Listing changes AppTracker has observed for this app in this storefront — new versions, price moves, rating shifts, and store copy.
Page turns now have a look you choose — none, slide, fade, or page curl, with slide as the default. Two-page view gains a single-page advance, so you can shift the spread by one when a cover throws the pairing off. Auto-scroll finally uses the full refresh rate on ProMotion (120Hz) iPhones and holds a steady speed even when a frame slips; on Mac it follows your display. With Reduce Motion on, the effects ease off by themselves.
