- Keep account actions together You can now open one header menu to quickly reach Pricing or sign out without cluttering the main navigation.
- Avoid starting without credits You see a clear message and are redirected before starting practice when your credits are exhausted, so you avoid a blocked session and know why you cannot continue.
- See your checkout result right away You can now see a clear success or cancellation message when you return to the app after checkout, so you know whether your payment completed.
- Credits apply when you start speaking You keep your session credit if you never begin a voice response. A credit is used only after your first spoken response starts the session.
