What's in Cue

Plain-English explanations of everything we've added — and answers to questions you might have.

Session Safety + Bug Fixes

A round of fixes focused on protecting you from losing work mid-session — whether you're in a study session, an SAT practice test, or a live Cue game. We also fixed a handful of confusing UI moments.

SAT test progress is now saved — close the tab without losing your attempt

If you accidentally close the browser tab, navigate away, or your computer crashes during an SAT practice test, your progress is now saved automatically. When you go back to the SAT prep page you'll see a resume banner — pick up exactly where you left off, including the timer. Drafts expire after 48 hours.

Active sessions now block accidental navigation

While you're in a study session, SAT test, or a live Cue game (Ranked or Match), the app now shows a browser warning if you try to close the tab or navigate away. This protects you from accidentally losing your place in a game or test. The warning only appears during active sessions — it won't interrupt you on any other page.

SAT reading questions now display correctly

A number of SAT Reading & Writing questions were showing up without a visible question — just the passage, with nothing asking you to actually do anything. The passage and question sentence are now always shown separately with a clear label. All existing questions in the bank have been fixed.

Multiplayer matchmaking timeout

If you join the matchmaking queue and no one else is available after 90 seconds, Cue now tells you instead of letting you wait indefinitely. You can choose to stay in the queue or leave.

Other small fixes

A few more improvements: the lobby page now shows a visual overlay when a game is starting so it's clear you can't change settings anymore. The study session complete page now shows a loading state instead of a blank flash while the AI insight loads. The mnemonic hint button no longer gets stuck in a spinning state. Loading errors now show a helpful message instead of silently redirecting you away.

Dashboard Refresh + Quick Review

The home dashboard got a cleanup — less noise, clearer focus on what to do next. We also added a quick-review mode so you can knock out a few cards without leaving the dashboard, and fixed a bug that stopped SAT practice from loading for everyone.

Cleaner dashboard

We cut a few sections that were repeating the same information in different ways — the giant greeting, the duplicate plan strips, and the orphaned rows. The Today's Plan strip stayed but only shows what's actually relevant to you right now. If you're all caught up, it tells you that instead of pushing you to do something unnecessary.

Cards recommended for review

Today's Plan now shows a row for cards that are coming up in your queue — ordered by how overdue they are. Click it to see which ones Cue thinks you're most likely to forget.

Quick review — answer cards without leaving the dashboard

You can now flip through recommended cards right inside the dashboard. See the question, tap 'Show answer', then mark it as got it or missed it. Cue grades it in the background and moves straight to the next one. When you finish a batch, you can keep going or stop — it's designed to take 2 minutes, not 20.

SAT practice quota bug fix

A bug was stopping the SAT practice test from starting for everyone — including accounts that hadn't used any attempts yet. The error was in how our server checked your remaining test count. It's fixed now and your attempt count was not affected.

SAT Prep + Camera Fix

This update adds a full SAT practice test experience — something we've been building toward for a while. It also fixes a camera bug that was breaking the scan feature on laptops.

Full-length SAT practice tests

You can now take a complete digital SAT inside Cue — 98 questions split across Reading & Writing (54 questions, ~64 minutes) and Math (44 questions, ~70 minutes). It's timed just like the real thing, with a break between sections.

Adaptive difficulty between modules

The SAT uses a two-module format: you take Module 1, and based on how you do, Module 2 is either harder or easier. Cue does the same thing. Score 65% or above on Module 1 and you get the harder Module 2 — which means a higher score ceiling.

Skill-by-skill results breakdown

After finishing, you see your results organized by skill — things like 'Linear equations', 'Transitions', or 'Command of Evidence'. Skills where you got less than 60% are flagged. Tap any skill to see the specific questions you missed.

Camera scanning fix

The camera on the Scan page was failing on laptops and desktops because it was asking specifically for a rear-facing camera (which most computers don't have). It now falls back to whichever camera is available. Error messages also clearly tell you whether it's a permission issue or a hardware issue.
