What's new in this version: • Added support for iOS 27 and watchOS 27. • Apple Watch auto-scroll now intelligently pauses when the screen dims or enters the background, and automatically resumes on wake for smoother, more power-efficient reading. • Smoother Apple Watch auto-scroll with better hand and Digital Crown interaction, more reliable chapter endings, and preserved reading position. • Added optional stronger haptic feedback when auto-scroll pauses or resumes as the screen dims. • Improved book management with easier multi-selection for archiving, unarchiving, and deleting books. • Made book transfers safer: books currently being sent to Apple Watch can no longer be accidentally modified or deleted. • Improved email feedback: You can now easily copy diagnostic information if the Mail app cannot be opened, making it simpler to send feedback.
