pyontan v0.4.2 Changelog

I'm throwing version 0.4.2 at all of y'alls faces, so take that! Here's what's new.


Additions:

App:

  • Added an auto-updater, pyontan can now update itself! It will do full reinstalls
  • There is now an apply button (saves without closing)
  • Settings > Cloud shows whether a sync token is linked and has a disconnect button now
  • Proper sign out functionality (you don't need to force sign the session out now)
  • Can access saved live history audio clips, in History > Voice History there is a new clips column
  • Can choose to keep & delete audio clips from voice history
  • Signing in after signing out asks the browser which account to use
  • Study > Practice now has a Manage button for reviews

Dashboard:

  • New Reviews Page (Study > Reviews)
  • My Vocabulary has a Remove button on each word
  • Two-way sync between review items and resetting Study progress and removing a saved word sync
  • The desktop Sync now checks based on actual sync, not on a job being completed

Updated:

App:

  • Reduced the download size greatly of the app
  • Live Audio's speech detection is about 3x faster without PyTorch.
  • Offline translation now sits in RAM only when being used and freed up like other Models
  • Offline translation now splits long text at sentence ends
  • Shortened Tray Menu
  • Translation tab has been removed in favor of Providers

Dashboard:

  • Study > Practice no longer says how many are due without a way to reach it

Fixes:

App:

  • The tray menu and right-click menus have properly rounded corners (oopsie daisies)
  • Live Audio history sync no longer fails
  • Uploading a finished job when the pictures moved or deleted will ask for a new location
  • Finishing the getting started checklist on one account no longer hides it from other accounts
  • Saving settings should no longer freeze up for a second (I was noticing this to be a thing)

Dashboard:

  • Fixed some of the buttons
  • The locked AI Conversation page said you're on the wrong tier to everyone

Deleted:

  • Removed argostranslate as the offline translation model
  • PyTorch is no longer in the installer, it has been removed, Manga-OCR installs it separately
  • SciPy is removed from the installer
