BookBuds: Read with friends — version history

We've been hard at work improving BookBuds. Here's what's new: NEW FEATURES • Custom Shelves — Organize your library your way. Create your own shelves, add and remove books, and arrange them in any order. • Dark Mode, now free for everyone — No paywall, no sign-in. Turn it on in Settings and it applies across the entire app and remembers your choice. • Profile & Avatars — Your finished books now appear in the order you finished them, and members without a profile photo get a clean, colorful initial avatar. READING TIMER & LIVE ACTIVITY • The session timer and the lock screen / Dynamic Island Live Activity are far more reliable when you switch apps, lose connection, or close the app. • The lock-screen timer now stays perfectly in sync with the in-app timer after you pause and resume. • New gap detection — if your phone dies or the app closes mid-session, you can choose how much of the missed time to count. FRIENDS & PRESENCE • Friends who are online or actively reading now stay visible around the Campfire without flickering or disappearing when your connection drops. ACCOUNTS & NOTIFICATIONS • A smoother, more reliable sign-up with Apple and phone/SMS, plus better international phone number support. • Fixed an issue where a brief network hiccup could log you out and bounce you back to onboarding. • More reliable push notifications that open the right screen when tapped. Plus lots of behind-the-scenes work to make BookBuds faster and more stable. Happy reading!
