Pāli dictionary Tap any Pāli word, anywhere in a sutta, to see its meaning. Curated terms open a full definition card; every other word resolves against the bundled Digital Pāli Dictionary. A "?" button lists all the Pāli terms of the sutta you're reading. You can now turn the underline off in Settings and keep tapping. Backup & restore Export your notes, lists, highlights and reading history as a single file, and restore it on any device. Save it wherever you like: iCloud, Drive, Files. Better reading Long suttas no longer appear out of order. Highlights hug the text. The Khuddaka Nikāya now ships with its Pāli root text. Library Cleaner titles across AN and KN, correct sub-collection badges (THAG, THIG), and named chapters where the canon has them. French & Vietnamese Collection and chapter names are now translated throughout, with the Pāli kept as a subtitle. Faster Lighter memory use when loading the search model, and quicker semantic search. Dark mode is now the real default, and the sepia theme is warmer.
