May 12, 2016

We've been working hard to bring you more great features for your comic reading experience. We have My Books improvements, sorting and filtering, and much more!

Your most requested feature is now here, My Books is more useful with some great new features. In "My Books On Device" you're now shown series and single issue books you own. Tap on a series to see which issues are on your device. You can now sort your On Device books by title or download date. Series and books you've downloaded but haven't read yet show a "New" badge to make finding them easier.

For all your "In The Cloud" viewing you'll also see the series you own issues along with single issue comics. Simply tap on a series and you'll see a filtered list of the issues you own. In The Cloud also allows you to sort on title to easier find what you're looking for. One more thing we've had on our list for a long time: you will now see free downloads in your In The Cloud books when signed in while downloading.

There are a bunch of new features and enhancements for the store experience too.
When looking at a series you have access to the same sorting and filtering as in My Books. Find issues you don't own and display issues in the newest-first or oldest-first easily and quickly.

We've put a few other new features into the app for you. The details of a single issue have been expanded to give you even more information about the comics you love to read. When you're reading and get to the end of a book we've made it even easier to see and get the next issue, keep the action going as fast as you can!

Key Points:
- My Books shows series you own issues in
- You can sort & filter series and My Books now!
- Single issue details are improved
- Getting to the next book while reading is better

As always we've worked hard to squash bugs along the way too. If you have issues please contact us at apps@idwpublishing.com and we'll get you taken care of as fast as possible. If you love reading in IDW Comics please take a moment to leave us a positive review on the App Store. We see them and they make us happy!
