koreader-2024-11-slangie

Note for Tolino users: this release freezes the system, see #12769 for more information. See #11068 for how to download a newer nightly build.

Some of you on Android may have had dictionary issues. That should be fixed now.

Connecting to Wi-Fi should be more reliable on platforms where we manage it ourselves, most notably Kobo (koreader/lj-wpaclient#11).

Color is now supported when reflowing (#12085).

KOReader 2024.07 "Outside"

koreader-sonnenfee-2024-07-outside

A big thanks to @ezdiy and @benoit-pierre for taking on the major effort of updating MuPDF (#11940). Unfortunately or hopefully you won't notice a thing, but some edge cases in PDF rendering have been fixed.

Likewise our gratitude to @Commodore64user for the many non-touch/keyboard focused improvements.

If you used the built-in update to try out a development version in the last week of June you might need to overwrite the install manually, see #12115.

KOReader 2024.04 "Sourdough"

Sonnenfee - KOReader - Theme - sourtough

As usual, there have been so many changes that it's difficult to tell a coherent story about them. One of the more noticeable changes is that the sleep screen menu (formerly known as the screensaver menu) has been reworked (#11549). But there's also been a lot of work on the backend, updating the build infrastructure and crengine.

KOReader 2024.03 "Read 'n Relax"

Sonnenfee - KOReader - 1000 x 852

The cover grid is now adjustable, allowing you to display more or fewer book covers at once (#11232).

In more technical news, the CSS pseudoclasses :is(), :where() and :not() are now supported (#11353), as well as a private syntax extension for matching text in user stylesheets (#11323). Also of note is the new HttpInspector plugin, that can be used to inspect KOReader internals while it's running (#11457). This can be useful when the program is running on a device.

Last but not least, the user guide received a big update again by @offset-torque, full details here.

The user guide has had a big update. Included below is the full release announcement, thanks to @offset-torque.

USER GUIDE 23.10 UPDATE

This is the biggest ever update to the guide. 2 years ago I started with the intention to make a simple how-to guide. With this release, user guide reached 60 A4 pages ! KOReader might be the best documented reader app now :)

Our guide is now a HTML document:
https://koreader.rocks/user_guide/

It was very tedious to recreate the PDF as a web page (especially considering that I had to learn CSS to do it).
But there are many benefits like:
- More frequent and real-time updates
- Better compatibility for smaller devices
- Ability to directly link to it in issues and discussions
- Possibility to be packed as an EPUB
- PDF sucks

Also I recently noticed that our color palette in the guide was not suitable for color blind people. Some important items were indistinguishable for color blind users so I updated the colors to provide nice contrast for them too. Also added icons and visual aids to make the text more accessible.

CHANGELOG

GUIDE CHANGES:

  • Recreated the guide in HTML
  • Updated the colors, fonts and styles to accomodate color blind users
  • Optimized all the images to make them as small as possible without degradation (Achieved ~50% reduction in size)

MAJOR CHANGES:

  • Fonts has its own section now
  • Quick Menu and Profiles has its own section now
  • Expanded Plugins section to include contrib and external plugins
  • Rewritten Highlighting, Bookmarks and Notes section
    • "Highlight icon" in the File Browser
    • Bookmarks: filter by highlight style
    • Multiple highlights and notes
  • Expanded Export section
    • Export multiple files
    • Export to clippings format
    • Export to memos format
    • See and choose export folder
  • Added Keyboard shortcuts section for non-touch devices and Linux
  • Added full list of actions that is available in Gesture Manager

ADDED INFO ABOUT:

  • Partial rendering
  • Translate current page
  • Scrolling modes
  • Creating a profile with current document settings
  • Open with: Archive viewer
  • Open with: Image viewer
  • Patch manager
  • Menu search
  • Location history
  • Setting to turn off flashing on pages with images
  • Ability to change statistics calculation time
  • Clearing PDF cache

  • "Move to archive" availability in Gesture Manager
  • Custom book cover setting
  • Using "Exit screensaver" gesture as a pseudo lock screen
  • Tap on time to show date
  • Verbose logs procedure in How to report problems section

UPDATED IMAGES:

koreader-2023-06-hydrangea-fs8

Hydrangea seems to be the common English name for what I know as the hortensia. They're quite pretty this month, with bumblebees buzzing all around.

This will be the final release to support Android 4.0 – Android 4.2, after which support for those versions will be removed. The new minimum supported version will be Jelly Bean MR2 (API18/Android 4.3). For more information see #10614.
