  • Per-page Scribe notebook templates and an advanced notebook template selector.
  • Enhanced Manga navigation: "For faster navigation, press-and-hold page turning in Manga has been replaced by Page Flip. To use Page Flip, tap the icons in the bottom navigation toolbar."
  • Pinyin deprecation, affects reader and Aa menu.
  • Changes related to book synchronization. (Why they haven't been able to get it right after all this time is a mystery.)
  • Changes related to the handling of page numbers.
  • Possible selective export of notebook pages.
  • Updates to chromium web browser.
  • Changes to asset management related to types of content on the device and its organization.
  • A process named Minerva for recording and reporting metrics to Amazon.
  • An app watchdog for the main interface application, possibly to help detect failures.
Do you see all these from looking at code or is there a somewhere that lists changes. Because like everyone else I only see it saying the usual bug updates. Is there one that lists android updates too
