Hi all,

Learning Platform on any device Used every day by nearly 3 million children 
around the world ...





Main features in this new version:

  *   Speak activity: The famous Sugar Speak activity: anything you type will 
be spoken aloud using the speech synthesizer.
  *   Moon activity: Another famous Sugar activity. A Moon phase viewer, 
includes Lunar phase information and eclipse data.
  *   Video Viewer activity: A generic video viewer, explore a predefined 
libraries (Khan Academy, Canopé) or import your own library and share it with 
others in the Journal.
  *   Shared Notes activity: A shared board where you could stick Post-It notes 
and share it in real time with others using presence.
  *   Updated Etoys activity: Latest version of Etoys is now included in the 
Sugarizer package.
  *   Windows 10:  Sugarizer is now available in the Windows Store [1]. So if 
you've got a PC on Windows, Sugarizer is one click long from you.
  *   Performance improvement: script optimization and lazy loading of data had 
dramatically improve performance in all activities.
  *   Better touch support: a new scrollable home view and a better handling of 
long touch on touch screens of any size.
  *   Application size reduction: Sugarizer application size is now under 50Mb.
  *   Portuguese localization: a new language support for our friends from 
Portugal and Brazil,
  *   SugarLabs inside: Sugarizer source code is now in SugarLabs repository 
[8].



New in Sugarizer 0.8 for Android is "Sugarizer OS". Sugarizer OS is a way to 
use Sugarizer as your Android Launcher on the device. So you could have the 
same experience with Sugarizer on your tablet/smartphone that you've got with 
Sugar on the XO laptop. More specifically, Sugarizer OS features are:

  *   Directly boot the device on Sugarizer home view (no more Android stuff)
  *   Full features and activities of Sugarizer (Sugarizer and Sugarizer OS 
share the same code)
  *   Include both Sugarizer activities and Android applications in your home 
view using favorites feature
  *   Launch Android applications from Sugarizer home view
  *   Journal will trace both Sugarizer and Android application launch
  *   Launch Android settings from the Sugarizer settings dialog
  *   Manage WiFi connection from the Sugarizer neighborhood view (like in 
Sugar)



With Sugarizer OS, Sugar on Android is now a reality: enjoy the experience and 
spread the world with Sugarizer !



Sugarizer 0.8 is available on: Windows Store [1], Google Play [2], Amazon Store 
[3], Apple Store [4], Chrome Web Store [5] and F-droid [6].
