It's a great app - quick, convenient, and allows for downloading from many different sources. However, I encountered quite a serious issue - during the last few months, the entire library got randomly deleted on three different occasions.

@Dominik Trunda Can you please describe here https://github.com/kiwix/kiwix-android/issues/4265 the scenarios when and how the library is randomly deleted?

Brilliant app in general but searching for anything is such a chore. Search in the library cannot be limited by the language, so I see Wikipedia in 200 languages. Search in the books themselves works weird? Sometimes it seems to be working only on pages, sometimes it doesn't show the pages? For example I search for "List of BBC radio stations" (existed in Jan 2024), and it offers no hits. Useless for the use with the document containing over 6 millions articles, right? Can't use it then :(

can't use external hard drive plugged into usb c port on my phone. I have all the Zim files on my hard drive but it won't let me view the files. this hard drive I'm using I want to be able to plug it into any device and the kiwix on that device will let me view them. phones don't have enough memory to hold all that you have and I'm not ok with just having a few files.

What's new

* Added support for Android 15.
* Currently downloading ZIM files will be shown at the top in "Online" Library screen.
* Added navigation history restoring feature, which restores the previously visited pages for an opened ZIM file, when reopening the application so that users can continue reading the Book where they left off.
* Improved the opening of ZIM files from USB stick and external hard drive.
