If you've personalized your words in chat, they now stay right when a word list is updated. Before, an update could leave your selection pointing at the wrong words until the app was next restarted. Now Onymera notices the change straight away and chooses your words again from the new list, on the lock screen too. French, German and Italian have grown to about 2,700 words each - level with Spanish, and into B1. Like every list update, the new words arrive on their own.
