Original release notes

What's new in this update:

• Scout a shelf — point your camera at any bookstore or thrift-shop shelf and instantly see which books are worth grabbing for your taste, with one tap to save them.

• Librarian's picks — book recommendations right on your home and Librarian screens. Tap a pick for details and a description, browse by category, or search the whole catalog.

• Want list — a wishlist for books you don't own yet. Add picks and scouted finds, then mark them owned when you get them.

• A fresh, more readable design — bigger, warmer type across book pages, summaries, and your margin notes.

• A new welcome screen to help you get started faster.

• Fixes and polish: a cleaner book-detail menu, larger margin notes, and more reliable Librarian chat for big libraries.
