Content warnings in one box, and one age check

Version 1.0.133 · September 17, 2026

Release 1.0.133.

  • A series, book or chapter that carries AI, mature or content warnings now opens with a box at the top listing them, grouped by where they are set: the series itself, books in it, or some of its chapters. The card that asked you to allow or hide each item is gone.
  • The first page you open holding mature or content-warned work asks once whether you are 18 or older. Signed in, the answer stays on your account; signed out, it is kept for an hour and moves onto your account when you sign in.
  • Hiding a content type on the Account page now also hides a series when the type is only on one of its books or chapters.
  • The box appears for mature and AI-generated work even when there are no content warnings on it, which it did not before.

Account page saves keep your content warning answers

Version 1.0.132 · September 16, 2026

Release 1.0.132.

  • Saving the Account page no longer forgets a content warning choice you made with Continue. In 1.0.131 a save could make the card ask about mature or AI content again.

A warning before flagged content, and everything shown by default

Version 1.0.131 · September 16, 2026

Release 1.0.131.

  • Adult and AI-written content is shown by default again. The account setting from 1.0.130 that hid both is off for everyone.
  • The first time you open a series, book or chapter marked AI-generated or mature (18+), or carrying a content warning, a card lists what it contains. Continue opens it and remembers your choice, Go back returns you, and Hide some of this in future lets you pick what to hide from then on.
  • Your choices are saved on your account, or in your browser for one hour when you are not signed in, and move to your account when you sign in.
  • A page that contains something you chose to hide still opens from a direct link, with a reminder at the top and a link to the Account page.
  • The Terms of Service now say that covers and titles, which everyone sees before any warning, must not be graphic.

Adult and AI content hidden by default

Version 1.0.130 · September 16, 2026

Release 1.0.130.

  • Every account now hides adult content and AI-written content unless you turn those on yourself. Existing accounts have been set the same way. Both settings are on the Account page under Content Preferences.

Chapter pages land on the title

Version 1.0.129 · September 16, 2026

Releases 1.0.124 to 1.0.129.

  • After a swipe, an arrow key or the Previous and Next links, the new chapter opens with its title at the top of the screen, so you carry on reading without scrolling past the share buttons.
  • The share buttons on a chapter now sit above the chapter title, under the breadcrumb.
  • The text-to-speech player is smaller and takes one row. Its Play button works again on a chapter you reached by swiping or by the Next link.
