New in 1.6: • Widgets for your home screen and lock screen: your own words, with your daily goal and your streak. Tap a word to open it. • Continue with Apple or Google to sign in. • React to videos with a phrase, and see what's new in Friends → Activity. • Profile videos zoom open and closed; swipe back to close. • A video no longer stays frozen behind its cover.

New in 1.5: • Learn English, now alongside Dutch, German, Spanish and Mandarin Chinese. • Smoother videos: they keep playing through short network drops and start faster. • Your watch time is no longer lost when you open something mid-video. • Subtitles first: the buttons and the flag on the video step back. • A word you add turns orange right away. • Zoom into profile photos, and tap the active tab again to jump to the top.

Polygloat has a whole new look. • A calmer, cleaner design. The videos, faces and flags bring the colour. • Hold any word and its meaning appears right above it. • New, learning and review words each have their own colour in the subtitles. • The dictionary opens over the paused video. For Chinese it shows the other script in brackets, with a button to practise writing. • Rebuilt Progress and Streak pages, and your language flag shows today's goal. • Choose your subtitle size and which side the buttons sit on. • Filming a video: the camera suggests the right language, and you can still change it after recording. • Delete a draft straight from your profile.

• Plan your practice: when you start a language, choose when you'll watch and turn on reminders that fit your day. • Reminders that help, never a pile of words to review. Some ask whether you still know the words you learned last time. • The dictionary now opens as clear cards, and a word you already know shows what it means. • A quicker start for beginners, and the Create screen no longer asks about your photos every time.

• Your daily goal now lives on the language flag — a ring that fills as you watch, on every tab. • A warmer start: the placement test ends with your result and the words you already know, then you choose how long you want to practise each day. • Mandarin words with more than one meaning now open the right entry, and Traditional or Simplified characters follow your setting everywhere. • Starting a new language no longer ends on a spinner.

• A new level test: pick the right meaning instead of judging yourself, see whether you were right straight away, and say "I don't know this" without penalty. • Look a word up and you start learning it — no extra step. • Words you can start learning are marked in the subtitles, and the popup shows how many new words you have left today. • Dutch, Italian, Bulgarian and Greek can now be your support language, so meanings appear in a language you already know. • Sentence translations open above the line instead of covering it. • More accurate watch time, streaks and review scheduling.
