Tarumi v1.6.3
Tarumi v1.6.3 is a stability and polish update for the release channel. It improves Omega Scans / HeanCMS reading, home recommendations, chapter list navigation, notifications layout, Continue Reading controls, and the splash animation.
Package: com.tarumi.reader · Version: 1.6.3 (versionCode 2169)
Artifact: app-release.apk (minified, obfuscated, signed with the same Tarumi release certificate as v1.6.2)
Users already on v1.6.2 can update in place. If you are still on an old debug build (app-debug.apk / com.tarumi.reader.debug), uninstall that package first, create a data backup, then install this release.
📖 Omega Scans & HeanCMS — pages loading
- Fixed a common failure where chapter images showed “Content not found or removed” even though pages were available on the website.
- Especially affected older completed titles (for example A Wonderful New World, Panty Note, Intern Haenyeo) after early chapters.
- Cause: free chapters on Next.js HeanCMS sites no longer expose classic
<img>tags; images ship as preload links and embedded media URLs. - Fix: the parser now reads preload links and series upload URLs as fallbacks, so pages load correctly in Tarumi.
🏠 Home recommendations (Manga Plus EN)
- Fixed empty Manhua / Manga / Smart recommendation rails.
- Manga Plus is a single-page source (
offset > 0always returned empty). Home now loads the full English ranking and slices different cards per rail in memory.
🔔 Notifications & chapter list
- Opening the chapter list from notifications (and related flows) now starts at the top of the list, not the middle or bottom.
- Notifications screen layout improved for real devices:
- Header respects the status bar / cutouts
- Cards and action chips fit more cleanly without overflow
- Title no longer collides with the NEW badge
- Action buttons are tappable and balanced
⚙️ Continue Reading visibility
- New setting: Settings → Appearance → Performance → Continue Reading on Home
- Turn it off to hide the Continue Reading section on Home (reading history is still saved).
✨ Splash animation
- Removed the Android navigation button bar that was baked into the intro video.
- Video is cropped and center-cropped on screen so the animation sits centered on the device.
- First-frame placeholder updated to match the cropped clip.
📦 Build
- Bumped Tarumi to
1.6.3(versionCode2169). - Ships as
app-release.apk, signed with the same release keystore as v1.6.2. - Release build remains minified, resource-shrunk, and R8-obfuscated.
💡 Tips
- If an Omega Scans chapter still fails once, pull to refresh or re-open the chapter so the new page extractor runs.
- Prefer this GitHub
app-release.apk(or the official Discord link) over old debug APKs. - Community & support: https://discord.gg/hVr5KNQRnk
