Rebuilt completely from the ground up! Our latest generation book reader is a major leap forward:
- Audio Playback: Our app's most significant update is the custom audio playback functionality. Each book includes streamed audio, enhanced with new controls: play, pause, timeline scrub, looping, and speed control (without altering pitch). Playback now seamlessly spans multiple pages, ideal for charts and exercises extending beyond one page.
- Purchase Sync: The second major change is automatic sync for in-app purchases on iOS or other platforms with your HudsonMusic.com account. This feature lets you access your purchases on any supported device, including our web-based reader. This addresses the top customer query: how to access mobile purchases on a computer. Now, if you buy directly at HudsonMusic.com, you can instantly access your book on any reader app or web browser.
- Speed: The app is now twice as efficient, with the Shop and Catalog screens loading 20% faster and books loading 90% faster. Media is delivered via edge CDN servers globally, ensuring faster and more reliable audio and video streaming.
- Search: Every book now features an in-app search. Simply tap the search icon, start typing, and get a comprehensive index list to navigate quickly.
- Renamed Screens: We’ve made navigation clearer by renaming "Shop" to "Buy" and "Bookshelf" to "Read."
- Shop and Bookshelf Search: Easily search our catalog or your owned books by title, author, style, skill level, or publisher. No more endless scrolling to find what you need.
- Navigation: The Shop catalog now only displays books you don’t own, while the Bookshelf shows only your owned books, making navigation cleaner and less confusing.
- Table of Contents: Each book now has a consistent app-based table of contents for easy navigation.
- Bookmarking: Bookmark pages within the app to quickly access favorite sections, exercises, lessons, and charts.
- Improved Zoom: Double-tap to zoom in on a page, or use granular zoom controls for precise adjustments.
- Account Info: View and manage your account details directly within the app, including password reset options.
- Support: Access common support questions within the app. If you need further assistance, a direct contact option is available.
