Product Updates

What's New

We're constantly improving your learning experience with new features and updates

A note on this history: some earlier experiments did not become part of today's product. PingLearn teaches through typed chat. Paid plans mentioned in older entries are not yet live. PingLearn is free for 30 days; no card needed.

Always-On Reliability & Free-Access Groundwork

New Features

  • •Behind the scenes, PingLearn now watches itself around the clock from two locations and alerts us within minutes if anything goes wrong — so problems get fixed faster, often before you notice them
  • •Groundwork is in place for a 30-day free-access period for new accounts: you'll see how many days remain, with a friendly heads-up as the period nears its end (not switched on yet — everything stays free for now)
  • •The iPhone and Android apps gained the same free-access screens, so the experience will match across web and mobile when the period begins

Improvements

  • •Faster, more reliable page loads and quicker recovery if a background service has a brief hiccup
