What’s new
Version 1.4.3 · Updated September 17, 2026
In the Paragraph layout, a reading whose text carried a footnote could stop mid-word and lose the rest of the verse, with nothing to show that anything was missing. This week's Exodus reading ended partway through its last sentence. Readings now run through to the end.
