Horizontal scrolling with animation and default setting.

In this new version, we've significantly improved how books are interacted with in our Reader. Now, when you turn pages horizontally, you'll enjoy a smooth animation that makes reading even more pleasant.

Additionally, we've optimized the touch-screen experience for swiping forward and backward, resulting in more natural and intuitive behavior. As part of this change, from this version onward, the default view when opening the reader will be horizontal scrolling one page at a time.

We believe this is how our users prefer to read, and we're very pleased with the experience it now offers.
