What’s new

Version 2.1.2 · Updated October 26, 2026

What's new in 2.1.2 • Page curl: turn pages like a real book, with a corner curl and swipes. • Two-page reading on iPad and Mac, and the app now fits bigger screens properly. • Redesigned reader controls. • Read-Along is better all round: controls right in the reader, the screen stays on while you follow along, and it picks up exactly where the narration stopped. • New book menu: press and hold a cover and your options rise up with it. • Premium has a fresh new look. • Widgets now match tinted Home Screens and StandBy. • Much better battery life during playback and reading. • Fixes for pages jumping, Read-Along landing on the wrong chapter, missing EPUB images, and CarPlay losing your place. iCloud sync is steadier too.
