A completely redesigned tablet app, and copying text on Linux.
Download
| Linux (Ubuntu 22.04+, Debian 12+) | shelfsync_0.3.0_amd64.deb, then install with sudo apt install ./shelfsync_0.3.0_amd64.deb |
| Android (tablets and phones) | shelfsync-0.3.0.apk: open it on the device and allow installing from your browser or file manager |
Updating keeps your library, shelves and sign-in.
New on Android: a new design, top to bottom
- Opening the app: a dark ShelfSync splash, then your library fades in. No more white flash.
- Library:
- The book you're reading sits large at the top, glowing in its cover's own colour.
- When your PC got further, it says so ("You got to page 214 on your PC") and Continue opens there.
- Your other books in progress, shelves as cards showing their covers, and a 5-column cover grid.
- Books arriving from Google Drive hold their places while they sync.
- Shelves:
- Each shelf has its own page in its colour, with Reading, Not started and Finished filters.
- Create shelf with a name, a colour and a live preview of its card.
- Long-press a shelf to rename it, recolour it or delete it. Deleting has Undo, and the books always stay in your library.
- Long-press a book: its cover lifts, with Continue, shelf toggles, Rename (with suggested titles), Remove from this tablet and Select more books.
- Select several books and add them to a shelf, or create a new shelf for them on the spot.
- Reader:
- Floating bars that get out of the way: they hide 5 seconds after a book opens, then 3 seconds after each tap.
- A page slider with a dot for each chapter. It snaps onto chapter starts and shows a preview of the page under your finger.
- Paper, Sepia and Night page colours, and "N pages left in this chapter".
- A contents drawer showing the chapter you're in, how far through it you are, and its sections.
- When another device is ahead, a prompt shows both pages side by side so you can pick one.
- Account sheet: sync status, how many books and how much space you're using in Drive, and your devices.
- Welcome screen for first-time setup.
New on Linux
- Copy text from books: selecting text copies it straight away, Ctrl+C and Ctrl+A work, and a small "Copied" confirms it.
Fixes
- Books whose table of contents puts every chapter under one entry (usually the book's own title) now show the right chapter, chapter marks and "pages left in this chapter".
- Chapter titles written in capitals are shown as normal titles.
