🪡 Improvements

  • Find and Replace now matches curly and straight apostrophes as the same character across every chapter, so searching for "don't" finds all of them wherever they are.

🪲 Bug Fixes

  • Your comments now come through a version restore safely.

  • The comments sidebar now refreshes the instant a restore finishes, so what you see always matches the page.

  • Deleting a comment now clears its highlight from the manuscript right away.

  • Renaming a note now sticks reliably, even when the same note is open on another device.

  • Dialogs now resize around the on-screen keyboard on tablets, so Save and Cancel are always reachable.

  • Dialogs sit comfortably clear of the status bar and Dynamic Island on iPhone.

âš¡ Performance

  • Searching a very large project now returns results faster, with a clear indicator when there are more matches than we can show at once.

🔒 Reliability & Security

  • Scheduled backups now rotate fairly through the queue, so every connected account gets its turn.

  • When Google Drive or Dropbox occasionally asks us to slow down, backups now wait before resuming.

🔭 Coming Soon

  • We've laid groundwork behind the scenes for the Planning tool, which is coming soon. In preparation:

    • Planning notes now show a double stroke on their chip and appear at the bottom of lists.

    • Planning notes now show a count in the note sidebar and can be collapsed.

    • You can now create planning notes that aren't linked to a section. These show in the sidebar no matter which section you're in, while linked planning notes only show in their relevant section.
