You earn XP by completing learning sessions and answering questions correctly. The more questions you get right, the more XP you earn! You can also earn bonus XP from daily challenges and earning badges.
What are levels?expand_more
Levels show how much you have learned! Every time you earn enough XP, you level up. There are 10 levels: Rookie, Learner, Explorer, Achiever, Scholar, Expert, Master, Champion, Legend, and Genius!
How do I earn badges?expand_more
Badges are special rewards for completing goals! You can earn badges by finishing your first session, getting perfect scores, keeping up your daily streak, and mastering subjects.
