What's changed

Libro.fm

  • Get books from Libro.fm. Connect a Libro.fm account, browse and search your purchases, and import them straight into the server library. M4B is preferred, with an MP3 archive fallback; downloads are validated and never overwrite existing books. Tokens stay on the server and each reader's catalog is kept separate.
  • Download to this device, no server needed. On iOS and Android, Get books → Libro.fm can send purchases to the on-device library, including local-library mode. Transfers run in the background, recover when the app returns, and can be cancelled or retried. Device tokens live in the iOS Keychain or Android Keystore and never reach the web layer.
  • Library and Get books replace the old source tabs, with an Audible / Libro.fm selector. An optional owner-configured watched folder still imports existing DRM-free downloads.
  • See docs/libro.md for setup and privacy details. Libro.fm's app API is unofficial and may change upstream.

Landscape layouts

  • iPhone landscape: Games put the board or keyboard under the thumb, the Ledger sets totals beside the listening calendar, and Settings flow into two columns.
  • iPad landscape: Games, a compact Ledger dashboard, two-column Settings, and headings raised beside the floating tab bar.
  • Shelf as a book wall: a two-line toolbar and tighter cover grid, with progress shown as a gold rule on the cover and a ribbon for finished books. On iPad the shelf can be hidden or widened to fill the screen.
  • Administration keeps its section list fixed while the chosen section scrolls beside it.

Fixes

  • iPad's floating tab bar is tappable again, and pages no longer run underneath it.

  • The iPad shelf header wraps its actions instead of clipping them, and the blurred clock band is gone on iPad.

  • Read-along no longer pulls a page you turned by hand back to the narrated page.

  • Read-along recognises arcing thumb swipes and short flicks as page turns.

Downloads

The easy way (macOS and Linux)

One command downloads the right package for your computer, verifies its SHA-256 digest, walks you through setup, and starts the server — and updates an existing installation in place when run again:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DonovanMontoya/OperaLibre/main/script/install.sh | sh

Add | sh -s -- --help to see its options, including --server-only for headless machines.

Which file should I download?

  • Most people: download a combined package for your computer. It includes the server and web app, starts in the background, and opens in your browser without leaving a Terminal window open.
  • Server only: download a server package when the frontend will be hosted separately or you are using another client.
  • Frontend only: download the file ending in frontend.zip when you already have an OperaLibre or Jellyfin server and want to deploy only the static web app.
  • Android: the file ending in android-unsigned.apk is an unsigned release build for developers or distributors to sign before installation.
  • Update packages: files containing update are downloaded and verified automatically by compatible combined and server-only installations; you normally do not need to download them yourself.
  • Deployment profiles: new installs start in local mode. Choose lan for a trusted LAN/VPN or proxy behind same-machine HTTPS; remote first-run setup uses a one-time server token.
  • Transfer limits: uploads, generated ZIP downloads, and simultaneous ZIP generation now have configurable server-side limits. Existing configs automatically receive safe defaults.

Choose windows-x64 for a 64-bit Windows PC, linux-x64 for a typical Intel/AMD Linux server, linux-arm64 for a 64-bit ARM Linux server or Raspberry Pi, macos-arm64 for an Apple Silicon Mac, or macos-x64 for an Intel Mac.

Every user-facing installation package contains a START-HERE.txt file. The SHA256SUMS.txt attachment can be used to verify downloaded files.

Administrators are notified in the app when a newer release is available. On combined and server-only release installations, an owner can install the matching verified package from Administration — server-only installations update just the server and leave a custom frontend untouched; other custom deployments use the release link for a manual update.

New users can follow the full release installation guide for first launch, adding books, phone access, backups, and updates.
