April 12, 2026
What's New in Version 1.1 • AI Summaries — Tap "Summarize abstract" on any paper to get a concise 3-sentence summary. Uses Apple Intelligence on supported devices; works everywhere with smart sentence extraction. • Smarter Recommendations — "More like this" now shows richer cards with authors, source, publication date, citation count, and matching topic tags — making it easier to discover your next read. • Improved Ranking — Faster recency decay tuned for fast-moving AI research, continuous engagement scoring, and centralized ranking weights for better calibration. • Better arXiv Reliability — Merged category fetches to halve API calls, per-session request budget to prevent rate limiting, and cache-aware refresh that skips unnecessary fetches. • UI Polish — Fixed text wrapping issues, reduced oversized icons, consistent styling across all views, and improved layout on smaller screens. • Under the Hood — Tag classification rules externalized for easier updates, 147 unit tests, and stability improvements.
