Limitations:
Reader title cannot be hidden as Kodular does not support overlapping components (Might have a solution)
Had a hard time trying to show titlebar icons and add option menu items at the same time
Dynamic images does not have any events like on image loaded making it impossible for me to know whether all the images loaded successfully
App font not consistent because not all kodular components with text support typeface import
New guest mode with limited functionality (search, manga and scanlator group info, read manga)
Cover art is now available (yay, no more placeholder images)
Changes:
Follow list can now display more than 100 followed manga in the list
Block optimization to reduce number of blocks
Optimizations to manga reader with significant RAM reduction (No more webviews for image rendering)

Notes:
Currently planning to make an extension to improve the manga reader and include features such as reporting md@home stats to Mangadex (No personal info will be collected)
I will be removing v1.0 - v2.0.4 due to outdated API implementation
New in v2.1.1.4 (19) This version drops support for Android versions 5, 6 and 7.0. Sorry for the disappointment! I will try to find a way to regain support for older devices.
