@github-actions github-actions released this 20 Jul 07:38

Unsigned .ipa for sideloading (AltStore / Sideloadly / TrollStore).

Requires iOS 26 or later. On anything older the install fails with an unhelpful error rather than saying why.

iOS can't install this directly — see the README for how to sideload it and re-sign it with your own Apple ID.

About this release

1.3.6 is a performance pass. If you have a large library — especially covers loaded from a folder or file server — the app could grow sluggish the more you browsed, and the Paper Effect sliders in particular felt laggy. Each cause was tracked down and fixed, so the app now stays responsive no matter how many comics you have.

What changed

  • Fixed an app-wide slowdown after browsing a large library. The tab bar was keeping every browse tab's comic query loaded at once; with many comics that resident background work dragged the whole app down — noticeable even on unrelated controls like the Paper Effect sliders, and worse the bigger your library. Each tab (Recents / Library / Bookmarks) now loads its comics only while you're actually on it, so at most one query is live at a time.
  • Kept the Paper Effect sliders smooth. The live preview re-rendered the effect on every tiny slider movement — dozens of GPU renders a second that piled up on smaller devices. It now updates once you settle on a value.
  • Lower memory for covers, sharper carousel art. Bounded the decoded-cover cache and free each cover as it scrolls off, so a big library no longer pins a growing pile of images. The Discover/Recents carousel decodes each cover to its real on-screen size — crisp where it counts, lighter everywhere else.
  • Smoothed the reader's control bars fading out. They now fade one glass control at a time instead of the whole bar as a single group, avoiding a per-frame backdrop redraw that dropped frames on high-refresh displays.
