Looks good, thanks! I'll let you know if we need any additional information.

@skyblueteapot - Would you be able to confirm which version of Android you're running? Also, it would be helpful if you could create a new log file, get the app to crash then send over the log file again. Apparently the previous file didn't contain enough information about why it crashed.

Are there any updates with regards to the "blue" highlighted words?

Sorry, blue words can only be used on the website. There are no plans to add them to the app although we would like to add this type of functionality in the future. In the meantime, you can study your lessons on the site using Quick LingQ mode so you can then study the lesson in detail on your mobile device.

For me, words marked known (level 4) on the website are showing up as blue on the app since the update. This may be what gem4lyf is talking about.

I'm using Chinese language if this makes a difference.

(Edit: Just checked with Spanish, seeing it there too.)
(Edit 2: iLingQ 2.3.1 on Android 4.1.1)

@dcbaok - Thanks for pointing this out! It seems there's an issue with Status 4 words showing up as blue, when they should actually just have a gray underline. We'll get this taken care of!

@mark - What I meant by "blue" words in the android app is that they shouldn't be blue. From what I gather, those are the words that I previously lingq'd and learned. I was wondering if there's a fix to that because it makes it pretty difficult to work on lessons on my phone.

Additionally, unknown words that are highlighted blue in the lessons on the website are not highlighted at all in the app.

We don't have any immediate plans to display new words with a blue highlight in the app, as this would likely imply that you can actually do something with these words. However, we are working actively on this bug and plan to have it fixed very shortly as we prepare the next minor update to the app.

@alex, mark - I pointed out this blue highlighting issue on the last version of the app. I'm not sure why there is all of this confusion. If it isn't clear as to what the issue is, I can send you a screenshot.

The synchronization issue is still a problem. Well, it does seem to sync my lessons that I open while online but I do have to remember which ones those are since occasionally all my active lessons are listed even when I'm offline and not just the ones that are synced. None of the flashcard data syncs with the website. I'm not sure if that is a step forward or back from the way it was done two versions ago. Back then it would sync the data with the website and then later erase that data when the app was opened again.

The newest version of the app opens on my Galaxy Tab 2 by the way, thanks.

@cgreen0038 - Not to worry, the blue highlighting issue is well understood and will be fixed shortly.

Syncing, as we're finding, is one of the most difficult issues to overcome, particularly with online/offline. We recently found out that even Google, who not too long ago introduced some offline features for their products, still has very strict limitations on what can be viewed and even more so on what can be edited while offline. Obviously we still want to allow offline viewing, studying and proper syncing when returning online, but we'll see how things develop over the next while and whether it's something that we can properly support.

Regarding flashcard syncing, we'll continue looking into this and see what we can uncover.

Not sure this is the right thread for this but Spanish audio for Who Is She lessons is not working for me in the app.

I open the lesson and it sits at "Time Played: Calculating" forever.

@dcbaok - Are you only having this problem with lessons from this specific collection or with all lessons on the app? Usually if the signal strength is weak then the app stutters when trying to download audio files, so make sure you are well connected as well.

*double post*

I tried 4 lessons from the "Who Is She" collection in Spanish, all of them had the described problem. Additionally the first couple of lessons from "Who Is She" in French had the same problem, I didn't test French further.

Lessons from a different Spanish collection worked. Everything I've tried in Chinese has worked, the German and Arabic "Who Is She" lesson 1 both worked.

I'm on wifi at home doing the testing.

Thanks for pointing this out dcbaok. We'll take a closer look into this to see why the audio isn't playing for some lessons.

We've now uploaded version 2.3.2 which includes fixes for the blue highlighting mentioned above and the issue that prevented some audio files from playing. It also includes more support for older Android versions 1.6, 2.1 and 2.2.

@alex It works great now. In addition, I like the fact that I can select "known" words and still get the definition. Bravo!

Android 2.3.3

Issue:
Push "Info". Select "How to use iLingQ". There are two buttons in the caption - "Back" and "Done". Pushing the "Back" button always cause error: "Application iLingQ has stopped unexpectedly". BTW, the "Done" button gets the user back to "My Lessons", so the "Back" button is redundant.

Wishlist:
Option to disable automatic loading of audio. At present I have to bother with preloading an audio through Wi-fi or turn-off GPRS to avoid traffic charges (anyway, there is no much sense in loading ~15 Mb audio using ~100kbps channel (=25 minutes of waiting).

Thanks for the update, I tested the audio on the lessons I was having trouble with, it is now working.

I found a new problem, the "Large Text" setting in the settings screen isn't working anymore.

This is strange, it isnt giving me the option to update, dunno why

Glad to hear these things are now working properly for you both. Thanks for the additional bug reports, we'll look at getting these fixed as well!

@a5m - As you mentioned, if you open these lessons once while connected via wifi then you'll never have to load them again through the app (unless you clear the cache or the lesson is pushed out of the list). This is actually the biggest reason we added local caching, since we wanted to help users like yourself who can't rely on wireless data to download the audio files. However, perhaps in the near future we can take a look at your suggestion.

@chumnutzly - Are you trying to download it from Google Play? It's also on the Amazon Appstore, but they take a bit longer to test and approve the app so the most recent version isn't yet available there.

@alex
Thank you for your explanation. I am using the program for several days only. Definitely, the local caching is very important. Just to develop my point: Mobile traffic may (or "will"?) cost money, even if it is high-speed connection. I am sure, a user is not really going to *always* listen the audio for *each* of his lessons. Therefore, it is reasonable to make the audio download as option, especially in software developed for mobile device.
Personally, I see the main use of iLingQ as to *review* of my lingqs in context or in flashcards (e.g. during coffee break) or to *preview* the lessons (e.g. downloaded before bedtime or during breakfast) that I plan to study in detail after my work. I am not sure if I ever use the audio as I can't put on headphones while at work; and in the car I listen to MP3 player.

I have a problem with the cache. There is option in the "Settings" named "MP3Cache - 0/100MB" together with the small red button "Delete". I thought 100 MB is the maximum size of the cache. But now I have it like "111/100 MB". "Delete" button do not respond.

I have noticed the text part of the flashcards (in Daily LingQs) does not scroll. When I try to check Phrase+Hint of the flashcard some of the text do not fit into the screen of my smartphone (320x480). It will be really nice to be able to scroll it.

@a5m - Thanks for the feedback about this. We'll look into the issues you've raised. I see what you mean about the lessons, so we'll see if we can slot that in to a future version of the app :)

yes, google play. My version has a date of august 21 and still cannot update, don't know version number, sorry
