Reading Queue is now Quiche Reader!

FIXED • The Dynamic Island was overlapping with the information in the title bar.

FIXED • The read time estimation sometimes disappeared after manually reloading an article.

CHANGED • The read time is now calculated with a speed of 240 words per minute, instead of 275, giving numbers closer to read times on Medium. FIXED • The read time estimation was not available on some websites. • Tapping a link to an App Store page triggered an error instead of opening the App Store app. • Tapping a link to a non-HTTP URL (mailto:, tel:, or custom app schemes) triggered an error instead of opening the associated app. • App Store pages saved to queue showed a blank screen. • Non-HTTP URLs saved to queue showed a blank screen. • Favicons were not displayed on some websites. • Black favicons with transparent backgrounds were not visible.

NEW • All saved and archived pages can be exported as text, HTML, or Markdown. From the Settings screen, scroll to the bottom and tap “Export Data.”

FIXED • The current article could sometimes disappear after cancelling an archive gesture. • App launches were taking longer as the size of the queue grows. (Thank you Chris!) • The Archive screen could not be dismissed under certain conditions.

FIXED • Reading a page from the Archive was crashing the app.

NEW • You can now delete multiple pages at once in the Archive with a two-finger pan gesture.

Performance improvements.

FIXED • To prevent overlapping with the new multitasking menu on iPadOS 15, the page title is now aligned to the left of the screen.

NEW • The app has been completely redesigned. • The estimated reading time is back. • The reading progress is preserved after leaving the app. • The current article can be deleted from the menu. • Infinite undo: you can now undo all archive, delete, or snooze actions, until the app is closed. CHANGES • No need to pull up the menu to reveal all actions anymore. • Alerts now encourage you to delete old articles, instead of archiving them. • Google Analytics has been removed. FIXED • In the menu, buttons sometimes responded only after the second tap. (If you miss this very old and infuriating bug, send me a message and I’ll consider re-adding it.) • Tapping a link was replacing the original page in queue. • Disabling JavaScript in settings did not properly apply to the current article. • The settings screen could sometimes not be closed with a swipe down gesture. • The share extension didn’t work properly in some conditions.

Big news! You can finally read your queue and archive on desktop, with the shiny new Reading Queue for Mac available on the Mac App Store. NEW • If you notice sync issues between your devices, you can attempt to fix them with a force sync from the Settings screen. FIXED • A very unpleasant sync issue where a page you archived was added back to the queue.

NEW • iPad users get a customized first-time experience. CHANGES • The icons for the "Open in Safari/Chrome" actions in the share menu have been adjusted to fit the new iOS 13 style. FIXED • The overlay behind the share extension screen had a minor visual glitch. Easy fix: I removed the overlay.

NEW • First-time users will see a redesigned first time experience, with videos showcasing the app’s features. • Many icons were updated to the new ones provided by Apple to developers. • A new contextual menu will appear when long-pressing a link in a web page. • On iPad, you can now drag and drop links to another app. CHANGES • The share extension screen is now smaller and less intrusive, and disappears immediately when touching the screen. (Thank you Francisco and Damiano!) To make further development easier and faster, Reading Queue now requires iOS 13. However, you can keep using Reading Queue 1.3 on your devices on iOS 12.

iPad support and iCloud sync! A lot of work went into this release, and I would love to hear your feedback. Feel free to reach out to me directly from the Settings screen, by email, Twitter, Instagram or App Store reviews. I’m a very nice guy and I answer every message! Thank you :) NEW • iPad devices are now fully supported, included Slide Over and Split View modes. This means that while reading you can take notes in another app (gooood) or browse Twitter (baaaad.) • Your queue and archived pages are now backed up and synced across all your iPhone and iPad devices where Reading Queue is installed. Two very important notes about this: 1. All your data is stored ENCRYPTED in your PRIVATE iCloud space, which means that ONLY YOU and NO ONE ELSE can access them, not even Apple or the developer of this app (THAT'S ME.) 2. From the Settings screen, you can turn this off and erase everything from your private iCloud space. • The next page in the queue is now preloaded in a more power efficient way, putting page rendering and web animations on hold until it appears on screen. • All gestures and transitions between pages (when archiving, snoozing, etc.) have been rebuilt or improved, thanks to a new animation engine rewritten from the ground up. CHANGED • So it turns out that the read time calculation left for summer holidays without leaving a note. Unfortunately, the third-party service Reading Queue was using to process web pages content has been shut down, which took me off guard. Rest assured read time calculation will be back and even better in a future release. My sincere apologies for this mishap. • When long-pressing a link to add it to the queue, the notification banner is more readable. • On iPhone X, XR and XS devices, if “Taller Content Area” is disabled in Settings, you can scroll back to top with a single tap at the top of the screen, instead of two. (Merci Riomar!) FIXED • The joy-sparking alerts recommending to throw away an old page were reappearing every time the app was resumed or the settings screen dismissed. Gosh that was annoying. • During introduction, the instructions displayed on top of the share menu were cut off for owners of the cute iPhone SE, but they are now scrollable. • The Undo menu item was always on even when unarchiving was not possible. • The Archive screen was crashing the app in some conditions, which, admit it, was pretty entertaining.

Minor design fix.

FIXED • URLs containing accented characters could not be loaded or saved from the share extension. • Using the share extension in Feedly was freezing the app. • The Help and What’s New pages were sometimes not properly refreshed.

Mostly changes under the hood in this release, to prepare for the upcoming iCloud sync and desktop browser extensions (finally) coming in May. NEW • Pages saved from the share extension are now added to the BOTTOM of the queue. Let's get rid of our oldest saved pages! Pages saved before this update will not be reordered. • A page cannot be added twice to the queue anymore. • The total read time is calculated a bit faster. • Minor design and copy changes, notably “Read Next” was renamed to “Move to Archive.” FIXED • The page title did not update properly on some websites like Medium or YouTube. • The settings screen would hang or crash while calculating the total read time. • And as if this was not enough already, an ugly memory leak was discovered.

Fixed a very embarrassing issue where the third and last screen of the first-time experience was not displayed after enabling the share extension.

This release adds new ways to encourage you to get rid of the pages you procrastinate NOT reading, among other niceties. NEW • Pages can now be snoozed only up to three times. • A nudge message is displayed to encourage archiving pages saved more than 30 days ago. • An URL copied from another app can be added directly to the queue, without using the share menu. • Pages can be opened in Safari or Chrome from the share menu, if you’re into that kind of thing. • The help page lists up all the different ways to add pages from Safari, Chrome, Apple Mail, Twitter, and Facebook. • The preferred text size defined in iOS Settings is applied throughout most parts of the app. • The first-time experience has been completely revamped for new users (ie. this is not you.) FIXED • The settings screen could sometimes crash when calculating the total read time. Surprisingly, this was not intended. • Some buttons in the settings screen were not properly aligned and sometimes their color changed after tapping them. The nightmare is over now.

Minor changes.

Some confusing parts of the first-time experience were improved or removed.

Read Next gesture and animation are now smooth as butter.
