### 5/5 — A must have for language learning!

*2026-07-11*

Absolutely love! I used to have other vocab apps on my devices but recently deleted them for this one. I have been using it to learn more french vocabulary throughout my day with the widget feature & it has been the highlight of my days recently. Developer is genuinely invested in listening to suggestions & making this app the best it can be. Cannot recommend this app enough!!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much, Lunastrix - this genuinely made my day. I'm so glad the widget found a spot in your day and that Plume won out over the others. Keep the suggestions coming, they make it better. Bonne continuation with your French!

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.3.0 — 2026-08-18

Version 1.3.0 brings a quieter, more personal Plume:

· Word library now including curated exam words (AWL, GRE, TOEFL)
· Ten curated topic categories — easier to browse and filter
· Pick a learning goal — 15 gentle goals, chosen not typed
· Interface language switch: English, 简体中文, or follow your system
· More consistent pronunciation — all three voices (Atlas, Juno, Wren) re-recorded to one unified quality
· Everyday phrase library for English and French

### 1.2.0 — 2026-08-07

Plume 1.2.0 brings the daily word to more learners.

 • Bilingual definitions are now free. Turn on "Bilingual definitions" in Settings and see a Chinese meaning beneath every English definition — no Pro required.
 • Beautiful Chinese typography. Definitions render in Source Han Serif, a literary serif that matches Plume's bookish feel (Regular + Medium weights).
 • Fresh icons and labeled navigation (Progress · Practice · Phrases), a friendlier word-story button, more reliable pronunciation.
 • Fixed: some long words could collapse to an unreadably small size with bilingual mode on. Every word now shows at full size.
 • More reliable purchases. Trial, subscribe, and restore flows were rebuilt for fewer hiccups and clearer messages.

### 1.1.5 — 2026-07-20

Fixed a display issue that could occasionally make a word appear too small. Every word now shows at its full size, clear and legible. Thank you for reading with Plume.

### 1.1.4 — 2026-07-02

Now you can see the direct translation of every word, right above its definition - perfect for learning at a glance. Prefer different wording? Tap the pencil to make it your own. Thank you for reading with Plume.

### 1.1.3 — 2026-06-30

Minor updates. Thank you for reading with Plume.
