Ratings & Reviews
This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Safety Tools — report or block other readers from any direct message, profile, or trade listing, and a community-guidelines agreement now keeps the cove friendly.
Delete Your Account — you can now permanently delete your account and all of its data right from Profile › Settings.
Private Messages — friend DMs are now fully private to you and your friend.
Custom Shelves — create your own named collections in the Library and organise books any way you like. Add or remove books from the ••• menu on any cover.
Continue Reading Carousel — when you have multiple books in progress, the Home screen now scrolls through all of them so nothing gets buried.
Post to Trade Shelf from Library — tap ••• on any book card and choose "Post to Trade Shelf" to jump straight into the trade form, pre-filled with the book's details.
Reading Speed — set your words-per-minute in Reading Settings (100–600 wpm) so time-remaining estimates match how you actually read.
Word Count — book detail pages now show total word count alongside chapter count.
iCloud Sync Feedback — Pull from iCloud and Push to iCloud now confirm with a brief success message.
Bug Fixes:
• Importing a file in the Library now shows a clear error if the file can't be read, instead of silently doing nothing.
• The Genre Setup sheet now gives a specific message when no AI provider is configured, rather than a generic error.
• Swiping down on a locked-chapter screen no longer causes it to snap back unexpectedly.
• Outgoing trade chats now show the other reader's real name instead of "Trade partner."
• Deleting a book from the Library now correctly removes it from any custom shelves.
• Fixed an incorrect "trans." label that was showing the original author as a translator in several places.
• Shell achievement progress is now tracked reliably even for long-time readers with many transactions.
• The centre whale button now correctly navigates admin users to the Discover section.
• Various fixes across the Trade Shop, chat composer, and reading statistics.
