Change style in Me → Settings. • Improved text contrast and small-text readability. • Improved some Japanese and Korean guidance. • New Explainer: about a minute of English explaining useful expressions in scene dialogues and Today’s patterns. • Pick a topic opens faster. • Help me say it suggests common phrases as you type.

A sentence you struggled with no longer comes back sooner, or repeatedly within the same session. • Added Skip to speaking cards. Skipping is not counted as a mistake, and the sentence returns after a cooldown. When a topic has few sentences to practice, new ones are drawn from more scenes. • Daily sentence patterns now follow the same spacing and skip cooldown: examples you just practiced are not repeated the same day, and when the current set is temporarily finished the next set starts while earlier examples return on later days.

• Fixed an issue where word pictures could repeatedly refresh or fail to appear; download errors now distinguish low storage, network interruptions, and cancellation. • Improved story resume playback with in-card playback and sentence-by-sentence demos and speaking practice. • Fixed an occasional blank page when opening Listen or Speak from Home Screen Quick Actions or the OpenABC widget.
