Points, dashboard and leader boards

2021-01-20


We've been working on some new features and will soon be releasing a new dashboard and leader boards.

Points

Everyone earns points for using Read Listen Learn and for reading and completing stories.

These points are stored in your profile but have not been displayed anywhere before.

What's changing?

Soon we will be adding a new dashboard that will become the new landing or home page in our application.

Whenever anyone access Read Listen Learn, they will be taken to their dashboard, rather than the Explore screen

The dashboard will display your total points earned, a graph of recent activity and the stories you have read most recently.

You will also be able to access the new leader boards that will display the top 10 readers for the day and the last 7 days.

More about leader boards

Everyone will be able to access leader boards and they will display the names and points total of the most active readers.

They will also enable people to view these readers' profiles, including their name, location and photo.

We recommend that everyone update their profile to include a recent photo and a brief introduction.

Of course, not everyone will want to do this and it is already possible to turn off your profile if that is the case.

We will also be adding a facility to enable anyone to opt out of having their information included in the leader boards if they want to.
