๐Ÿ”Missed-Question Review
๐ŸŽ‰ New in v1.17.0

What's new.

A smarter way to prep for exam day, plus your leaderboard rank finally matches your real progress.

๐ŸŽฏ
Smart Exam: practice built from your weak spots
A new practice exam type that pulls your overdue review questions first, then tops up with fresh questions from the topics you're struggling with most โ€” no more guessing what to study next before a real test.
๐Ÿ†
Leaderboard now matches your real XP
Fixed a formula mismatch that could show a different XP total on the leaderboard than on your own Level screen. Both now use the exact same calculation, streaks and all.
๐Ÿ› ๏ธ
Smoother and more reliable across the board
Fixed a rare case where an in-progress lesson completion could be lost during background sync, an occasional incorrect Clinical Case score, and improved how quiz results sync back once you're online again.
๐Ÿ“ฆ Earlier โ€” v1.16.0

Also in recent updates.

The illustration program finished โ€” there is no longer a single lesson in the app without its diagram โ€” and every lesson now cites its sources too.

๐Ÿ–ผ๏ธ
The last eight diagrams are in
Breathing mechanics, gas exchange in the alveoli, the nephron, the RAAS cascade, resting and action potentials, partial pressures, and the drug concentration triangle. Every lesson in every module is now fully illustrated โ€” nothing left to draw.
๐Ÿ“š
A citation on every single lesson
Every lesson now lists the medical textbooks, peer-reviewed papers and health-authority guidelines it draws on โ€” Guyton & Hall, Gray's Anatomy, Alberts, Lehninger, Robbins, Janeway, the WHO and Australian clinical guidelines among them. Check the reasoning behind anything you read.
๐Ÿ”ฅ
Streaks now follow your day, not the clock in London
Study streaks were being counted against UTC, which meant your day rolled over mid-morning. They now track your own local calendar day. Some streak numbers will shift as a result โ€” the new figure is the accurate one.
