What's New in Menzi

2.1.0

September 25, 2026

• A story's new words go into your deck from the story itself. The glossary card adds the word where you meet it, instead of sending you off to search for it later. • The daily run takes you into chat itself rather than stopping to ask. It used to pause on a card offering to open chat, and tapping Open could leave the app on a blank screen until you force-quit it — there is no card and no second screen to open now. • Running out of listening audio should be far rarer. The quality check that screens generated clips was set at the middle of the healthy range rather than below it, so it was discarding about half of the good ones and the queue ran dry. • Work done while the connection is down is no longer lost. If the app could not open a practice session — most likely on the first launch after your phone has slept — everything in that sitting was recorded nowhere and graded against nothing. It now retries on your next action, and what you did in the meantime is kept. • Words are credited only when the sentence clears the same bar that holds you. A turn held back for how natural it sounded still credited the words in it. • An assemble exercise marks the word it is drilling. It arrived as one tile among its own distractors, with nothing on screen saying which word the question was about. • Time studied counts the time you were actually practising. It ran from the moment a screen opened until it closed, so a locked phone, a call and lunch all counted — and on the Immersion tab the clock effectively ran for as long as the app was open. • Asking a question out loud gets you an answer, not another turn to answer. A spoken question came back wearing the conversation's frame, asking you to respond in Chinese, even though it had been recognised as a question. • The words-learned average on your analytics is measured over days. It divided by the nights the app happened to record rather than the days in the window, so a missed capture read as a higher average.

Note from the founder

I developed Menzi for many reasons — the main one being to make language learning easier. Learning a language is a lot of work, but that doesn’t mean the work has to be uncomfortable. Menzi provides a framework so that you can simply open your phone and follow along. It’s designed to focus on the highest-leverage effort, making every minute of practice maximally effective. I’ve had an amazing time developing and, most importantly, using it. I hope Menzi can be as useful to you on your language journey as it has been to me.

Happy learning,
Michael

Does Menzi teach grammar?

Yes, Menzi includes a structured library of high-frequency grammar patterns with dedicated practice and progress tracking, helping you build sentences rather than just memorizing vocabulary.

Can I talk to an AI tutor in Menzi?

Yes, Menzi features a live AI tutor that guides you toward correct language production and provides feedback as you practice speaking and composing sentences.
