What's New in Cloister Ink

1.0.18

September 11, 2026

Move several files at once. Touch and hold one in the list, choose Select…, mark the others, then tap Move on the bar at the foot of the list and pick the folder or the side. Each file is copied, checked, and only then removed from where it was; a file that changed under you while it was marked is left alone and named, never moved blind. Read Aloud. Ask reads the highlighted passage, or the whole page when nothing is highlighted, in the system voice, on this device, and Cloister Ink sends nothing for it. Pause holds the voice where it is, Resume picks up from there, Stop ends it. Pick a Voice in Settings under Ask and a highlighted passage is read in that voice instead: ChatGPT, or any saved endpoint with a speech route, whether or not it is the AI you ask. Slides. Highlight a passage, or select all for the whole page, and press Slides. The deck comes back as Markdown, one slide per rule, and Save Deck files it beside your document as its own file you can edit like any other and present from Marp, Deckset, or any slide tool that reads Markdown. If anything gets in the way of your writing, tell us: contact@sevenswordsproductions.com. A person reads every message and answers it, and the fix goes into the next update.
