Boox Rich Annotations v1.2.0

Release Date: June 15, 2026

What's New

Format Detection & Book Metadata Improvements

  • Accurate Format Detection: Book format (epub, pdf, mobi, azw, azw3, djvu, etc.) is now extracted directly from the filename instead of idString
  • Total Pages Support: Added totalPages field to exported JSON, parsed from the progress field in book metadata
  • Better Title Display: Title now prioritizes the title field, with smart fallback to name field (with file extensions stripped)
  • All Format Support: Removed format restrictions - now shows all books with annotations regardless of file type

Bug Fixes

  • Missing Books Fixed: Previously, books with annotations weren't appearing because of format filtering (e.g., PDF books were excluded)
  • Format Showing as "unknown": Fixed by using the name field directly instead of idString

Download
