This update brings improvements to reliability and everyday use. • More reliable auto-lock When you use up the time you earned from reading, your selected apps now re-lock automatically—even if ReadTime isn't open. Locking is based on the time you actually spend in those apps, so it's easier to avoid overdoing it. • No more duplicate books Books already on your shelf now show as "In your library," so you won't accidentally add the same book twice. • Smoother barcode adding Tap "Done" after scanning to jump right back home, with your newly added book front and center. • Various bug fixes and stability improvements. Thank you for using ReadTime. We'd love to hear your feedback!

Momentum comes from crawler snapshots for the tracked storefront. “Viral growth signal” means unusually fast recent rating gains; it is an indicator, not download data.
