• Your credit balance now sits next to the chapter's creation options, so you can see what you can afford before you spend — not after

• Before a chapter is drawn as a comic, TaleAI now checks whether your story has a character design — without one, the same protagonist can come out looking like a different person on each page • You can create the character design first, or go ahead and draw anyway — the choice stays yours

• Chapter comics — finish a chapter, then have that chapter drawn as a multi-panel comic • Read it like a comic: full pages you can tap to zoom, with the dialogue set out below the art • A new activity center collects everything you have generating and tells you the moment it is ready • Move between chapters without leaving the page, and see illustration status right in the contents • Narration no longer makes you pick a voice first, plus a long list of reader fixes

• Cinematic openings — pick a mood, and the world, its tone and your first scene form around it • New Story Hall home screen; interactive stories and illustrated books now share one shelf • Illustrated books: two paths after each scene, and only the one you pick gets drawn • AI narration with a global mini player — keep listening while you browse • Clearer membership benefits, sharper typography, and assorted fixes

• Bookshelf filters — All / Ongoing / Finished • Smoother loading for large libraries • Filter your credits history by earned / spent • Bug fixes and improvements

• NEW — Listen: have your story read aloud. Tap any sentence to start there, adjust speed, set a sleep timer, pick your voice — keeps playing when locked. • NEW — Credit packs: top up anytime for covers, illustrations and character portraits. • Performance and stability improvements.
