Every button on the home screen and in the top bar, explained.

1 min read Updated 20 October 2026 students

The home screen is built around one next action: the course you're working on, and the lesson that's next in it. Around it sit your progress and anything that needs attention.

Top bar#

  • Streak flame - days in a row. Tap it for the streak page and freeze options.
  • Hearts - your lives. Tap to see the refill timer or buy a refill with coins.
  • Coins - earned from practice, spent in the shop and on hearts.
  • Bell - your notice inbox: assignments, class invites, tutor messages and support replies.

Sections#

  • Continue - the lesson you were in the middle of.
  • Your courses - everything you've joined or saved, with a progress ring each.
  • Classes - your tutor's classes with the exam countdown and the next live lesson.
  • Explore - the public course library.
