**Story navigation:** swipe between Article, Reader, and Comments; animated transitions when opening stories from the feed, queue, or history; and preloaded story views for smoother switching. **Reading:** extracted Reader content is kept in the query cache, with fixes for delayed extraction failures and retries. **Cards and layout:** refreshed large, grid, and compact story cards; improved responsive feed and comment layouts; and fixes for card fades and masonry grids when card details are hidden. **Settings:** clearer card controls, a legal screen, and updated navigation and native iOS controls. **Analytics:** an optional Share Analytics setting and privacy controlled usage and reliability tracking, including widget inventory when enabled.
