Refreshed the app icon with a layered design and updated light, dark, and tinted appearances. Fixed decimal practice on iPhone. Tenths and hundredths rods are now available in lessons, and decimal starting values and answers are handled correctly.

Improved stability when moving abacus beads and during Flash Anzan countdowns. Fixed a crash that could occur when audio was interrupted.

Soroban 1.3 introduces full French support and a gentler learning path for beginners. - The app, lessons, curriculum, accessibility labels, and widgets are now available in French. - Foundation lessons establish bead mechanics, place value, and direct addition before introducing subtraction. - Lesson wording and localization consistency have been refined across every supported app language. - Additional reliability and accessibility improvements.

Soroban 1.2 makes the path from your first bead movement to daily practice clearer and more rewarding. - A shorter, hands-on introduction now leads directly into your first real lesson. - The new Learning Guide keeps abacus basics available without restarting onboarding. - Today gives you a clearer recommended next lesson, and lesson completion now confirms saved progress, streak activity, and what comes next. - Retry an incorrect Daily Challenge and receive smarter next-level recommendations after Speed Drills. - Improved iPhone portrait and landscape layouts, iPad onboarding, accessibility, localization, progress visuals, and overall reliability.

This update expands the Soroban curriculum with richer lessons and practice content across foundation, complements, multiplication, division, anzan, and dan mastery. New optional practice reminders can gently bring you back after a week away, and lesson pages now have clearer titles, better practice guidance, and improved checkpoints. We also refined English, Japanese, and Simplified Chinese localization, strengthened curriculum validation, and included stability and release-preparation fixes.
