What's new

Everything we've shipped

Newest first. We ship small and often, so this page moves more than the roadmap does.

Simpler cards, faster topics

Quick cards are just cards now, moving from one card to the next takes one click instead of two, and photos dropped on Tasks become tasks.

  • Quick cards are now simply cards. The section in a space is called Cards and holds the ones that aren't in a topic — same cards, clearer name.
  • Clicking another card while you're editing one opens it in a single click. The card you were in saves and closes on its own.
  • Writing an answer is one step: "+ Add answer" opens the answer field right away, with Fill, dictation, and the AI actions on the field itself instead of a row of buttons in between.
  • Cmd-click (Ctrl-click on Windows) a card to open its page in a new browser tab.
  • Add topic below, from any topic's menu — the new topic lands right under that one. And creating a topic from a space keeps you on the space, with the new row highlighted, instead of dropping you into an empty topic.
  • Change a space's icon straight from its title, the way topics already worked.
  • Drop photos on the Tasks page and each one becomes its own task: the photo becomes the description and shows as a thumbnail on the row.
  • Notebooks: the Shapes tool now stays active after you draw, so you can draw several in a row. If you'd rather the finished shape be handed to the select tool, turn the pin off in the shapes row.
  • Study counts on space and topic headers no longer pop in and push the page down while they load.
  • Fixed: opening Mento straight on the Inbox could show it empty until you reloaded.

Guided tours, calmer email

A spotlight tour shows you around, email goes quiet unless you ask for it, and edits from another device stop overwriting what you're typing.

  • Take a tour: a spotlight walkthrough of the home screen and of any topic page, started from the getting-started checklist, Settings, or the topic menu. It never starts on its own.
  • Fewer emails. The weekly digest, the review email, and the emailed study reminder are now off unless you turn them on in Settings → Notifications. Push reminders on your phone are unchanged.
  • Fixed: the unsubscribe link at the bottom of every email now works.
  • Edits from another tab or device no longer wipe what you're typing. A card saves on top of the other change, and only if you both edited the same field does Mento ask which version to keep.
  • An Official badge on Mento's own library decks in Explore, so you can tell first-party content from community uploads.
  • Progress bars on spaces and topics stay hidden until you've actually studied something, and hovering one explains the colors.
  • Image maps: the hotspot popover no longer covers the resize handle.
  • A new Tips and tricks article in the manual, plus refreshed guides for phone capture, quick capture and inbox, image maps, and course setup, with new screenshots.
  • New accounts start with a shorter Learn Mento guide: 32 cards across 7 topics, enough to see how studying works without a long read.

Plan your week, track your progress

Tasks, a calendar, and a daily note arrive — and studying gains streaks with freezes, a practice heatmap, and mastery at a glance.

  • Mento for Android is on Google Play — the full app, in sync with the web. Mento is now on every platform.
  • Turn any line in your notes into a task with a due date, a reminder, and repeats — and see everything that's due in one place. Included with Pro and Student.
  • A calendar that gathers your deadlines, reviews, and plans in one view — and a daily note, a page of its own for every day.
  • A study heatmap: your last twelve weeks of practice at a glance, next to your current and best streak. Every sixth day of practice banks a streak freeze that covers a missed day automatically.
  • Mastery bars for every space and topic, and a small progress mark on each card so you can tell what's solid from what still needs work. You can turn the marks off in your study settings.
  • Search inside a topic: find a word across every card on the page, with matches highlighted and arrows to jump between them.
  • The guides grew into a real manual — step-by-step articles with fresh screenshots, video walkthroughs, and a keyboard-shortcuts reference.
  • Fixed: daily practice no longer refills your session with cards that are scheduled to rest, so new material actually gets through.
  • Fixed: archived spaces no longer appear in global search.

Seven languages and unlimited storage

Mento now speaks Italian and Polish, and paid plans stop counting gigabytes.

  • The whole app in Italian and Polish — every screen, the mobile app, and the emails we send you. That makes seven languages.
  • Unlimited file storage on Pro and Student. Cards and notes have always been unlimited on every plan — now your uploaded files are too.
  • Fixed: if an ad blocker blocks Google or Apple sign-in, the button now says so instead of silently doing nothing.

Three new languages

Mento now speaks Portuguese, German, and French — with a round of study and editor polish along the way.

  • The whole app in Portuguese, German, and French — every screen, the mobile app, and the emails we send you. Pick your language in Settings, or let Mento follow your device.
  • Mento for iPhone and iPad is on the App Store — the full app, in sync with the web.
  • AI answers now follow the language of your study material instead of the language of your screen — answer choices included.
  • Editor upgrades: select several blocks and turn them into something else in one move, and choose whether pasted Markdown gets formatted or stays plain text.
  • Fixed: the “This week” stats now count your daily practice sessions.

Help, FAQ, and a roadmap

Somewhere to find answers without waiting on an email, and an honest look at what we're building next.

  • A help center and a full FAQ covering plans, storage, privacy, and how studying in Mento works.
  • A public roadmap showing what's in progress and what shipped recently.
  • This changelog, so you can see exactly what changed and when.
