## What is Proselens?

House Style lets you define preferred terms and review every match in context. Apply a replacement deliberately, with the original draft retained in revision history before the edited document saves.

HOW TO USE THE UPGRADE
1. Open House Style from the editor toolbar. Manage rules, add a literal term and an optional preferred replacement, and save the guide.
2. Review the current draft. Inspect each match and its context, then choose individual replacements.
3. Revisit revision history when needed. Export a guide as JSON or import one with confirmation; guide files do not include the draft.

The editor, local prose analysis, document library, word echoes and revision tools remain available. Echo detection no longer depends on optional part-of-speech model availability.

WHAT TO KNOW
Up to 50 literal rules and a 200 KB draft for House Style. More than 499 matches blocks the whole review instead of presenting partial results. Matching can respect word boundaries and case; it does not understand meaning, verify facts or establish a legal style standard. Replacements require an unchanged draft and a successful document save. Existing revision-history limits apply.

iPhone and iPad. No account required.

### 3.0 — 2026-07-11

Version 3.0

• Review guidance now identifies priority sentences for your selected audience and offers specific plain-language actions grounded in WCAG reading-level principles.

• Readability formulas now show their equations, English-language applicability, sample-size limits, and assumptions. Grade output is clearly presented as an estimate, never a diagnosis.

• Revision snapshots add before/after text and metric comparisons, with a reviewable history and recoverable restore action.

• Document storage is now versioned, atomic, and recoverable. Proselens migrates earlier libraries, keeps a last-known-good backup, reports failures visibly, and supports bounded library import/export.

• Long-document analysis remains off the main thread, while the editor now scales with Dynamic Type and improves VoiceOver, hardware-keyboard, Find, and iPad behavior.

### 2.0.1 — 2026-06-25

This update sharpens the interface: the iPad layout now uses a centered, comfortable reading width instead of stretching edge to edge, plus small display fixes. iPhone is unchanged.

### 2.0 — 2026-06-21

Proselens 2.0 — a pro upgrade for your writing, still 100% offline.

• Sticky-sentence & Glue Index: spot sentences weighed down by too many glue words.
• Cliché & redundancy detector: ~95 tired phrases highlighted live as you type.
• Insights: transitions, sentence-opener variety, rhythm, close repeats/echoes, and per-paragraph pacing.
• Writing Goals: per-document word and clarity targets with a live progress banner and a goal-met toast.
• PDF report export of your full analysis.

Every word is analyzed on your device — no account, no network.
