What's new in Inkora

Read your book one page at a time

The book preview no longer scrolls forever. Your cover and chapters are laid out as pages, so a 50-page chapter is 50 slides you turn through.

• Turn pages with the Left and Right arrow keys, swipe on a phone or trackpad, or use the arrows at the sides.
• A slider and a "Page 3 of 30" counter show where you are and let you jump anywhere.
• Every chapter starts on a fresh page, and the Contents menu jumps straight to a chapter.
• Pages follow the page size, font and theme you chose for your manuscript.

The visibility setting now says who can read your chapters

Under a book's visibility menu you now see exactly who can open and read it. Public stories can be read by anyone; community and unlisted stories by signed-in members; private stays yours alone.

Your canvas is saved

Boards and canvases in your book now keep their layout between visits.

Writing goals

Set a word goal and watch your progress build up as you write.

Version history

Chapters keep earlier versions, so you can look back at, and return to, what you had before.

Interactive world map

Upload a map of your world, then place a pin for each location. Click a pin to jump to that place's page.

Character arcs

Plan and track how a character changes, with a Planned and an Observed track tied to chapters.

Connected locations

Link places with routes and passages. Location pages also show the objects and events that happen there.

Relationship graph

See all your characters and how they relate on one map, with canon and draft links marked.

Book workspace navigation

The twelve-item book menu was reorganised around Write, Think, Build and Connect, so you can find things without a long row to scroll.

Objects, factions and world rules

Track important items, groups and the rules of your world, each with its own pages. They're part of what the AI knows about your story.

Ask Inkora

Ask questions about your own story ("when did Mara first meet Voss?") and get answers grounded in your characters, places and chapters.

Canon vs. draft

Mark story facts as canon or still just a draft idea, so the continuity checker and Ask Inkora know what's settled.

Export your book

Export your manuscript in several formats and publish settings, ready to share outside Inkora.

A rich-text manuscript editor

Write in a real editor with bold, italic, underline, headings, quotes, lists and undo/redo, all with keyboard shortcuts. Word and character counts update as you type.

• Chapters are saved as you write.

AI help that never writes for you

Brainstorm, get unstuck, or have your continuity checked. The assistant reads your story bible so it knows your world, but it only offers directions and notes. Nothing is ever put into your manuscript automatically.

• AI credits are tracked per plan so you always know what's left.

Story bible: characters, places and timeline

Each book has a place for its characters, locations and timeline events, so the facts of your world live next to your chapters.

Read stories chapter by chapter

Every shared story has a page with a Start reading button, a reading-time estimate and a chapter list, and the same page-turning view as the preview.

• Readers choose a light, sepia or dark page, a serif or sans font and the text size.
• It reopens where the reader stopped, and the end of a chapter moves on to the next.
• Chapters you've only planned, or that are still empty, are never shown.

Story links open the story itself

Story cards in Community, and books attached to posts, now open the story page for community and unlisted books too, instead of the author's profile.

A fresh look for Community

Community pages share one look now, from the feed to groups, challenges and discussions.

• A new tab bar with icons; on a phone it scrolls sideways.
• Page headers with a clearer title and divider.
• Posts have proper like, comment, save and share buttons, and the like and save buttons fill in when active.
• Cards for stories, groups, challenges, writers and discussions look like one family and lift when you hover.
• Icons replace emoji, and empty pages show a round icon badge.

Community Home

A landing page with writers to follow, stories to read, active discussions, challenges and groups.

Writing challenges, entries and winners

Take part in challenges, submit a story, and see results announced with judges and winners.

Discussions and Saved

Start or join discussion threads, and bookmark posts and stories to find them again later.

Groups

Join groups of writers around a genre or interest and post inside them.

Public story pages and book visibility

Choose Private, Unlisted, Community or Public for each book. Public stories get a page anyone can open, even without an account.

Reporting

You can report posts or people that break the community guidelines.

XP, levels and achievements

Writing earns XP, levels and achievements, such as completing your profile. Your progress shows on your profile.

Community: posts, comments, likes and follows

Share posts with images, comment, like and follow other writers. A feed brings it all together.

Animated backgrounds, spinning frames and 100+ new cosmetics

Profiles can now move. Backgrounds and banners have live scenes, avatar frames can spin or pulse, and the shop has a lot more to wear.

• Animated scenes: falling snow and petals, rain, embers, aurora, drifting nebulae, rolling waves, a neon grid, code rain and rising bubbles.
• Spinning and pulsing ring frames around your portrait. Many existing backgrounds and frames were upgraded, and you keep everything you already own.
• New username effects: rainbow, glitch and neon flicker.
• More free items, more included with Pro, and many new pieces that are only sold in Inkora Market.
• Six matching packs that cost less than buying each piece.
• Everything holds still if you have reduced motion turned on.

Profile Studio is now four pages

Start, Profile Editor, My Library and Inkora Market each have their own page, so each does one job.

• Start explains how the editor works.
• My Library shows only what you own, with Favorites and Recently added as small tabs.
• Trying something on now briefly takes off what you're wearing in that slot before the new piece appears.

Item details open as a popup in Profile Studio

Picking an item in Profile Studio opens its details right on screen, with Try on and Select, instead of adding a panel further up the page.

• Press Esc or click outside to close it.
• On a phone it slides up from the bottom.

Profile Studio

One place to try on cosmetics, preview your profile and choose what you wear.

Redesigned profiles

Public profiles have a new layout showing your books, posts and level, and are easier to personalise.

Cosmetics and the Store

Collect frames, banners, titles and other items, earned or bought in the Store, and show them off on your profile.

InkoriaWiki, redesigned

The wiki is easier to browse and search, with a new home page and a clearer reading layout.

• A big search box on the home page that highlights what matched.
• Topic cards, a sidebar to browse by category, and a table of contents inside each article.
• Reading times, and previous and next links at the end of an article.

InkoriaWiki

Guides to every part of Inkora, searchable and free to read, growing as the app does.

• Dozens of articles covering getting started, the story bible, community, privacy and more.

A calmer background on every page

The glowing blobs in the corners of pages, which could make a page look cut off, are gone. A soft, slow-moving light now sits behind every page and never ends in an edge. If you've asked your device to reduce motion, it stays still.

The new main menu

One menu for everything: My Dashboard, Community, Studio, Wiki and more, with a command palette for jumping anywhere fast.

Privacy and security review

A full review of who can see what, with stricter access rules across the app.

Download your data or delete your account

Export everything you've written and made in one file, or delete your account from settings.

A consistent look across Inkora

Ink and paper colours, brass accents and consistent cards, empty states and loading screens across the app.

A new homepage

The landing page was rebuilt to explain what Inkora is, with a new hero and a diagram of how characters turn into stories.

Notifications

A bell shows new likes, comments, follows and more, with a page to read them all.

Navigation that works on a phone

A menu button on small screens replaces the long row of links, so every page is reachable on mobile.

Image uploads

Upload your avatar, book covers and post images straight from your device.

Profile settings

Edit your display name, username, bio, country, website, avatar and favourite genres, and choose whether your profile is public or private.

Plans and billing

Free, Pro and Author plans with monthly AI credits and book limits, paid by card, with a billing page to manage it.
