## What is Bamlu?

Learn Mandarin in short, focused sessions with BAMLU and its friendly red fox.

WATCH AND LISTEN
Practice with compact Mandarin clips designed around useful everyday language. Follow Hanzi, pinyin, and English meaning while you listen.

TAP ANY WORD
Open a word directly from a caption to see its pronunciation and meaning. Save useful vocabulary without interrupting the lesson.

REVIEW WHAT YOU SAVE
Return to saved words, mark what you know, and review vocabulary in context.

FIND YOUR LEVEL
Start with a short HSK-oriented placement experience. BAMLU uses broad learning bands to personalize practice; it is not an official HSK examination or certification.

BUILD A DAILY HABIT
Choose a daily goal, follow your streak, track learning time, and see your progress throughout the year.

SYNC ACROSS DEVICES
Sign in with Apple or email to keep your saved words, streak and settings on every device. Accounts are optional.

SEARCH YOUR LIBRARY
Search Mandarin or English, then filter clips by level, topic, and format.

BAMLU PRO
A BAMLU Pro subscription unlocks the complete learning experience. Monthly and annual plans are available. The annual plan may include a seven-day introductory trial for eligible customers. Prices and availability are shown in the app before purchase.

Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.7 — 2026-10-15

Free-trial reminders you can count on: the plan screen now shows when we'll remind you, and Bamlu sends a notification two days before your trial ends. We also check in during your trial, Search keeps up as you type, and the Teacher starts speaking sooner. The paywall's sign-in link now says it's for people who already subscribed, and purchases link to your account more reliably. We also fixed a freeze when opening a word's examples, so the app feels smoother.

### 1.0.6 — 2026-10-12

A clearer plan screen with a 7-day free trial on the yearly plan and prices shown in your local currency. After you sign up, Bamlu now offers to create an account so your words and progress sync across devices. We also fixed video clips that showed a stuck thumbnail and made purchase errors easier to understand.

### 1.0.5 — 2026-10-09

A new look for your Teacher: a fresh chat, a talking orb, and step-by-step goals for each topic you pick. We also made creating an account and restoring your subscription smoother.

### 1.0.4 — 2026-10-09

New: Teacher. Have a spoken conversation in Mandarin with an AI tutor. Pick a goal (introductions, ordering food, family, directions or your daily routine), speak, and the teacher answers out loud. See what you said and what the teacher said as Hanzi, pinyin and English in any mix you like, and tap I'm Stuck for a sentence to say.

Teacher needs Bamlu Pro, microphone access and an internet connection.

Plus smaller improvements and fixes.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-10-07

Flashcards are here!

• Review the words you save with tap-to-flip cards. Swipe to grade them.
• HSK 3.0 word decks for every level
• New tone drill to train your ear
• Your feed now shows clips with the words you're reviewing
• Bug fixes and smoother playback
