Weekly #Dev Log | November 21
Bonjour Deers, here’s what shipped this week.
Android Updates
- Unified section and unit colors in the Main Course so things look cleaner.
- Fixed progress display issues in My Courses.
- Squashed a handful of exercise bugs that were annoying literally everyone.
We’re also cooking up a much better notification system for your SRS reviews.
Quick PSA: if you see a red dot on your Review tab, that means you have fifty or more flashcards waiting. Please don’t let your reviews turn into a medieval punishment. Your future self will thank you.

Huge Update to ChineseSkill
If you didn’t know, ChineseSkill is our oldest child, and this week it got a massive glow-up. Available now on Android. iOS coming soon. New features, expanded courses, polished UI, and a whole lot more behind the scenes.
I’ll be breaking everything down in detail over on r/ChineseSkill, so come hang out there too if you’re curious.
And no, LingoDeer isn’t being left behind. ChineseSkill is where we test Chinese-specific features and experiment with new ideas that might eventually make their way into LingoDeer if the community wants them.
Your feedback genuinely shapes what we build next, so let us know what you think.
Thanks its a great and best idea!
It would be great to expand on the German courses, going past B1 would be great.
Maybe even a mini level test outside of the test out ones in the path.
Ive been using this app for years and got the lifetimes a few months back but the German hasnt changed much or at all for ages
