  • Option to mix Folders/Files in Folder Library view. When option is activated, Folders and Files are mixed, if option is deactivated Folders are displayed first. In Options => Library => Mix folder and files in Folder library view.
  • Remove « GET_TASKS » permission. This permission was added to kill the app process when screen turned off (depending of option: Options => System => Kill process when screen is off). I find another way to do this so this permission is not needed anymore. (I receive lots of user questions about this permission).
  • Search action in Library view (Search item in action bar). It will filter all comics using text entry (keep all comics/collection with title starting by text entry).
  • Improved PDF file management (quality should be better)
  • Option to switch in Night Mode (for epub file), in Options => Display => Display text in Night Mode. You can also set Night Mode action to Long press action and Double tap action.
  • Option to display title only on first page, in Options => Display => Display title only on first page
  • Fixed minor bugs

  • Option to deactivate/activate File cache. If File cache is deactivated, images data will be stored only in RAM (no data stored on flash memory). If File cache is activated, reopen a previously opened comics file will be faster because scale/filter will not be done twice (scaled/filtered images data are stored in File Cache) (in Options => Cachev=> File Cache)
  • Option to specify if small images should be scale up. It will increase small images quality but will need more memory (in Options => Performances => Upscale Small Images)
  • Option to specify scale filter algorithm (in Options => Performances => Scale Filter algorithm)
  • Improved scrolling (scrolling should be smoother when page thumbnails are creating)
  • New Option to automatically rotate double-pages images. Option is available in Options => Display => Rotate double pages images
  • New Option to load all pages in Memory. This option should be used only on powerful devices (RAM >= 1GB and CPU >= 1.5 GHz). Option is available in Options => Cache => Aggressive Memory Cache
  • New Option to colorize Home view. Option is available in Options => System => Home view theme
  • Improved cpu consumption when app is put in background and screen is turned off (App is killed)
  • Fixed minor bugs
