Share links now open right in Wakatta — tap a channel or video link a friend sends and it opens in the app instead of the browser. We also fixed a glitch where transcript words could shift as the current word was highlighted, so the text stays steady now. Plus more reliable video loading and small fixes.

Now with YouTube. The new Videos lens brings 170+ hand-picked Japanese YouTube channels — learners, vlogs, food, gaming and more — with the same tap-to-look-up transcript, furigana and saved words you use for podcasts. • Shows now holds both Podcasts and Videos — switch at the top, search channels (even in romaji) and follow your favorites. • Review a saved word or moment right from its video clip, and see which channel it came from. • Polish and fixes throughout.

Player, your way — switch the controls between Standard, Compact and Minimal in Reading settings. The smaller layouts leave more room for the transcript. Plus polish and fixes under the hood.

You can now give your account a display name — add or change it any time in the Account tab.

• Fine-tune playback speed in 5% steps, from 0.5× to 2×, with one-tap presets. • Copy any line straight from the transcript — long-press, then tap Copy. • The mini-player now shows the show’s cover art. • Quick in-app tips point out handy features as you go.

• New Japanese–English dictionary — search by kanji, kana, romaji or English, with audio examples from real podcasts. • Share a show, episode, the exact moment you’re on, or a word — links open the app right on that content. • Mastery levels on every saved word, plus one-tap copy of any word or sentence. • Reliability fixes across playback, sharing and sign-in.
