Home reports a lesson while it is being written. Asking for a lesson, asking for another one on a different life area, regenerating one, or saving a capture all show up on the processing card now, instead of the app going quiet until the lesson arrives. A dropped connection no longer ends that reporting for the rest of the session. A "New lessons ready" notification opens your lessons. When a second lesson arrives inside the batching window it has no push of its own, and the summary was the only thing to tap, so tapping it did nothing. Signing in no longer sends returning readers back through onboarding. On a slow connection the app could not tell "you are new" apart from "nobody has told me anything yet", and completing that picker resets every setting you had chosen. Your ambassador trial now shows what the second stage is actually worth. When you pick in-depth lessons, both places you can pick it say that an in-depth lesson is too long to appear on your Discover cards.

Choose how long your lessons are. Set it once for everything, or give a single book its own length. Scripture captures now file under a real reference. Type "Ecc 1:18" and Glean finds the book, chapter and verse, then shows the reference back to you wherever the capture appears. Your podcast has a place on Home now, with half the rail held for deep dives so a run of weekly episodes cannot bury the one you made from a book you cared about. You can switch the Discover feed off entirely. The tab stays and explains what the app still does without it, your followed topics are left alone, and turning it back on returns you to your own settings. Plus: a capture whose lesson failed or was skipped now says so and confirms the Sparks are refunded, opening a lesson finally marks it read, and signing in after a reinstall no longer asks for details we already had.

Capture the same page twice by accident? Not any more. Uploads that retry no longer create a duplicate. Your Word Bank holds 50 words. Older ones now move to an archive instead of blocking new ones, with two weeks' notice and a list of what is going. Nothing is deleted and you can bring any word back. Typed captures save to your device instantly instead of waiting on the network. Your shelf and captures list now update themselves.

Glainer opens on what it already has. Tabs load when you first visit them, lists and chats render from your device instead of a loading shimmer, and tapping a notification opens the screen straight away. Write your take with the capture, while the thought is still fresh. It now travels into the lesson, so what you get back answers what you actually thought. Review now shows how long you have held each card and how your pile is shrinking, with a real screen for the days when nothing is due. Captures save to your phone first and upload in the background, so a slow connection never traps you on the save screen. Plus: per book switches for what a capture generates, takes shown on cycle posts, a notification badge that finally comes down, and many smaller fixes.

This release adds plenty of performance improvements. Podcasts now start reliably on the first tap, and your weekly episode appears instantly instead of waiting on the network. Also fixed: duplicate collections when tapping Create, reminders in chat that asked to be added twice, unreadable status bars in light mode, and a handful of screens that opened blank until you pulled them down

Meet Think First - Glainer now invites you to write your own take before it reveals the lesson, so the idea sticks. Build a daily writing streak as you go.

Browse Discover with no account needed, a fresh new design throughout, faster startup, and dozens of fixes across reading, chat, and goals.

Share highlights to community walls, browse each community's shared word bank with a daily Word of the Day, tap to hear pronunciations on community words. New reader-type onboarding tunes the app to how you read; per-feature toggles let you switch off Goals, Pulse, Journal, Wisdom Nuggets, Communities, Life Areas, AI Lessons, and more from Settings.

Select any text in chats and lessons to copy, add it to Word Bank, or share it as a card. Wisdom Nugget polish: empty quotes now show a clean fallback, hour picker no longer hides invisible minutes, Share opens the branded card editor.

Two new ways to bring Glainer into your day. Wisdom Nuggets sends short quotes from your own library (and from communities you join) on a schedule you pick - daily, weekly, or hourly. And we are rolling out Ask Glainer, a single chat that searches everything you have ever captured, journaled, or noted. Journal got a free-form mode - tap the new Journal card on Home to write without attaching a lesson. Plus one-tap retry for failed Pulse messages, sharper Word Bank filters, and the source capture button now opens the same multi-page flow as the main camera button.

Notebooks are here. Tap "+" -> "Notebook" to create a freeform space for sermon notes, journals, podcast takeaways, or random thoughts. Type a note, save it as a draft on your phone, edit it later, and choose whether AI runs on it. Library has a new "Notebooks" filter and your sources stay in the order you add them. We also fixed encrypted-looking text leaking on community posts and comments, polished the reader toolbar, and added "Word Bank" to the EPUB reader.

Stability: fixed a tab indicator null deref crash on the goal detail and library screens. Polish: pulse previews on Home and Pulse History no longer leak `**bold**` and other markdown into the row text. Pulse Chat bubbles now show the day. You can now manage marketing emails and your weekly digest from Settings -> Email Preferences.

Goals now have a real lifecycle - dormant, archived, overdue, completed - each with their own banner, badge, and screen so nothing slips through the cracks. Pulse Chat opened from a lesson now shows the full lesson body and source capture inline, so you (and Pulse) start every conversation with the full picture. Plus a redesigned onboarding, a Saved Pulses feed, referral-code gating on sign-up, and dozens of fixes.

Introducing Pulse Chat - go deeper on any lesson, capture, or goal with a private AI conversation that picks up right where you left off. Introducing Word Bank - save words from your captures, hear them spoken in the voice you choose, and keep your favorites on Home.
