more • Open Link and Copy Link work on every link again, and links you've read stay marked as read.
• The reading buttons are tidier and show your page at a glance.
• Tapping a book or article opens its page first, and tapping a highlight takes you straight to that passage.
• Recently Read and Continue Reading now show the books you're actually reading.
• Moving folders around is easier.
• Your library stays in step across your devices, and restoring a backup brings everything back.
• LinkBook is lighter and takes up less space on your phone.
4.1.2 2h ago
• Scrolling is smooth again. Your links could stutter while you scrolled, most of all in Cards, because LinkBook redrew the whole library each time you scrolled past a link. Now it redraws only what changes.
• TikTok links work again. TikTok changed how it shares posts, and every TikTok card ended in "The request timed out". Recipe videos turn into recipes with ingredients and steps again, and shared TikToks get their caption and picture.
• Continue opens a PDF on the page it shows. It used to open on the first page when you'd last read that PDF on another device, like your Mac.
• Save to LinkBook in Safari has a new design and the new LinkBook icon. It shows the page you're about to save and tells you when a tab has nothing to save.
4.1.1 1d ago
YOUR LIBRARY
• A new Library page puts your books, documents, articles and highlights in one place.
• Book and document covers now fill their tiles.
READ ELSEWHERE
• Keep the highlights of books you read on a Kindle or on paper: import My Clippings, or type, photograph or speak a passage.
• Copy those passages into the same book in your library.
FOLDERS
• A clearer folder menu, Move to Folder, and a count on every folder.
• Find a hidden folder again in Settings › Privacy › Hidden Folders.
SAVING
• Shares that carry text and a link now save the right link.
• Sharing a link you already saved updates it instead of adding a copy.
• TikTok saves no longer wait, and keep their picture.
Plus Handoff between your iPhone and iPad readers, a welcome that reads well at every text size, and many fixes.
4.1.0 4d ago
LinkBook 4.0 is our biggest update yet.
LISTEN
• Have any article, EPUB or PDF read aloud, with each word highlighted as it's spoken.
• Whole sentences flow naturally.
• Sleep timer, one-tap speed, your Personal Voice and lock-screen controls.
WRITE ON WHAT YOU READ
• Underline, circle or strike through text with your finger or Apple Pencil. Marks snap neatly to the words.
• Draw on PDF pages and add handwritten notes to your highlights.
• Highlights made in other apps now appear in your PDFs, and you can edit them.
SMARTER READING
• Ask a document a question, or have a passage explained, on device.
• Keep several notes per link, including quick summaries and key points.
• Reader insights now sync across your devices.
BOOK MODE
• iPhone Duo: open it up and Book Mode shows two pages side by side, one on each side of the fold.
• Pages stay perfectly in place, even in landscape and around the camera.
• Reader controls float over the page and follow your reading theme, light or dark.
A FRESH LOOK
• A new app icon.
• Books and documents show their own covers in your library.
• Redesigned link pages, side panel and welcome screens.
Plus steadier reading positions after updates, and many fixes
4.0.0 Sep 27
Faster, lighter, and more private under the hood.
• The library and search now use far less memory, especially with many articles saved for offline reading.
• Search results for approximate matches load instantly when you scroll.
3.7.6 Sep 21
Bugs Fixes: Fixes a bug in Text View's book mode where the page could jump on its own while a document was still being prepared. Also cleans up superseded copies of iCloud-synced documents.
3.7.5 Sep 19
Reader Insights, rebuilt.
Chapter briefs for PDFs and EPUBs, page briefs, and document overviews that sample chapters evenly across the whole book instead of the first few pages. Insights stream in as they're written, show their progress, and can be cancelled. Regenerate now gives you a genuinely different take.
A cleaner Insights sheet. One quiet surface that matches your reading theme, with a simple Chapter · Page · Document · Highlights switch.
Better text recognition for scanned PDFs. Text View no longer stops recognizing after the first pages of a scanned book — it works outward from where you're reading, picks up where it left off next time, and can recognize the rest on request. Small type is read more accurately and stray marks are filtered out.
Fixes. Reader Insights sometimes didn't open from the PDF view. "View original page" links in Text View now work. Reference-style pages no longer appear in a box. The search field's clear button sits properly inside the search bar.
3.7.4 Sep 17
What's New in 3.7.3
iCloud Sync, fixed
• Your library now syncs reliably between iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Some earlier uploads never reached iCloud even though Sync reported success; that's resolved, and everything is published again automatically.
• PDFs, EPUBs, and other reading files you import on one device now download on your other devices the first time you open them — no more "Locate in Files".
• If a file can't be fetched yet, LinkBook tells you why (still uploading from the other device, sync turned off, no connection) instead of asking you to find it.
• First syncs on a new device are faster.
Recipes with amounts
• Recipe cards now keep the quantities creators state in captions, on-screen text, or narration — "2 tbsp soy sauce" stays "2 tbsp soy sauce".
• When a creator never mentions an amount, LinkBook can suggest a typical one, clearly marked with ≈. Turn this off in Settings › Smart Cards if you prefer only stated amounts. Requires Apple Intelligence.
• Better recipe extraction from captions with bulleted ingredient lists, and cleaner titles.
Also
• Refreshed theme previews in Settings.
• Sync Diagnostics shows the result of the last file download.
3.7.3 Sep 15
Recipes now listen. When you save a TikTok cooking video, LinkBook transcribes the narration on your iPhone and builds the recipe card from what the creator says, not just from the caption. Spoken ingredient lists and steps that never appeared on screen now show up as a checkable ingredient list and numbered steps, ready for Cook Mode.
* Narration transcription runs entirely on device and requires iOS 26.
3.7.2 Sep 8
a redesigned Safari extension for faster saving. Save the current page with one tap, or use Premium to save all open tabs together as a named folder. We also refined the iPad and Mac (Designed for iPad) experience, improved extension branding and Premium handoff, and fixed interface and reliability issues.
3.7.1 Aug 23
Too many Safari tabs open? LinkBook now gives tab hoarding a home. Premium users can save all their open Safari tabs on Mac into one organized folder—then close the tabs without losing what matters.
3.7.0 Aug 20
• A refreshed welcome tour, smoother scrolling, and more reliable saving
3.6.0 Aug 13

2.5.4 Jul 22
• Fixed an issue where the list could jump and lose your scroll position after syncing — your place is now preserved.
• Sync now refreshes only what actually changed, so an up-to-date sync leaves the list untouched.
2.5.3 Jul 21
Highlighting is now easier to use across articles, PDFs, and EPUBs. Selection tools stay clear of your text, and tapping an existing highlight provides quick options to change its color, add a note, or remove it.
Book Mode is easier to access with a cleaner control, and Reader pages no longer repeat matching article titles.
PDF Text View now reconstructs fragmented slide text more cleanly, improves right-to-left reading for converted Word and PowerPoint files, and keeps highlighted text readable in Dark Mode.
We also refreshed the Save to LinkBook action icon and fixed deleted videos remaining visible in open folders.
3.5.1 Jul 18
Highlighting is now easier and less intrusive across articles, PDFs, and EPUBs. Highlighting tools stay clear of selected text and scrolling controls, selections remain active while choosing an action, and saved highlights are easier to delete.
Also new:
• Look up, translate, search Wikipedia, and save vocabulary from selected text.
• New insights and highlight digests for EPUB and PDF documents.
• Improved local backup and restore, plus Premium automatic backups and iCloud backup history.
