This release adds a new Review Queue so books from Search and Scan can continue analyzing in the background and be reviewed when ready. Verdict cards have been redesigned to make reader-specific concerns easier to scan, with clearer severity grouping and a new “Also in this book” section for content that is present but not personally flagged. The Library is now fully reader-first, replacing the old “My Shelf” behavior while preserving existing saved data. Discover now brings together search and personalized book recommendations by reader, helping families find better-fit books more easily.

SHELF DECISIONS REDESIGN Each reader now has their own status row showing their current decision: Added, Saved for Later, Rejected, or Undecided. Tap "Decide" to make a choice or "Change" to update it. No more confusing plus-sign pills. For families with multiple readers, quick action buttons at the bottom let you apply a decision to everyone at once: Add All, Later All, or Reject All. SCANNING IMPROVEMENTS When a scanned barcode is not found, the camera dims and a search bar appears at the top with a clear "ISBN not found" message. Search by title or author instead. The camera and scan cards are hidden while searching so nothing overlaps. Scan progress cards are now anchored to the bottom of the screen where they belong. After scanning multiple books and tapping Review All, "Save All for Later" now takes you directly to your bookshelf. "Add All to Bookshelf" only approves books that passed your filters.
