What's New in (Be better) Read

0.0.8

May 20, 2026

Weekly reading picks now meet you inside your library, so it is easier to choose the next book before your habit loses momentum. [ New ] • Weekly recommendations — browse curated books from your Shelf, open details, and follow external links without leaving your reading flow. • Book notes shortcut — jump from a book directly into its notes, sorted for review, so your journal and reading log stay close to the page. [ Improved ] • Curations match your language when available and stay visible even while the latest pick is still being localized. • Recommendation cards are easier to scan, with clearer week labels, smoother carousel layout, and marquee text that loops cleanly. • Share-card editing feels more precise: dragged text snaps to measured edges and gives a light haptic cue when alignment lands. • Reading sessions can fade into a timer-only blackout, helping you protect focus without extra screen noise.
