Introduction
The digital reading landscape is constantly evolving, and so is ZinFlow – your trusted companion for transforming web content into beautifully formatted EPUB e-books. Today, we’re excited to announce the release of ZinFlow v1.4.2, which brings important bug fixes and refinements to our recently introduced dedicated email server feature. This update represents the culmination of several recent improvements that have significantly enhanced ZinFlow’s reliability and user experience.
Alongside these technical improvements, we’re making a pivotal shift in our business model, transitioning fully to a subscription-based approach. To celebrate this change and welcome new users, we’re offering an exclusive promotion: your first month of ZinFlow Premium absolutely free! Read on to discover all the details about these exciting developments.
What’s New in ZinFlow v1.4.2
Critical Bug Fixes for iOS URL Conversion
The latest v1.4.2 update addresses a significant issue that affected some iOS users when converting certain URLs. Previously, specific webpage addresses would fail to convert properly on iOS devices, leading to frustration for affected users. Our development team has thoroughly investigated and resolved this problem, ensuring that ZinFlow now handles a wider range of URL formats and structures with improved reliability.
Enhanced Image Download Performance
We’ve significantly optimized the image download process with improved concurrent downloading capabilities. This enhancement results in:
- Faster EPUB generation when dealing with image-heavy articles
- More efficient use of system resources during the conversion process
- Better handling of multiple images without performance degradation
Share Extension Improvements
ZinFlow v1.4.2 fixes a critical issue with the Share Extension functionality. Previously, when sharing URLs from other apps, the extension occasionally failed to correctly process URL parameters, which prevented proper content extraction. This update ensures that all shared URLs are correctly parsed and processed, making the sharing workflow much more reliable.
Text Corrections and UI Polish
We’ve also addressed various minor text and spelling errors throughout the application, enhancing the overall polish and professionalism of the ZinFlow experience. These small but important refinements reflect our commitment to delivering a high-quality product in every detail.
Recent Major Updates: v1.3 and v1.4
The v1.4.2 release builds upon two significant recent updates that transformed ZinFlow from a simple converter into a comprehensive reading management system:
ZinFlow v1.4: Dedicated Email Server
Introduced in May 2025, v1.4 brought a revolutionary dedicated email server feature that fundamentally solved Kindle delivery challenges:
- Specialized EPUB Email Delivery: Our dedicated servers ensure proper handling of EPUB attachments, maintaining file integrity throughout the transmission process
- Optimized Attachment Size: We adjusted the maximum attachment size from 50MB to 25MB, striking the perfect balance between content capacity and delivery reliability
- Bypass Mail Drop Issues: The system now avoids problems with cloud sharing features like Mail Drop that previously caused incomplete file transfers and Kindle conversion failures
ZinFlow v1.3: Library and Multi-Article Export
Released in early May 2025, v1.3 introduced several game-changing features:
- Library Feature: A personal collection system for saving articles, similar to “Read It Later” services
- Multi-Article EPUB Export: The ability to combine multiple saved articles into custom-organized e-books
- iCloud Synchronization: Seamless syncing of your reading collection across all your Apple devices
- Enhanced Share Extension: Save articles to your Library without opening the main app
- Built-in Browser: Access login-protected content directly within ZinFlow
Transition to Subscription-Only Model
Why We’re Making This Change
With the evolution of ZinFlow from a simple converter tool to a comprehensive service with powerful backend capabilities, our cost structure has fundamentally changed. The introduction of server-based features, particularly our dedicated email server, requires ongoing investment in infrastructure, maintenance, and security.
After careful consideration, we’ve made the decision to transition fully to a subscription model starting with v1.4. This change ensures:
- Sustainable Development: A predictable revenue stream to support continuous improvement and innovation
- Server Reliability: Consistent resources for maintaining and enhancing our server infrastructure
- Better User Experience: More reliable service with faster processing times and higher success rates
- Regular Updates: Ability to deliver frequent improvements and new features
What This Means for Existing Users
If you previously purchased ZinFlow with a one-time payment, we want to reassure you that:
- Your Access Remains Unchanged: You’ll continue to enjoy all the features you paid for, including watermark removal, unlimited conversions, and all server-based features including the dedicated email server

The one-time purchase option is being discontinued for new users only, but existing one-time purchasers will maintain complete access to all current and future features.
