Popular E-Reading App Readmill Gains Support For Mentions And Sepia Mode
February 5, 2014
The acclaimed e-reading app Readmill has received yet another update on iOS.
One of the notable additions brought about by the update is support for @mentions in comments, enabling you to share or discuss a book with a friend on Readmill. Now, when you comment on a highlight or a review, you can mention someone by typing "@" followed by the first few letters of his or her name and choosing from the list of suggested friends.
Another notable enhancement is the new sepia mode, which makes for a more comfortable reading experience. Like the existing day and night modes, the new sepia mode can be selected in the "Aa" menu.
In addition to introducing sepia mode, the update brings improvements to night mode, according to the Readmill team:
Thanks to our new Sepia mode, the reading experience is more comfortable than ever. Its reduced contrast is wonderfully easy on the eyes. Night mode also gets an upgrade with an improved highlight view, so you can transition seamlessly back to your reading.Also including some bug fixes, the new version of Readmill is available now in the App Store for free. The app is compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad running iOS 6.0 or later.
