Apple has updated its iBooks iOS app to version 1.5, and it's absolutely gorgeous! I'm gonna just bring you through some of the breakthrough features. The first beautiful feature is the new Night theme, which turn your screen dark and the words white, allowing you to focus on the words while you read in low light condition. This feature is great and would help Apple to win more hardcore ebook readers. NeXT, is the improved font choices. There are now 7 fonts in total. New fonts introduced are "Athelas", "Charter", "Iowan", and "Seravek". An even bigger surprise is that iBooks app now features full screen view which give you more reading pleasure by eliminating the upper black bar that shows internet connection signal, time and battery percentage. Further improvement would be a redesigned annotation palette, giving you more selection of colours for your text highlight. Users who like to insert footnotes in their e-book will also be happy, as a brand new pop-up footnote can now be inserted into the pages of your ePub books. And lastly, for users who buy their iPad mainly because of the built-in dictionary feature in iBooks app, I can ensure you that you will be even more delightful, as with this update, you can now do further definition search by tapping on either the "Search Web" or "Search Wikipedia" button.
Verdict: To conclude this review, I'm feeling really satisfied with this update, and I am quite sure that I will plunge myself into my e-book collections even more frequently because of this amazing update.
