Understand / lifespan Public design record

Product history, starting here

What the app became,
one revision at a time.

A living record of Understand, an offline listening companion for difficult text. Start with the current design checkpoint. Older chapters will be added without rewriting this one.

The first preserved chapter

One place to see what changed, what is fixed, and what comes next.

The current package turns the redesign into something you can walk through. Library owns the durable root. Reader owns the listening surface. The matter orb owns play and pause. Voice preview stays inside the Voice sheet. The heard sentence gets the strongest contrast.

Five specialist reviews fed this revision. The package covers 78 canonical states and leaves eight owner decisions visible instead of burying them in a report.

Now · Revision 05Current

The design package is ready to decide.

Five reviews became one package. The current record holds 78 states, three locked owner anchors, and eight decisions that still shape the Flutter port.

The earlier versions stay untouched.

Older explorations and prior state packages will come here later. They are not rewritten into the current story, and they are not being presented as release history yet.
