What's new, as listeners will read it

Announcement title:

Highlights

New

• The Rest Is History, Darknet Diaries, Serial, Sherlock Holmes Short Stories and The Desi Crime Podcast have show pages in their own style: a gallery wall hung with the latest episodes, the show's flag-bearer with the flag waving, Serial's stack of cards dealt from its seasons, an 1891 Strand Magazine that opens to the stories read so far, and the hosts' crime board pinned with past cases. Each has its own moment when you subscribe.

Improved

• Conspiracy Theories' show page is now an evidence board, with the latest episodes pinned up and tied together with red yarn, on white paper by day and black by night.
• Show pages in a show's own style carry a "The best of boxlore" seal in place of the "Made for" tag. Tap it to find out what the page is.
• The late-night sleep timer prompt has a new look in your theme's colours: a night sky with a turning moon, and once you pick a time it shows when playback will pause.

Fixed

• On show pages, Select all selects every episode of the show instead of stopping at 100, and while you search it selects your search results. A selected episode on a show's own-style page now stays readable.
• Your monthly story with Echo opens again from Listening history instead of closing the app. Echo now lands smoothly between cards, the story fills the status and navigation bars, and its card's title no longer runs under the show covers.
• Tapping a link no app on your phone can open, like a host's page or a funding link, now says so instead of closing boxlore.
• Playback controls on the lock screen, in notifications and in Samsung's Now Bar show rewind, play and forward in that order, even when nothing is queued next, with a Next episode button beside them when there is.
• Fixed a crash that could close boxlore in the background while the player notification loaded an episode's artwork.
• Echo's occasional question about how likely you are to recommend boxlore reaches listeners it had been skipping since the last update. It can now also ask when you come back within a few hours of finishing an episode.

Announcement draft

boxlore v0.0.31 is here

• The Rest Is History, Darknet Diaries, Serial, Sherlock Holmes Short Stories and The Desi Crime Podcast have show pages in their own style: a gallery wall hung with the latest episodes, the show's flag-bearer with the flag waving, Serial's stack of cards dealt from its seasons, an 1891 Strand Magazine that opens to the stories read so far, and the hosts' crime board pinned with past cases. Each has its own moment when you subscribe.

Edit the wording in release-notes/v0.0.31.md and README What's New in this PR if anything needs changing.

Before merging

Release dry run builds this commit's optimized APK and Play bundle, with the new version code, and checks them. Merge once it passes.

On merge

The protected release job builds this exact merge commit, verifies versions and signing identity, then publishes the signed APK and AAB with checksums. If it fails, run Changelog and Release → publish-release again: it keeps the version and skips what is already done, and build_from: latest-master builds master once a fix has merged.

Review checklist

• Release dry run passed
• Gradle version transition is correct
• What's new reads well, highlights first
• The announcement draft is right
• Only Gradle, CHANGELOG, README and the release notes files changed
