPDS browser may not properly go to sleep

Merged from Crosspoint

New

• X3 clock support, including RTC/NTP sync, UTC offset, and 12/24-hour status bar clock options.
• Options to automatically clear read books from Recents, and ability to manually remove a book from Recents.
• Theme-aware reader menus.
• Domitian font family added to downloadable fonts.
• Swedish hyphenation support.

Changed

• Page-turn direction now follows the current screen orientation more naturally.
• X3 page turns should feel faster
• Home screen cover caching uses less RAM, improving stability on memory-tight devices.
• Menus remember the last selected position when returning.
• SD-card font screens and EPUB Optimizer UI have clearer handling and feedback.

Fixed

• Improved deep-sleep and wake reliability, especially around USB power.
• OTA, KOReader auth, and some Wi-Fi exits now recover more cleanly from memory fragmentation.
• OTA update checks/downloads are better protected from low-memory failures.
• OPDS downloads now prefer the original EPUB file instead of derived formats when both are available.
• Fixed several image/rendering edge cases, including JPEG skip handling and grayscale cleanup.
• Fixed card overflow on small screens and URL-encoded image handling during EPUB optimization.
