Generate notes and flashcards, referral program, response improvements and more

We gave Anara the ability to generate components based on your request. For now, this means you can create flashcards and notes directly through the chat! When viewing a file or group, simply ask Anara to generate research materials from that content. Try "Generate flashcards to help me understand chapter 6" or "Create summary notes for this article."

This update also includes a new referral program. You can now earn $10 cash just by referring a friend to Anara. You get $10 cash, they get a $10 discount. If you know anyone who wants to save time on their research work or studies - now’s a great time to invite them.

And we made a pretty significant change to how our AI constructs responses when drawing from a source file. This update improves the accuracy and comprehensiveness of AI-generated content across all “chat with” features (e.g. chat with document, chat with video). It went live on Feb 13 - you should notice a much better response quality since then.

Improvements

• Added support for Gemini Flash 2.0, Google's latest and most powerful model, for all paying users.
• We modified how in-text references in chat messages are displayed. Previously, reference numbers indicated the source page number. Now, references are numbered sequentially within each response (1, 2, 3, etc.), similar to in-text citations. The functionality remains the same - clicking a reference number will still scroll you to the corresponding section.
• Wrote a new onboarding guide detailing information on how to get started with Anara. Users who signed up after Feb 16 will see the new guide in their libraries.
• Made various improvements to our audio recording features, including much improved audio transcription quality and reliability.
• Added Venmo support for referral program payouts. Initially, we launched this feature with just PayPal payout support.
• Launched a new automated email series for new users with helpful tips and guides for getting the most out of Anara. You can easily opt out by clicking "Unsubscribe" in any email.

Fixes

• Fixed a bug that prevented the language selector menu from scrolling properly.
• Fixed an issue where the delete link accessed via support wasn't functioning properly.
• Fixed an issue where some audio files failed to import properly
• Fixed an issue where audio recordings longer than 30 minutes could cause the app to crash.
• Fixed an issue where flashcards were being generated when the request was actually for a list of practice questions.
• Fixed an issue where some users were unable to upload images due to a file format validation error.
• Fixed an issue where results in the "Find citations..." menu weren't not loading in some cases.
