CHOOSE THE TYPE OF PROBLEM YOU PRACTICE - In topic practice, after picking a topic and difficulty you can now pick a problem type — for example, only internal division points, or only external ones. Available across Math I, A, II, B, III and C in over 250 places (the picker appears only where types exist; the usual random mix is still the default). STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATIONS FOR ALL OF MATH C - Vectors, the complex plane, and curves — every Math C topic now has a full step-by-step explanation after you check your answer. Explanations are now complete for every topic in every subject. BETTER LAYOUT ON iPAD - Fixed an issue where the keypad or the answer button could be pushed off screen when a problem statement was long. Long problems now scroll. EXPLANATIONS NOW SHOW EVERY STEP OF THE WORKING - Step-by-step explanations in every subject have been reviewed so the maths no longer jumps from the substituted formula straight to the answer. Number-line diagrams now match the way textbooks draw them. MORE VARIETY IN MATH B - Hypothesis testing, recurrences, series and more — 17 topics now ask for genuinely different work at each difficulty, and repeat themselves less. Thank you for using Sugoku.

EXPLANATIONS NOW SHOW EVERY STEP OF THE WORKING - Step-by-step explanations in every subject have been reviewed so the maths no longer jumps from the substituted formula straight to the answer. The line where the numbers go in and the line where they are worked out are shown separately — the same order you would write on paper. - Number-line diagrams now match the way textbooks draw them. MORE VARIETY IN MATH B - Hypothesis testing, recurrences, series and more — 17 topics now ask for genuinely different work at each difficulty, and repeat themselves less. - Also fixed small display issues in explanations, such as the same value appearing twice, or a minus sign left in a fraction's denominator. Thank you for using Sugoku. Send your thoughts any time from the suggestion box in the app.

YOUR RATING NOW COUNTS EVEN IF YOU STOP PARTWAY - Until now, a Kyokui match only reached the leaderboard if you finished all 10 questions. Your rating is now updated after every single question, so if you have to stop early, the progress you made still counts. - Questions answered offline, or when the app was closed unexpectedly, are sent the next time you are online. A SMOOTHER STEP UP IN DIFFICULTY - New questions have been added to the tangent-chord angle, cyclic quadrilaterals and Σ summation. Where "normal" and "hard" used to ask for the same work, "hard" now asks for one more step of thinking. - The new questions come with step-by-step explanations too. Thank you for using Sugoku. Send your thoughts any time from the suggestion box in the app.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATIONS FOR MATH III - All 43 Math III topics now show you how to get to the answer, one step at a time. How to break down an ∞−∞ limit, what to substitute in an integral. The places where you are most likely to get stuck are the ones explained most carefully. - Every topic in Math I, A, II, B and III now has an explanation. When a topic trips you up, you can check the method right there and keep going. EASIER TO READ - Exponents, roots, fractions, Σ and ∫ have been reviewed across every topic so they look the way they do in your textbook. - Prime factorisation answers are now entered as 2³, with the exponent raised. - VoiceOver reads these expressions correctly too. Thank you for using Sugoku. Send your thoughts any time from the suggestion box in the app.

DETAILED EXPLANATIONS - Step-by-step explanations are now available for every topic in Math I, A, II and B. See which formula to use, why, and where students usually slip. - Explanations use textbook notation too: horizontal-bar fractions, square roots with the bar, and raised exponents. Diagrams are shown where they help. MORE CONTENT - Added "Sums and general terms" to Math B (finding aₙ from the sum Sₙ). - Added "Continuous random variables" to Math B (probability density functions, where probability is an area). - Added geometric sums (Σarⁿ⁻¹) to the sigma topic, and the denominator of the answer is now yours to work out. - The app now covers 237 topics. MOVING TO A NEW DEVICE - Added device transfer. Issue a transfer code on your old device and enter it on the new one to carry over your player name, rating and leaderboard record. The code is valid for 10 minutes and can be used once. FIXES - Fixed a blank, unresponsive screen that could appear on problems that have both a diagram and a fraction in the answer field. - Improved variety so that a topic no longer repeats near-identical problems.

MORE CONTENT - Greatly expanded Math III: functions and limits, differentiation and integration (inverse and composite functions, rational and irrational functions, limits of sequences, rationalizing ∞−∞ forms, the floor function, and cases where no limit exists). - Added five topics on statistical inference and five on sequences. - The app now covers 235 topics. EASIER TO START - A short tutorial now explains the Kyokuisen rules (one attempt a day, rating, leaderboards by school year) the first time you open it. FIXES - Fixed a problem in "applications of recurrence relations" where a correct answer was not accepted. - Fixed broken formula layout in some problems.
