Quoi de neuf dans la dernière version ?
Version 2.6.1 — Smoother, and more yours
A polish release all about making Hanyu tidier, more personal, and easier to keep coming back to.
• Like what you love — tap the heart on any story, flashcard deck or recipe and your favourites float to the top. Double-tap to push the ones you love most even higher.
• Character Practice, refreshed — a calmer, less cluttered screen, plus a clearer set of levels including a new "Normal" that shows pinyin without the English, so you can test your memory.
• Daily reminders — switch on a gentle nudge in Profile › Settings to keep your streak alive.
• Streak milestones — a little celebration when you hit 3, 7, 30 days and beyond.
• Easier to get around — a tidier "More" menu, your most-used topics rise to the top, and Today now points you to a specific game or story to jump straight in.
• A cleaner profile screen, plus assorted fixes and polish under the hood.
Thanks for learning Mandarin with Hanyu — keep that streak going! 加油
