I’ve been using automagic for a while now. It has covered all of the vocabulary from the challenges up until the end of Section 3 Challenge 21, but now just seems to be going around in circles. Will the other challenges be added to automagic in due course or have I finished it?
Thanks
We’re still working on recovering all the Welsh from the previous courses and getting it in there. We’re getting closer, and it should be all in the new version which we’re testing now.
Great. And thanks for the quick reply. Is there a target release date for the new version?
It should be this coming week 
Perfect - thanks again!
Is there any update on this? I saw on another thread that there was a beta for some users - any chance I could be added to that if it contains more content? Many thanks.
Hi @CZMCZM
If you go to the App store and search for SaySomethingIn (no spaces) you will find the betarelease.
There is a huuuge amount of work going into the languages development and testing at the moment - and we hope to have some news on the Southern Welsh course this coming week.

Thanks Rich. Great to see that there will be an app for it. The beta doesn’t seem to remember my progress to date, and I can’t find a way to speed it up (I’m using the fire rocket dragon setting in the browser). The progress isn’t a huge issue, as I can just skip through until it sounds like I am roughly where I need to be, but the speed is set painfully slow at the moment. Will the speed settings be moved over to the app also?
Many thanks.
This sounds as though you’re in the comparatively small set of people who would rather go faster and be pushed more - which is my learning profile, and Tom’s, so we’ve always tended to over-correct in that direction, which hasn’t been great for the significant majority of people who would rather feel a bit more in control!
We’re very, very keen to minimise the settings in the app (because in my experience, it’s surprisingly difficult for most people to get a really clear understanding of the implications of the different settings) - but we’ve got a very exciting project for next year which we think will let us adapt on the fly to how well people are doing - and at that point, we should finally be a really good fit whether people want to go slowly or quickly.
In the meantime, skipping ahead will also cue changes in speed, and once we’re through the hurlyburly of getting the new range of courses out there, we’ll be able to fine tune that based on what people tell us about their experience, so it will be particularly helpful to hear how you find things over the next 4 to 6 weeks
Hi Aran,
Thanks for your response.
I was a little sceptical about the messaging around ignoring perfection and staying in the 10%. If was only after maybe 30 hours or so that I realised just how much had gone in, and how effective it had become. That is why I was pressing for the new material to try and stay in that 10% zone. I’m now nearly a hundred hours in and there are only a few things that trip me up. I will have play around with the app and see how I get on.

Oh, I’m delighted to hear that you’re one of the people who have moved towards embracing the 10% - getting to that sweet spot is definitely going to be the goal with the assessment project next year - right now, we’re probably more or less switching from being at about 20/30% beyond most people to about 10/20% inside the comfort zone for most people - it’s probably our most inherently complex pieces of course design.
The key concept for us at the moment is that although the 10% zone is where optimal gains happen, we still get very significant gains (especially measured over time against more traditional approaches) when we’re slightly within the comfort zone - so we’re trying to broaden the church at first, and then when resources allow, build a more sophisticated route to nudging people into the 10%
