What's New in Witbound

1.8.10

October 12, 2026

Highlights you make now keep their punctuation. Quote marks, exclamation and question marks and the full stop stay with the words you highlight, in your notebook and wherever you export or share them. Reading without audio: the headphones on the reading bar now start the narration on the page you are reading, and the page stays where it is when the player comes back. If nothing from that page on is narrated, Witbound tells you. The reading bar's headphones button is smaller and quieter, so it no longer gets in the way of the page.

Will buy and recommend to friends if you add download from my computer via 192.168.1.blah. I listen to audiobooks every day and would like to read along for history books and proper names, dates etc. much easier to dl from computer.

Response from developer

thanks, this is on the list. pulling an epub and audiobook over from a computer on the same network is exactly the kind of thing i want to add next. until then the Files app, AirDrop from a Mac, or an Audiobookshelf server all get books in. if you try it with a history book and the names or dates don't land, email me at hello@witbound.app
