What's New in BookWrite

1.3

October 7, 2026

Your bookshelf, on your home screen. Add the ScribeMe widget and your own books stand there on a wooden shelf - real covers, gold bands, each title down its spine. Thicker books look thicker, because the pages make them so. Touch any spine to open that book straight to writing, and choose which books appear in Settings. The shelf inside the shop got the same care: every book is now its own size and they stand shoulder to shoulder, the way books really do. Writing on ruled paper now sits properly on the lines, at any size, in any typeface - and changing the type restyles what you have already written instead of only what you type next. Reading mode shows your bold, italics and scene breaks at last, rather than flattening them to plain text. All of it free, as everything in ScribeMe always will be.
