What's new
New features and improvements in Lingo Mark, newest first.
- v1.9.0App
Marks, colours and notes
- NewMarking a phrase while reading now offers four ways to draw it — marker, underline, wavy line, or strikethrough — in any of four colours. Click a mark to restyle or remove it.
- NewAny mark can carry a note in your own words. Notes read back as text in the side panel, and travel with a shared material.
- NewSelected text can be copied straight from the reader, including on a material someone shared with you.
- FixedA mark now lands on the phrase you selected rather than on the first place those words happen to appear, and it survives crossing bold, italic or link text, or overlapping another mark.
- v1.8.0App
Enhanced dictionary lookup
- ImprovedLooking up a word — while reading or reviewing — now shows richer, more complete meanings, with senses and pronunciations grouped by dictionary and kept up to date.
- ImprovedIn your wordbook and a material’s Collected list, a word’s meaning now shows as a one-line preview you can expand, keeping the focus on your collected words and their sentences.
- v1.7.0App
Jump back to a collected word
- NewA word you collected while reading now links back to that material and scrolls straight to where you collected it — from both the material’s Collected list and your wordbook.
- ImprovedWords collected inside a material no longer show a stray external web link as their source; the link now stays inside the app.
- v1.3.2Extension
Precise source links
- ImprovedWhen you collect a word from a page, its source link now jumps to the exact spot you collected it — even when that word appears several times on the page.
- v1.6.0App
Extension nudge & account menu
- NewThe app now notices when the browser extension isn’t installed in this browser and points you to it, so you can clip and collect from any page.
- NewYour avatar in the top bar is now a menu — jump to Settings or sign out from anywhere.
- ImprovedAlready signed in? The homepage now takes you straight into the app instead of showing “Sign in”.
- FixedCollecting or adding a word now keeps entries to a single word, so a whole sentence can’t slip into a wordbook by mistake.
- v1.3.1Extension
Clearer collect errors
- FixedWhen a word can’t be collected, the toast now tells you why (for example, “Enter a single word”) instead of a generic message.
- v1.5.0App
Subscription plans
- NewPlus and Pro plans for higher limits on learning materials, wordbooks, and collected words — with a new pricing page and a Plan & usage view to see where you stand.
- ImprovedSettings now shows a quick summary of your plan and usage, with a link to manage it.
- v1.4.0App
Guided start for new learners
- NewNew here? A short walkthrough now greets you: open your sample article, turn on highlighting, collect a word, and annotate a sentence — then add the browser extension to clip pages you read. Skip it anytime.
- NewEvery new account starts with a sample article, so there is something to read and mark from your very first visit.
- v1.3.0Extension
Faster extension connect
- ImprovedInstalling the extension now opens the connect page automatically, so linking it to your account is one less step.
- v1.3.0App
Chinese word lookup
- NewSelect any word while reading — in the app or on any web page via the extension — to see its Chinese meaning, phonetic, and part of speech right there, without leaving for a dictionary. Tap the speaker to hear the US or UK pronunciation.
- NewCollected words now keep their Chinese meaning, phonetic, and part of speech, so reviewing a wordbook is no longer English-only.
- NewNine new preset word lists to highlight against: 初中, 高中, 考研, IELTS, TOEFL, GRE, SAT, GMAT, and BEC.
- v1.2.0Extension
Chinese meaning on collect
- NewCollecting a word from a web page now shows its Chinese meaning in the confirmation.
- v1.2.2App
Snappier loading
- ImprovedPages now show a preview of their layout the moment you open them, so nothing feels frozen while it loads. Buttons also show a spinner while they save, delete, or collect — you can always see when something is working.
- v1.2.1App
One-click download
- ImprovedDownloading the extension from Settings now starts instantly and picks the right build for your browser — no more hunting through a release page.
- v1.2.0App
Verify your email
- NewNew accounts confirm their email with a one-time link before signing in, so your account stays tied to an address you own.
- v1.1.3Extension
New home
