Listing changes AppTracker has observed for this app in this storefront — new versions, price moves, rating shifts, and store copy.
Version history can now be searched. You remember writing a sentence — about a character, a decision, a name — and you remember deleting it. Until now the only way back was opening versions one at a time until you got lucky. Now you type the phrase and the history tells you which versions contain it, shows you the line in each one, and tells you the day it disappeared. Comparisons are down to the word. Change one sentence inside a long paragraph and you used to get the whole paragraph in red beside the whole paragraph in green, left to spot the difference yourself. Now only what actually changed is highlighted, inside the line, where you can read it. You can name a version and keep it. Call one "sent to my editor" and it stops ageing out — it stays as long as the document does, while everything around it prunes itself as usual. You can put any two versions side by side, not just a version against what you have today. Last Tuesday against last month, if that's the question. There's a line across the top of the history now, showing the document growing over time. It's the fastest way to find the day something big happened — the afternoon a chapter went in, or the morning it came out. And long documents no longer defeat the comparison. Past roughly two thousand lines the old one gave up and showed the entire document as deleted and rewritten, which is worse than useless on exactly the files that matter most. That limit is gone. The rest of this release: • Your history can leave. Export it as a folder with one file per version, or as a single document with the versions one after another. It's the answer to a fair question — what happens to all this if I stop using the app. • A panel of its own, under Settings. It shows how much space your history takes and across how many documents, lets you choose how long versions are kept, turns the word-by-word comparison off if you'd rather see whole lines, and can delete every history at once if you want the space back.
