Original release notes
iYuanQu v1.3.0 Major Update This release focuses on calmer reading and freer listening: clearer handling of fragmentary texts, plus speech that can continue on the lock screen and in the background. 1. Smarter fragmentary text support: clearer badges and detail hints, with missing characters shown subtly and never inventively filled in. 2. Speech that respects lacunae: fully missing lyrics show a friendly notice; partial gaps are skipped so listening stays smooth. 3. Background playback: keep listening after leaving the app or locking the screen, with pause and resume from Control Center and the lock screen. 4. Adjustable speech rate and pitch: set the pace and tone that fit how you enjoy Yuanqu. 5. Independent Traditional Chinese glyphs: switch poem text to traditional characters without changing the app language. 6. Smoother work switching: previous and next return you to the top; continuous reading resume is more reliable. 7. Corpus refinements: OCR fixes and added pieces continue, including Shi Junbao's Ziyun Ting Liangzhou Seventh, for a more complete collection. We welcome your feedback and ratings. Every suggestion helps us keep refining iYuanQu.
