Voice Boost now works everywhere Voice Boost previously had no effect on most books, including everything streamed from a server — the control was there, but the sound never changed. It now works during normal playback, on downloaded and streamed books alike, lifting speech out of a noisy or quietly mastered recording. Speed and Voice Boost are remembered per book Each book keeps its own playback speed and Voice Boost level. Books you have never adjusted follow the defaults in Settings, so changing a default now affects them as it should instead of only applying to newly added books. Streamed books keep their own settings too, rather than borrowing whatever you last set on a downloaded one. Fixes • The progress bar can be dragged on books that have no chapters. Dragging it did nothing before — it snapped straight back. • Dragging the progress bar to the very end no longer restarts the book from the beginning. • The position no longer freezes after you drag backwards. • The percentage next to the progress bar now matches the bar itself. • Changing speed while paused no longer starts playback. • Speed changes now take effect immediately on books played through the backup audio engine. • Playback speed is pitch-corrected for speech, so voices stay natural when sped up. • Starting playback from Apple Watch no longer resets the book's speed to 1x. • Hardcover sign-in accepts your API token however you paste it, including straight from Hardcover's own page. Sign-in problems now say what is actually wrong — a bad token, a token without the right access, or too many requests — instead of a single unhelpful message. • Hardcover book search reports connection and sign-in problems instead of quietly showing no results. • Trimming a clip near the very end of a book no longer fails.

iPad support Lysn is now a proper iPad app. A sidebar replaces the tab bar, listing your library, downloads and stats, every Audiobookshelf and Plex server with its books, series, authors and collections, plus Hardcover and Settings. The mini player sits at the bottom of the sidebar so it stays put while you browse. Now Playing gets a two-column layout in landscape, with the chapter list beside the controls instead of covering the artwork. Grids use smaller cover art to fit far more on screen, and Settings, Downloads and Listening Stats open as full screens rather than sheets. Keyboard, trackpad and drag and drop With a hardware keyboard: Space to play or pause, arrow keys to skip, Cmd+[ and Cmd+] for previous and next chapter, Cmd+F to search, Cmd+, for settings, Cmd+L to show or hide the sidebar, and Cmd+1 to Cmd+9 to jump between sidebar sections. Covers and rows now respond to a trackpad pointer, and you can drag audiobooks straight from Files into your library. Marking books as finished Marking a book as finished now reliably updates Audiobookshelf, Plex and Hardcover. It previously missed Hardcover entirely, and could silently do nothing at all for some books. Reaching the end of a book now marks it finished on your server, and ending a listening session no longer discards the last few seconds of progress — which could leave a book stuck just short of complete. Marking a book as unfinished now syncs too, and keeps your position instead of resetting it to the start. Progress accuracy Progress percentages are now worked out from your actual position in the book, so they always agree with the time shown beside them. Look and feel A cleaned-up app icon with proper dark and tinted variants for iOS 18 and later, and a real launch screen in place of a blank one. The bottom bar is a consistent height across every tab and tucks away as you scroll. Large library counts are easier to read.

Sleep Timer Live Activity See and control your sleep timer right from the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island — no need to open the app. Extend it by your usual preset, or stop playback exactly at the end of the current or next chapter with one tap. More Sleep Timer Options Choose "End of Next Chapter" to keep listening a little longer, or "Choose a Chapter" to pick exactly where you want playback to stop. Cover-Matched Mini Player The mini player now takes on the colors of whatever book you're listening to, just like the full player screen. Simpler Navigation Search and Settings are now quick-access icons at the top of your Home screen. More Reliable Syncing Resuming a book now checks for newer progress from another device or the official Audiobookshelf/Plex apps before playback starts, and background syncing no longer overwrites progress that hasn't synced yet. "End of Chapter" timers also now work correctly while streaming. Thanks for listening with Lysn!
