// CHANGELOG, HQ-05

What shipped.
When. Why.

No marketing bullets. Just the diff between yesterday and today, in plain language.

Test Prep & AP Courses
v1.2.51
July 15, 2026
  • Standardized Test Prep, practice for ISEE, SSAT, HSPT, ACT, PSAT, and SAT, each matched to the exam's real, current format and question counts
  • Full practice tests run with real per section timing, or take a quick diagnostic of about one question per topic to surface your weak spots fast
  • AI graded essays for the tests that have a writing section, with feedback tied back to your topic mastery
  • Personalized homework, Aluma assembles a focused set from the exact topics you missed, sized to how many nights a week you can study, and it stays inside Test Prep so it never clutters your Assignments
  • Every question you answer feeds your Learn page, so topic mastery updates automatically as you practice
  • AP Courses, multiple choice practice for every current AP subject, from Biology and Calculus to US History, Psychology, and the languages, take a set, get scored, and watch weak topics surface in your topic breakdown
  • Both sections share Aluma's mastery ledger, practice anywhere and your Learn page reflects it with no extra steps
The Mastery Beta
v1.2.44
July 13, 2026
  • School Hub turns your synced classes and assignments into one clear starting point, no more hunting across tabs to figure out what to do next
  • Learn automatically tracks every topic as learning, needs work, or mastered, built from what you actually do in the app, not self reported
  • Guided Walkthrough maps an assignment, opens the source when available, and starts with a diagnostic question before it teaches anything
  • Quizzes are now generated from your own learning ledger, including the weak topics that need another pass, no more generic practice
  • Tutor checks understanding before moving on and uses transfer questions, an explanation is no longer treated as proof you got it
  • Simpler main navigation, School Hub, Learn, Classes, Assignments, Tutor, Discover, Connect, Search, and Settings all within reach
  • New accounts land straight in the product, no long mandatory tutorial to sit through first
  • Refined blue Liquid Glass interface with a quieter, Codex inspired structure
  • Public pages, sign up, verification email, and welcome email all clearly identify Aluma as a beta product that is still being tested
  • Welcome copy no longer implies Aluma does homework for you, mastery over shortcuts
  • Mobile navigation drawer works across every view, its background layer no longer blocks the links you are trying to tap
  • App shell and Memories filters no longer spill beyond the screen on smaller devices
  • Plan comparison is easier to read and clearly indicates it scrolls sideways on mobile
  • Google account sign in is available when configured, unfinished providers no longer appear as working buttons
  • Desktop access is tied to your signed in account, not just the installed app, protecting AI usage, device sync, preferences, and account wipes/deletion
  • The server applies your actual plan and model access even if a desktop client is modified
  • Changing your password now invalidates the previous desktop credential
  • Malformed fields return a useful error instead of an internal server error
  • Project file storage now scales by plan and cannot grow without a limit
  • The global cost brake now protects admin activity as well as normal accounts
  • A larger automated release gate stress tests concurrent writes, account boundaries, OAuth connectors, device sync, storage quotas, and usage reservations before any installer ships
  • Verification and welcome email templates explain the beta stage and give you a direct feedback address
  • Failed verification sends no longer strand a new account on an unusable code screen
  • Hosting blueprint now includes the public app URL, beta stage, sender identity, support reply address, persistent storage, and a readiness health check
Major Release
v1.2.43
June 12, 2026
  • Desktop one time sign in (Mac & Windows), the rebrand now reaches the app's internal id the OS uses to key sessions and permissions, first launch signs you out once and asks again for microphone and automation, your files, classes, logins, and study history are untouched
  • Your account locked down tighter, changing or resetting your password ends every other session, the device you're on stays signed in, every other device is signed out on its next action
  • Steady under load, a burst of long AI responses can no longer occupy every server thread, the app keeps answering everyone else at peak
  • Connected means connected, an abandoned or timed out connector sign in no longer shows a misleading Connected badge, the badge now reflects a real connect or sync
  • Smoother over long sessions, closed a slow memory creep on the hosted service and tightened cost tracking so concurrent activity is always counted correctly
  • Erase account reliably starts you fresh, the first run walkthrough replays even if you just close the window after erasing, no need for Quit and Reopen
  • Discover redesigned, every card now shows the thing itself, a live countdown on the exam simulator, a mini quiz with the right answer ticking, a flashcard stack, a pomodoro bar, your week at a glance, 30 cards with subtle hover animation
  • One visual language across Discover, every card icon is now a clean neon line icon, the mixed emoji tiles are gone
  • Custom skills and your learned Voice now apply to AI Tutor walkthroughs too, they used to apply only in normal chat so tutor explanations ignored how you like things explained
  • The class page check button is a real toggle, unchecking an assignment works now, and completing one copy of an assignment with the same name never touches its sibling
  • Attachments stay sensible, only images, PDFs, and text files go through, dropping a zip or binary no longer quietly sends the model a wall of garbled characters
  • Clearer class names, naming a new class something that clashes with one you already have now explains it in plain language instead of a cryptic error
  • Drag and drop highlight no longer gets stuck, and a stumble while the app is starting up is reported honestly rather than as a false you may be offline
  • Carried over from in flight 1.2.43 work: study skill lifecycle fixes, key addressed assignment complete/delete, billing webhook edge cases, and input hardening across skills
Beta Release
v1.2.42
June 11, 2026
  • Real connectors for Notion, Slack, Todoist, Linear, Trello, Asana, and ClickUp, paste an API token (the connect window shows exactly where to grab it) and Aluma pulls in your pages, channels, and tasks, your task apps sync straight onto your Assignments page
  • Connectors work in the browser AND the desktop app, the web app now shows the full catalog, tools that need your real browser session (school portals, Google) point you to the desktop download, everything else connects right where you are
  • Active recall built in, dump everything you remember on a topic, then check yourself against the key points so the gaps become your review list
  • Guided hints on hard problems, peel hints one at a time, the answer only unlocks after you have worked through them
  • Study pack in one tap, turn any assignment into a flashcard deck + practice quiz + study plan
  • Timed exam simulator, sealed mock tests with a real countdown, exam conditions, a report card, and a study what I missed plan after
  • Aluma learns your weak spots, every quiz miss is remembered down to the wrong answer you picked, and woven into targeted review
  • Catch me up, fallen behind? One tap triages your whole overdue pile: what matters, what to drop, and the first 15 minute step
  • New study guides in Discover (Feynman teach back, spaced review, interleaving, and more), and the tutor itself now teaches with retrieval practice and spacing, it still never does the work for you
  • Long conversations stay snappy, smarter context handling keeps the thread without the bloat
  • Big image attachments handled smarter before they ever slow you down
  • Crash durable saves, your tasks, logins, and study history survive even a power loss
  • Overdue work cannot hide, a Missing assignment never collapses into an upcoming assignment with the same name, and assignments with the same name in different classes no longer collide
Beta Release
v1.2.41
June 11, 2026
  • J@rv1s is now Aluma, new name, same mission, your data, plan, and login carry over with nothing to do
  • Three new models: Hermes 1.2 (fast), Athena 2.1 (deep step by step reasoning), and Zeus 3.2 (the flagship). Mini J@r, Jarvix, and J@rv1s 1.0 have been scrapped

  • Live completion bars on big tasks and batches (plus an overall bar for multitask runs) instead of a silent spinner
  • Discover is now fully playable, 18 live demos (up from 9), every card opens a real working widget: solve quadratics step by step, watch exponential growth draw itself, run a Pomodoro, build a two week paper plan, draft a teacher email, triage a cram session, and more
  • Diagrams render cleanly (no more literal "\n" labels or font flashes), study widgets got back buttons, and flashcards stopped collapsing mid flip
  • Math answers come out clean and readable, no raw markup
  • ~30 more fixes from our hardening sweep: Gmail/Drive connectors no longer flood your Assignments list, school sign in tokens use timing safe checks, the app survives a locked down disk on first launch, slash command widgets work from class pages, and more honest errors throughout
