The features and improvements we've shipped, newest first. VocabFreak is actively built — this is where the changes land.

🇫🇮 Finnish noun cases — every Finnish noun card now shows its full case table, singular and plural — all twelve of talo · talon · taloa · talossa · taloon… — the signature challenge of Finnish, with consonant gradation already applied. From Wiktionary, plus a guide to the cases.
🔤 Swedish word forms — every noun, verb and adjective card now shows its full set of forms — flicka · flickan · flickor · flickorna, springa · springer · sprang · sprungit, stor · stort · större · störst — since Swedish changes word endings instead of adding “a/the”. Straight from Wiktionary, plus a short guide.
⏱ Time in app — your profile now shows both “time studied” and total “time in app”.
✨ Fixes & polish — tidier home screen (one clean grid of actions; Free practice and the grammar guides are always there); a study session now clearly shows its mix of reviews + new words, and each card is labelled New or Review (with when you last saw it); the “Skip ahead” placement test now lets you fine-tune how many words to mark as known, with a preview, before anything is applied; the activity heatmap no longer shows a stray day for placement-test words.

📊 Your Profile — a daily streak, an activity heatmap, time studied, and an estimated level (A1 → C2).
🔔 Daily reminders — opt in per language for a morning and an evening nudge in your local time, only on days you haven't studied yet.
♾️ Study at your pace — a daily pace up to Unlimited, a “Learn more” button to go past it, free practice that never touches your schedule, and a “✓ I already know this” shortcut.
🔊 Listen — tap any word to hear it spoken aloud.
🇫🇮 A bigger Finnish deck — expanded to roughly the 5,000 most common words, ranked from a balanced corpus so the order reflects real everyday usage — plus a searchable Dictionary.
🌍 More languages — Swedish (1,000 words) plus Russian, French and Japanese demos, each with spoken forms — unlocked with Pro.
📖 How it works — a page explaining the method, and the app moved to its own home at vocabfreak.com.

🎉 VocabFreak launched

Learn a language by its most common words first — starting with the 1,000 most frequent Finnish words, each with a real example and the way it's actually said out loud (mä oon, not just minä olen). Spaced repetition resurfaces every word right before you'd forget it, a placement test lets you skip what you already know, you set your own daily pace, and Google sign-in keeps your progress synced across every device.
