## Version history (last 3 releases)

### 0.6.0 — 2026-08-18

What's new in v0.6.0:

• Daily review brings words back right before you would forget them. Each day you get a small deck of what is fading, sized and weighted however suits you
• Learn a batch of new words each day from any HSK level or frequency list. Thanks charost for asking for both of these!
• Your schedule, your settings and each day's deck sync across your devices and p8nda.com
• A new Study section in Flashcards holds the daily loop, and Smart practice is retired now that Daily review finds weak words better
• Tabs, search, and word, deck and review pages are all a lot faster
• Search no longer says "No results" while it is still looking
• Hyphenated words like push-up and t-shirt now find the right entry

### 0.5.3 — 2026-08-03

This update is about practice: nearly every part of a session is now a setting.

• Mix directions in one session: some cards ask Chinese first, others English first
• Choose how cards are ordered: deck order, shuffled, or your weakest words first
• Choose what happens to a card you miss: it comes back soon, later, at the end, or not at all
• Word and example audio can play as the card appears or the moment you flip. Thanks charost for the idea!
• Pinyin can show on the front of the card
• Example sentences can sit on the front, wait until you flip, or stay off for good. Thanks charost for the report!
• Stroke practice: write traditional characters, hear the word before you draw it, and see how many strokes you missed
• Category practice lets you choose how many cards to study, like HSK and frequency already did

Also fixed: a blank practice screen on some saved sessions, and a sync issue that could drop words you had just added to a deck.
