See what each daily study time gives you
New- New
Compare daily study times before you pick one. more ▾less ▴
When you choose how long to study each day, your Study Plan now shows what that choice gives you before you save it: how many topics are covered, how many questions, how many topics come back for a second round, and how long a typical day runs. If some days would run long, or more time would build the same plan, it says so.

New- New
See how many cards you have seen, and how many are strong. more ▾less ▴
Flashcards now shows your totals: how many cards you have seen, and how many are strong, meaning their next review is three weeks or more away. Each subject and each deck shows the same bar, and the end of a session says how many you have seen in total.
- New
Practice only the cards you keep missing. more ▾less ▴
With full access, a new row on Flashcards gathers the cards you keep missing, so you can practice just those.
- New
Cover answers and search while you read through a deck. more ▾less ▴
Read through can now cover the answers, so you can quiz yourself while you read, and you can search the cards in a deck.

Catching up on your Study Plan feels lighter
New- New
See this week's progress and topics covered per exam section. more ▾less ▴

- New
Finished days get a green check on the calendar. more ▾less ▴

Upgrade your plan or add time, with unused days credited
New- New
Move to a longer plan anytime; your unused days are credited. more ▾less ▴
Already on a plan? You can now move to a longer one from Pricing. The days you haven't used yet are credited toward it at what you paid, and the new plan starts right away. For example, a 1-Month Plan with 15 days left moves to the 1-Year Plan for ₱850 instead of ₱999.
- New
Add more time that starts when your current plan ends. more ▾less ▴
You can also add the same plan again, or a shorter one, at its usual price. The new time starts the day your current plan ends, so you never lose a day.

Partner share links and code end dates
New- New
Partner share links apply the discount at checkout automatically. more ▾less ▴
Partners now get a share link as well as a code. A student who opens the link has the partner's discount applied for them at checkout, so nobody has to type the code.
Use a study remote on your phone or iPad
New- New
Study remotes now work on iPhone and iPad across practice, mocks, flashcards, and cram sheets. more ▾less ▴
Study remotes now work on iPhone and iPad. Many remotes sold for flashcard apps act like a game controller on a phone, which BoardPal could not read before. Now it can, on practice questions, mock boards, flashcards, and cram sheets. Next submits or moves on, flips a card, or turns the page. Back goes to the previous question, brings back the last card, or turns back a page. Four more buttons can pick choices A to D or rate a card. The first time a remote connects, you can set what each button does in about 20 seconds. Your setup is saved on that device.

New- New
Catch up moves only what you missed and leaves the rest of your plan alone. more ▾less ▴
Rebalance now offers Catch up. It moves only the sessions you missed onto your lightest days and leaves the rest of your plan as it is. Respread all, the old Rebalance, is still there beside it.
