• Listen for — a short question appears just before the passage that answers it, then stays until the next one. • Video keeps going — a lesson continues in the background and with the screen locked. • Lock Screen — skip forward or back 15 seconds, or drag to a point in the lesson. The lesson title and time stay in step for audio and video. • Tap a word for meaning — the transcript points out that you can look a word up without leaving the lesson. • Shadow — long paragraphs are easier to read, and Next responds across the whole button. • Today — Continue Listening resumes a paused audio lesson from the same place. • Progress and review — completion, Continue, and saved words stay aligned with what you actually finished.
