Download Reader.dmg, open it and drag Reader into Applications. Reader is ad-hoc signed and not notarized, so the first launch needs System Settings → Privacy & Security → Open Anyway. It runs on Apple silicon Macs with macOS 13 or later.

If you have Reader 0.3.3, its updater may fail with "Storage budget exhausted". Download this release once by hand; your library carries over, and updates work from 0.3.4 on.

Changed

  • The library has no size limit. Saving, importing, feed intake, magazine
    production and updates no longer fail with "Storage budget exhausted". The
    only size budget is the app: Reader.app must stay below 50 MB, and
    bundle.sh fails a bundle that is not. storage-audit reports library size
    and checks only the bundle.

Fixed

  • Install and Relaunch failed with "Storage budget exhausted" on libraries
    near the old 100 MB limit. Updates now download into the system temporary
    folder, check free disk space instead, and clean up on success and failure.
  • Reader no longer refuses to start when the app and library together pass
    100 MB, and the library database no longer stops growing at 26.5 MB.

Upgrading

  • Reader 0.3.3's updater can fail with "Storage budget exhausted", so 0.3.3
    users may need to download 0.3.4 once by hand. Updates work from 0.3.4 on.

Read-Later.dmg is the same disk image as Reader.dmg, under the old name so existing download links keep working.
