Version 1.8 is coming soon, but we’ve released Memorize Words for Spanish Lite with the new code if anyone wants to try it out. Here are the changes:

The ‘I know it’ button repeating words fix

It took forever to figure out why this was happening, but thanks to your emails, comments, and studying databases we’ve nailed it. Basically here’s the sequence of events:

1. You start a lesson and finish it.
2. You move on to practicing the new words, but you never complete the practice phase because you leave (click to a different tab or leave to app).
3. The unpracticed words reappear in the next lesson phrase and cannot be disabled.

The only way to get rid of the words was to click the right arrow instead of ‘I know it’ and commit to learning them. This is fine because you already committed to learning them. This is fixed now, it was just a matter of repeating the error.

Fixes to Hangman

• Some words have spaces or capitalizations and therefore impossible to win - fixed.
• An odd timing issue with the word pronounced too early or too late - fixed.
• Game sometimes crashing when trying to grab a new word at the beginning - fixed.
• A bunch of little things with all the games to improve stability.

Browsing Missed Cards

Cards that you’ve scored ‘D’ or ‘F’ are placed in the Browsed Missed to better focus on those cards. This will be especially useful for many of you who have reached past the 3000 mark. Also you no longer need to tap the cards to move on to the next word. Just tap on the left and right arrows to move between words and tap only if you need to see the translations.

You can listen to music in the background

Hey if that’s what people want, sure we’ll enable it. For everyone else, I didn’t want to add yet another setting so just turn off your Rick Astley before starting MemWords...comment away.

Small Improvements

Just a little polishing such as improving the behavior of disabling sound effects and allowing people to turn off ‘Auto-Promotion’.


Just to note for those that submitted word updates. First of all thank you. Right now we’re working on a system to update databases, and once that’s completed they’ll be added in through that system.
