🚀 What's New in IMMERSEAD_4nXeQCSo6vEkUi22QdXIViCTf9BERCMgD6jVQuLG4BSg4wQzRmKKesKW71UiS9dCrVoPK4kQEfvc9KCJVRqUhXe_By6PnlvO4FVD38MnaVPs-w4EmW5IVuE2HZ8EPIdNbRZgkYQm50A 

This update brings a new level for our Portuguese learners, a smarter speech recognition system, and push notifications on mobile — plus a batch of fixes across the platform. Here's everything that's new.


🌍 Portuguese Level 5 Is Here

Portuguese learners can now progress all the way to Level 5 (B2 CEFR).

  • New learners can be placed directly into Level 5 during onboarding if they meet the requirements
  • Existing learners can access Level 5 through their account settings
  • A new level-up assessment helps Level 4 learners find out if they're ready to move up


🎙️ Smarter Speech Recognition

We've upgraded the speech recognition system behind self-paced lessons and Coach, on both web and mobile.

  • Better recognition of accents and slightly imperfect pronunciation
  • Improved support for learners who mix their target language and native language while speaking with the AI


🔔 Push Notifications on Mobile

The IMMERSE mobile app now supports push notifications, so you can stay on top of your learning without opening the app.


🎯 Continued Improvements to Capture

We've made small design refinements to the Capture tab, and our coaching AI keeps getting smarter under the hood — helping every Coached conversation feel a little more natural over time.


🛠️ Bug Fixes & Improvements

We've resolved several issues across the platform for a smoother experience:

VR Fixes:

  • Leaving the placement test or tutorial now shows a clear message that you're exiting, instead of a long, unexplained loading screen
  • Lecture screens now correctly display longer blocks of text without getting cut off

Web & Mobile Fixes:

  • Japan-based learners now see subscription pricing in Yen at checkout
  • Speech-to-text is now less likely to time out
  • Upcoming classes now display correctly in the welcome flow
  • Fixed an issue where classes with long descriptions could not be booked on mobile


🧑‍💼 For Program Administrators

A few updates for those managing IMMERSE for their teams:

  • Custom date ranges are now available as a filter in the learner view
  • Filtering learners by starting level, or by all levels, now returns accurate results
  • HR Admins who belong to multiple institutions no longer see incorrect custom fields when adding a new learner
  • "Add Learner" is now always selectable, even when "All Contracts" is selected
  • Fixed an issue where certain timed self-paced activities could inflate a learner's time-on-site in reporting
