Introduce New Duolingo onboarding screen 1: This is a re-onboarding, not a new-user flow1
This is a re-onboarding, not a new-user flow. Ship a big redesign and you risk confusing your existing base and spiking churn, so Duolingo wraps the change in an animated story instead of dropping people on a different home screen cold. 'SEE WHAT'S NEW' frames the disruption as a reward. I'd test whether forcing the tour beats letting power users skip straight to the path.

Introduce New Duolingo onboarding screen 5: Leading with 'follow a path crafted by our learning experts' is an authority play5
Leading with 'follow a path crafted by our learning experts' is an authority play. It reframes a forced UI change as expert curation, so the new path reads as an upgrade instead of something taken away. And they show the actual path mockup instead of telling, which always beats a wall of explainer text.

Introduce New Duolingo onboarding screen 10: 'Our popular short stories are now built into the path.' Smart10
'Our popular short stories are now built into the path.' Smart. The real risk in any redesign is users thinking you killed the feature they loved, so they name Short Stories directly and say it still exists, just in a new home. Call out the thing people might think you removed.

Introduce New Duolingo onboarding screen 20: This is the most important screen in the flow20
This is the most important screen in the flow. The number one fear in a redesign is 'did I lose my streak and my progress.' 'We kept all the progress you've made so far' kills that churn trigger before it fires. Loss aversion runs deep with Duolingo's streak crowd, so reassuring them up front is exactly right.

Introduce New Duolingo onboarding screen 22: Ends by pushing straight back into the product: 'take the next step on your learning journey.' Good instinct22
Ends by pushing straight back into the product: 'take the next step on your learning journey.' Good instinct. A what's-new tour should dump you into the actual path, not a dead-end confirmation. The whole thing is animated and narrated rather than static tap-through, which keeps a forced update from feeling like a chore.
