Global Leaderboard

A new Global Board tab on the Leaderboard shows the top 10 students from across the entire app — not just your school — ranked by study XP.

🥇
Top 10 students worldwide
The Global Board ranks the best students across all schools by total study XP earned through completed sessions.
🏅
Gold, silver & bronze medals
The top 3 spots are highlighted with 🥇🥈🥉 medal icons and glowing cards that stand out in the list.
📍
See your own global rank
If you're in the global top 10, your entry is highlighted. If not, a card shows your standing and motivates you to keep studying.
🏫
School Board tab unchanged
Your school leaderboard is still exactly where it was — Global Board is a new tab alongside it, not a replacement.
v1.2.7 Feature April 2026
Fixes & Reliability
⏱️
Focus timer keeps running in the background
Switching tabs or apps no longer pauses your focus timer. It now ticks accurately in the background and sends you a notification when it finishes.
🔄
Everything survives a page reload
Focus timers, study sessions, quiz progress, BrainBattle rooms, and AI chat history all resume exactly where you left off after refreshing the page.
🛡️
No more accidentally stacking sessions
Starting a new session while one is already running now asks whether you want to continue the old one or end it first — so you never lose progress by accident. You can also close all running sessions at once.
▶️
Resuming a session continues from where you stopped
Reopening an active session now restores the exact time remaining on your current checkpoint instead of resetting to zero.
🏆
Focus timer XP and analytics now working correctly
Completed focus sessions now correctly count toward your XP, total study time, and all analytics charts — they were being silently dropped before.
🎮
BrainBattle reconnects properly for all players
Reloading mid-battle now drops everyone — host and players — back into the correct screen with their answers and scores intact. Players can no longer re-select questions after refreshing.
🔢
Focus timer no longer flashes 00:00
The timer display now resets cleanly after a session completes instead of briefly showing zero before switching to the next mode.
v1.2.6 Feature April 2026
New Features
🌐

Attach any image or file to a message. Images render inline in the chat; other files appear as a tappable download link.
💻
Code sharing with syntax highlight
Tap the code icon to paste a snippet — it renders in a monospaced highlighted block, great for sharing solutions or equations with classmates.
↩️
Reply-to threading
Tap the reply icon on any message to quote it. Your reply shows the original sender's name and a preview, keeping conversations easy to follow.
🚩
Per-message reporting
Report any message that breaks community guidelines. Reports are sent to admins silently — the sender is not notified.
👥
Study Groups — Overhauled

Groups now have four dedicated tabs inside every room: Chat, Forum, Members, and Settings. Only members can see a group — no public discovery, no Discover tab.

💬
Chat tab
Full real-time chat inside the group — same tools as Global Chat: file/image uploads, code blocks, reply-to threads, per-message report, and delete your own messages.
📋
Forum tab — threaded Q&A
Post discussion threads with a title and body. Members reply, and the thread owner can mark one reply as the Accepted Answer — the thread then shows as resolved.
👤
Members tab
See every member of the group. Copy the invite link or the 6-character invite code from this tab to share with classmates.
⚙️
Settings tab
Group owners can rename the group or permanently delete it. Members can leave and rejoin at any time using the invite code.
🔗
Invite code & direct link joining
Join by typing a 6-character code or visiting a direct link (/student/groups?join=CODE) — the code pre-fills automatically so joining takes one tap.
⚔️
BrainBattle — Improvements

Fairer scoring and faster rounds in the real-time quiz arena.

v1.2.5 Feature April 2026
Study Music — Major Update
🎵
Persistent Player — Music follows you everywhere

Music no longer stops when you leave the Study Music page. A mini player bar now floats at the bottom of every page in the app so you stay in control without interrupting your flow.

▶️
Play, Pause, Skip — from anywhere
The mini player bar appears at the bottom of every page while music is playing. Control playback without going back to the music page.
🎬
YouTube Playlists with autoplay, shuffle & repeat
Add any YouTube video or playlist URL to a named playlist saved to your account. Supports autoplay, shuffle, and repeat modes.
📡
Audio Only Mode — saves mobile data
Switch to Audio Only and only the sound loads — the video is never rendered. Ideal when on mobile data. Music still persists across all pages.
⏱️
Auto-Stop Timer
Set a timer (15 to 90 minutes) and music stops automatically — so you don't study for too long without a break.
v1.2.4 Feature March 2026
