Fixed barcode scanner button for iOS 13. Updated cover capture and search result display on iPad.

UI Localization fixes for iPhone X

Update for the latest iPhone hardware. Updates in localizations. This is the last version that will be compatible with iOS 8. Next version will be iOS 11 and above only.

iOS 11 update. Sorting by my rating was grouping half stars with their full star counterpart. Custom names appear in the sort picker instead of custom 1, etc. Faster sync. Updates to German localizations. Bug fix: sorting by dates would sometimes exclude the first sections in rare occasions. Bug fix: some URL links might not appear under the links button.

When the sort title field and the option to ignore foreign articles where turned on, Pocketpedia would no longer ignore foreign articles when sorting title and thus not match the Pedia sorting.

Fixed: Sort ordering in Pocketpedia for numbers. Fixed: Ascending/descending sort reversal by selecting the same sort field. Fixed: Sort wheel now shows previous sort selected, which stopped working in iOS 8.1+. Fixed: With both “Sort Title" field and "ignore foreign articles” turned on, Pocketpedia would no longer ignore foreign articles when sorting titles and hence not match the Pedia’s sorting.

iPad version: removed iPhone-only “Add Item“ collection organizer option that caused crash on the iPad. Fixed: crash on iPad when adding an item and not currently in a collection. Fixed: width of sort sheet on iPad. Fixed: display of “Searching“, “No Results” and “Add Manually” on iPad results pop up.

That means this version will do a full cover sync for all users on the first sync after updating. Small adjustments in localizations and layouts. Bug fix: New internal links based on UID were not working. Bug fix: The Sync information dialog was not centered in landscape orientation.

iOS 8 compatibility. Internal links are now displayed as options in the link menu for fast navigation to other entries. Bug fix: if a collection was sorted by "date modified" in the Pedias it would cause a crash when trying to open sort options in Pocketpedia.

Bug fix: Adding an entry manually would not reload the table view when sorted by title to display the new entry in the correct section. Corrected French translation strings.

Updated iOS 7 UI look. Search media changes automatically when changing collections. Instead of the tab bar, entries are now added via the action button in each specific collection. (Both manual and online searches.) New entries are added to the selected collection automatically without prompting the user to select a collection after searching. My Rating can be updated while previewing the entry before an addition. Sort each collection by any field, with new scrolling picker view.

Internal search now searches individual words instead of entire phrases so search words do not to have to be in the same order as the matches. Bug fix: Editing an entry in a smart collection based on price or price paid would cause a crash once editing was finished and Pocketpedia checked to see if the entry still fit the smart collection.

Upgraded to new Doghouse search server. Bug fix: Could not click on media to change search after a "not found" result. Bug fix: iPad results pop up would not disappear automatically when tapping a result.

CD discID field now visible as an attribute in the details view.

Optimized for the taller iPhone 5: more space to display entries and collections. New barcode scan feature for devices with camera. Works as a remote barcode scanner for the Desktop Pedias when an iPad/iPhone/iPod Touch is connected to the same network as the Mac. New minimum version requirement: iOS 4.3 to support iPhone 5. Date formats used in the Pedia settings are now honored, for example to display theatrical date in the chosen format. The current synced Pedia sort is stored so that it can be selected again after sorting by one of the main attributes. For developers: new URL command "filterCollection?" brings up the filter field for the Library collection; will also accept a predefined search such as: "bookpedia://filterCollection?Tolkien". For developers: blank "search?" URL command brings up the Doghouse search field for text entry. Bug fix: A rare conflict connected to entries marked as returned could keep them marked as borrowed after a sync.

The borrowed by history from Pocketpedia is now synched backwards to the Pedias when an item is both borrowed and then returned in Pocketpedia before a sync.
