Captured from the installed pre-release macOS build on 2026-09-03, with the user's Simplified Chinese interface retained. The main guide also includes fresh word-detail, related-word, and downloaded-textbook screenshots.
Learning records stay in local SQLite storage, without built-in cloud sync. A repeated lookup increases lookup demand; recall changes after a submitted practice answer. Credentials stay in native system-vault storage, and the web interface receives status rather than secret values.
Selection access may read surrounding accessibility text to record a local example; it does not use screenshots, OCR, or an automatic clipboard fallback. Translation requests send the requested text and language direction to the selected provider, not the saved example. Explicit enrichment, provider checks, language retrieval, and textbook downloads can also use the network.
Related words use verified local lexical data and compatible installed textbooks, not embeddings or an LLM. “All meanings” refers to available saved senses, not complete dictionary coverage for every word.
