Back to changelog
v2.9.0August 17, 2026
New Features
- EasyDictation now speaks Japanese and Chinese: The whole interface is available in Japanese at easydictation.app/ja and Simplified Chinese at easydictation.app/zh, along with the blog, this changelog, the bookstore, and article diagrams redrawn in each language. Pick one from the language menu. Learn English without having to read English first.
- Review direction follows your own language: The Auto / native → EN / EN → native selector in review sessions now names the language you actually set instead of always saying Vietnamese. Whatever you chose is what the button says.
- A 404 page that points somewhere: Open a page that does not exist and the message arrives in your language, with three ways out: back to practice, back home, or over to the blog.
Fixes
- Dialogs no longer answer in Vietnamese: The reprocess-this-video dialog, the resume-from-sentence dialog, the read-aloud setting and the video error screen were showing Vietnamese to everyone, including people reading the English interface. You read one language, the app answers in it.
- The Usage page is translated: Plan cards, quota labels and the upgrade panel were English-only, for Vietnamese readers too.
- Start-page filters are translated: The Level, Duration and Topic chips no longer stay in English.
- Notification times follow the language: The bell said "3 hours ago" no matter which language you were using.
- The add-video dialog is fully translated: The line explaining that AI builds the transcript and translation stayed in English for Vietnamese readers.
