Highlights
- A full, illustrated User Manual — on the forum, one tap from inside the app. A searchable, bilingual guide that walks you through everything: your first lesson, the classroom tools, building worlds and companions with Nüwa, review and records, your pet, compute and subscriptions, and more. Tap the manual button at the top-right of the app to open it with your forum identity already signed in — handy for new users and for everyday "how do I…?" moments.
- Keyboard shortcuts for the things you do most. New shortcuts across the app — toggle the sidebar (⌘/Ctrl+B), search (⌘/Ctrl+K), new lesson (⌘/Ctrl+N), light/dark (⌘/Ctrl+Shift+D), voice (⌘/Ctrl+Shift+V), and in the classroom the formula editor (⌘/Ctrl+Shift+M) and AI-answer (⌘/Ctrl+Shift+A). Press ⌘/Ctrl+/ for a cheat sheet. Every button now shows an instant tooltip with its shortcut, and shortcuts never fire while you're typing, so they can't interrupt a message in progress.
- Replay controls made for language learners. When you replay a spoken message you now get a draggable progress bar — scrub back to hear a phrase again and again, pause and resume, or loop the whole clip. And the speed control now works for Xiaomi voices too, so slow, careful listening works on every voice.
- A textbook store that's easier to explore. Save books to a Wishlist that syncs with the website, sort the store by Most downloaded to find what's popular, and tap any book's card to read its full introduction — formulas and all — before you get it.
- Two new forum sections: Wishes and Workshop. Wish for textbooks that don't exist yet (and watch their status as we schedule and ship them), and share the plugins, scripts, themes and packs you've made for Socratopia.
Fixes & improvements
- Example sentences in lessons display reliably. With "hide stage-direction narration" on, foreign-language example sentences are no longer mistakenly hidden — the examples you're meant to read stay on screen.
- Lessons cover the material more faithfully. Companions are firmer about genuinely teaching a chapter rather than reciting its outline, and review flashcards now test what was actually taught in the dialogue.
- A roomier textbook library. Newly imported textbooks now appear at the top of the list instead of buried at the bottom, the cards got a cleaner look, and "Import" wording makes clear your textbooks are processed locally — they're never uploaded.
- "Owned" and "in this world" are now distinct. In the store, a book you own but haven't yet downloaded into the current world now shows an "Import here" button instead of a blanket "Owned" — so you won't assume it's ready and then find it missing once you're inside the world.
- More comfortable reading. The four font-size steps are spread further apart for high-DPI screens and small laptops alike, and a lesson's energy bar holds more, so a full charge lasts noticeably longer.
- Clearer formula editing in dark mode; sharing a companion to the forum now carries its photo avatar; and on the forum you can re-crop your current avatar without hunting for the original image.
- Plus many smaller refinements across the app, the forum, and the website.
