Wordle and Changelog changes, Teasers of new things to come!

Hello! We've recently deployed a new update containing some quality-of-life changes to the Wordles and this Changelog page that you are looking at right now.

For the wordle minigames, we've reworked the backend so that we can keep track of which words have already been used and also keep track of when you've failed or succeeded in solving them. Aside from solving the duplicate wordle problem, this will also lead to some cool stats in the future, where you can show off how many days in a row you got it, or have a monthly overview of wordles done.

For the changelog, we've added pagination, to prevent everything from loading in at once. At the top, you can find a new button to load newer entries, whereas if you scroll down, it will load older entries. This should make the page a bit more performant, as our changelog entries were getting to a large amount! (Oh how time flies huh!)

We also have two fun teasers to show you for those who missed in on our Discord:

Wonder what this is about.. 🤔

You'll soon be able to share your profile and stats on things like Discord, Twitter, Forums, and wherever else you'd like! You can customize the way you want it to look (images) and which stats to show or not show on it too.

Speaking of Discord, did you know that if you have a lifetime account, you can get early sneak peeks in our exclusive lifetime channel over at the MM Discord?

Have a lovely Sunday and keep up the studying!

Push Notifications, Emojis, Billing Management & more

Yet another update just went live

Let's head into the main feature of today's update.

Push Notifications!

You can now get reminders on your phone or desktop whenever new SRS reviews become available, or a daily reminder to do your lessons.

For review push notifications, you can set a minimum threshold before it will send you a notification (say, at least 10 reviews available).

For your daily lesson reminder, this is set at 10 AM every day, in your selected timezone.

You can enable both options individually on the settings page. If you use multiple devices, be sure to register them all individually.

Note that on Mac, you might need to give your browser explicit permissions to show notifications before they show up.

iOS currently does not support push notifications, but the next OS update (16.4) will likely support it, so soon you will also be able to get MM notifications!

There's also another fun new feature we're introducing today. Perhaps you might've already seen something new in this changelog?

Emojis

That's right, we've added emojis! 🎉 When you comment on MM you can now type emojis with :nameofemoji: and a small suggestion popup will let you select an emoji to insert into your comment. 🤩

We've also added a few of our own custom emojis (which we will expand upon in the future), all of them starting with maru for the name: etc

So it's time to get expressive! 😊

Next to this we have a few new other additions and bugfixes:

New Features:

• 

  Billing - There is now a separate page to manage your billing details (e.g. to cancel your subscription, update your payment method or look at your invoice details). You can find it by going to the regular billing page.

• 

  Navbar - Added a nice pulse animation for when you have new (on-site) notifications available (like this changelog!).

• 

  Study Lists Overview - Changed the progress bar colors of the Study List cards to be green only when the progress is at 100%.

Bug Fixes:

• 

  SRS Lessons & Reviews - Entering an answer with certain Keyboards on Android in Firefox will no longer require two or three "enter"/next presses for it to submit.

More SRS Improvements (Hotkeys, Audio in Lightning Mode) And More!

Here we go again! This time we've got some additional SRS improvements like hotkeys, and audio autoplay in lightning mode, but also things like proper thumbnails when sharing MM links, loading screens for adventure, and a bunch of high-priority bug fixes!

Let's get into it:

"Dragging" cursor

We've also got new level tiles coming along soon, as well as other artwork that we'll tell more about in the future!

SRS Reordering, Study List Deletion and many improvements and bug fixes!

Time for another pretty big dev update! This time we focused on a few highly requested smaller features and things that were on our priority to-do lists.

First up, Reorder settings for your SRS Reviews! You can now sort your reviews just the way you like them:

• 

  Randomly (default)

• 

  Oldest First

• 

  Newest First

• 

  Lowest Level First

• 

  Highest Level First

• 

  Meanings Layouts First

• 

  Readings Layouts First

Next to that, you can also choose to keep item siblings together! This means you will get all item layouts before moving on to the next review item, letting you quickly finish items. This setting is combinable with the above reorder settings too!

You can access these settings by clicking on the gear button next to the lightning mode button in the top-right during reviews:

Next up are a bunch of new features and improvements:

• 

  Study Lists - You can now Remove Study Lists from your account. Just open the Edit Study List modal and click the Delete button to delete it. Easy as pie! Note that you can only remove your personal study lists or premade lists.
