  • The dialog shows a cover header, full PDF properties, progress, and a status picker.
    
  • Rename on disk and delete from device sit side by side.
    
  • The dialog fully works on never opened files, fetching their info in the background.
    
  • A reading status can be assigned to any file, opened or not.
    
  • Setting a status quietly adds the file to the library.

  • Long press selection works on never opened files.
    
  • Batch status changes create library records for never opened files.
    
• Library Durability:

  • A moved file heals silently if the scanner finds it elsewhere.
    
  • Otherwise a relocate dialog lets you pick the file again.
    
  • Repicked files are verified by content, so reading progress is preserved.
    
  • If the reader fails to open a library item, it returns Home and starts recovery.
    
  • Files picked through the system picker keep working after a reboot.
    
  • Each opened document refreshes its stored location.
    
  • Records converge to real file paths as documents are opened.

  • Scanning never starts on its own. A setup card on the Library tab begins it.
    
  • Choose between scanning the whole device or only locations you pick.
    
  • A folder picker with breadcrumbs and tri state checkboxes selects scan locations.
    
  • The picker supports multiple storage volumes.
    
  • A Scan locations entry in the home menu changes the choice later.
    
  • Scans, background rescans, and the file observer respect the chosen scope.
    
  • Entries outside a narrowed scope are removed.
    
  • The scan scope filters only the Library grid, search, and stats.
    
  • File hashing and page counting stay within the configured scope.
    
  • Removing folders from the scope keeps their PDFs visible in Folders.
    
  • Whole device scanning keeps its full speed.
    
  • The library fills near instantly on a fresh install using the system media index.
    
  • A background scan catches anything the index missed.
    
  • The scanned index is saved, so every later launch shows the library immediately.
    
  • Expensive file processing happens silently in the background and never blocks the interface.
    
  • New downloads appear automatically while Home is open.
    
  • Deleted files are pruned safely.
    
  • Rescans skip unchanged files entirely.
    
  • Scanned but never opened files never pollute reading history.
    
  • Never opened files get page counts from the background scan.
    
  • All files access is requested with a proper explanation dialog.
    
  • The flow rechecks on return from system settings, with fallbacks for unusual devices.
    
  • A separate permission flow for older Android versions, including permanently denied handling.
    
  • Without access, Home still works in a degraded mode with a grant card.
    
  • The storage permission flow now works on Android 10 and below.
    
• Dual Page Mode:
  
  • New Dual Page Mode pairs pages side by side like a book.
    
  • An optional First Page Alone setting keeps the cover on its own.
    
  • Paired pages fit two columns across the view, separated by the page spacing.
    
  • Taps, selection, highlights, forms, and signatures resolve the correct page of a pair.
    
  • Flings, page snapping, volume keys, and mouse paging advance one spread at a time.
    
  • Page indicators show a range like 4 to 5 of 120 for spreads.
    
  • The reading percentage counts the spread's last page.
    
  • The bookmark star lights when either visible page is bookmarked.
    
  • A quick action flips the mode in place while keeping the reading position.
    
  • Position restore remembers the layout mode.
    
  • If the mode changed in between, it falls back to a plain page jump.
    
  • Covers reload immediately when storage access is granted.
    
  • Covers and page counts work for files opened through the system picker.
    
  • Five badge switches with a List Card Badges dialog choose what list rows show.

  • Contents rows recycle individually instead of rebuilding the whole tree.
    
  • A batched native call fetches character geometry and font data in one pass.
    
  • Text extraction uses a bounded cache with safe page lifecycle handling.
    
  • Rendering is chunked and cancellable, so stale work stops in milliseconds.
    
  • Every page gets a render once preview, cached in memory and on disk, drawn under the tiles.
    
  • An idle sweep pre renders previews for the whole book, yielding instantly to interaction.

  • Saving previews to disk no longer causes dropped frames.
    
  • Toggling the night theme repaints instead of re rendering everything.

  • The first run dialog can no longer appear on a destroyed screen.
    
  • The render thread survives rare race errors instead of crashing the app.
    
  • Hardened the native layer against overflows, bad sizes, and missing checks.

  • Saving auto scroll speed no longer blocks the interface.
    
  • Hardened document and margin detection lifecycle handling.
    
  • With Home disabled, back reopens the picker instead of exiting.
    
  • Cancelling that picker exits the app, so back twice still leaves.
    
  • The double tap to exit prompt still comes first when enabled.
    
  • The toolbar home arrow updates immediately after toggling the Home setting.
    
  • Fixed a memory corruption risk when closing pages of form documents.
