And the advanced features are designed for such scenarios:

- Tagging for categorization.
- Insert images to a poem. The image could be embedded, locally hosted or external.
- The readers will read, browse and search poems on PC, tablets and smartphones.
- Allocate poems into albums.
- For Chinese poets and respective readers, the Chinese edition of the app provides simplified/traditional Chinese conversion.
