What's new
- Version: 4.2.3
- Updated:
- This update focuses on refining the experience and improving stability for AI Book Breakdown and AI OCR. We’ve added a (coarse-grained) screenshot mode for book breakdown with a smoother output workflow, enhanced the Smart Dictionary breakdown and card templates, and made math-heavy and high-frequency card-creation workflows more fluid and controllable.
Highlights
• AI Book Breakdown (Enhanced Screenshot Mode): Optimized for math/science content with a more coarse-grained screenshot breakdown, making complex formulas and charts easier to turn into structured notes.
• Smart Dictionary Breakdown: Introduces automatic title-link creation, supports general concept extraction, adds a dedicated English vocabulary mode, and includes a new Practice Mode for organizing questions into study cards.
• AI OCR Card Templates Upgrade: Introduces template-based configuration (the old prompt-only editing mode is deprecated, but existing prompts remain usable). Supports per-field settings (Rich Text/Markdown, cloze, etc.), plus font and color controls.
Detailed Updates
1) AI Book Breakdown: More Stable, Clearer Output Workflow
• Upgraded to a two-stage workflow: Take notes first → Organize & generate output, breaking the 100-page limit (processing very large batches may require more time and resources).
• Reduced overhead in screenshot mode to lower the cost of large-scale screenshot breakdown.
• Improved output visibility: makes the “note collection” process more transparent and easier to learn from.
• Default output is now Outline/Framework Mode.
• Enhanced question-driven prompts to better support theme-based reading and structured understanding.
2) Smart Dictionary Breakdown: Auto Indexing & Auto Linking
• New Smart Dictionary breakdown with automatic title-link creation for quick indexing and traceability.
• Three modes available:
• General Mode: Structured extraction of concepts, theorems, names, places, and more.
• English Learning Mode: Specialized extraction for vocabulary and language learning.
• Practice Mode: Extracts exercises from documents and organizes them into cards by question number for efficient practice and review.
3) AI OCR: Stronger Card Template System
• New Card Template Configuration:
• Per-field configuration.
• Supports Rich Text or Markdown.
• Supports Cloze (fill-in-the-blank) settings.
• Rich text fields support custom fonts and colors.
• Markdown cloze supports tap-to-reveal answers.
• UI improvements for AI OCR.
4) Stability & Fixes
• Fixed two crash issues.
• Fixed YouTube playback issues.
• Fixed an issue where deleting a # tag could invalidate all tags.
• Fixed an issue where continuous rectangle excerpts could not use AI OCR.
