Original release notes

Scans that read the room, plus swipe between documents.

- Swipe between documents — while viewing a scan, swipe left or right to move to the next or previous document in the same folder, following your sort order.
- Smarter scan cleanup — every page is measured before anything is changed, so a dim room, warm indoor light or an uneven shadow gets corrected while an already-good page is left alone.
- Faded ink survives — bleaching rides the page's own measured paper white instead of a fixed threshold, so pencil notes, watermarks, faint stamps and thermal receipts keep their detail in both colour and black & white.
- Auto-enhance now governs imports too — with it off, a photo you import is stored exactly as you chose it; with it on, it gets the same cleanup a scan does.
- Faster launches and faster saves, especially on large libraries.
- Sharing a photo into Paperix from another app now respects your Black & White and Auto-enhance settings.
- Tapping "Make searchable" now updates the document straight away, instead of still reporting no recognized text until the next launch.
- Deleting one of two identical documents no longer removes the other one's AI search data.
- Fixed scans under warm lighting coming out more yellow after cleanup instead of less.

Everything still runs on device. No accounts, no cloud, no tracking.
