Previously:

* You can now view Enhanced Transcripts for youtube videos -- they'll be capitalized correctly with punctuation, paragraph breaks, etc. Perfect for highlighting your favorite moments from any video :)


* Highlighting Upgrades – You should now notice several subtle upgrades to the highlighting experience ​including better grabbing of leading and trailing punctuation, smoother cross-page highlighting in Paged Scroll mode on mobile, and, most importantly, the ability to resize existing highlights!

* Ghostreader v2​​​​​​ – You can now customize the default Ghostreader ​prompts as well as craft your own ​creating the potential for all kinds of clever AI use cases while you read. As part of this, Ghostreader is now much easier to access on mobile and we've refreshed the default prompts.

* You can now export your highlights for any document to your clipboard or share sheet on mobile.

* Many fixes to PDFs, including their progress tracking and showing their cover images

* We've reverted the default behavior in the reading view where you need to tap the bottom to open the action menu. You can still re-enable this behavior in your reading settings though.

* Highlighting should now be a lot more smooth/natural in this version :) No longer struggle to include punctuation or make the selection work just right.

* An improved style sheet for customizing every detail of how you want you want to read.

* You can now toggle "original styles" on your ePub books, which should improve their formatting quite a bit.

* We've completely revamped the search feature to be a lot more fast & accurate. Find any document in your library, instantly.

* Many Text to Speech improvements:
* TTS will now save your position in the background while listening
* TTS will not longer mistakenly change your speed
* TTS indicator will fail less frequently when wrapping words at the end of paragraph
* TTS is a lot faster and more accurate on long documents (eg books)
* TTS player bar now takes less space, with new (more intuitive) buttons when you scroll away from the tracked word

* Nicer loading state (showing the cover) when opening books

* High contrast highlights for eink devices (can be enabled in settings)

* Subtle improvements to how taps and swipes open the UI while reading to make the experience feel more sturdy

* Improved reading position saving between sessions when paginated

* You can now read any document in the Paged Scroll mode! This is especially useful for books, where you can now simply tap the left or right edges of the screen to jump to the last/next page of content, rather than constantly scrolling. This should be familiar to reading in apps like Kindle, except it has our own innovation that allows you to highlight across pages effortlessly.
