How do achievements work?

Achievements are milestone badges that unlock automatically when you meet a specific condition. For example: playing your first quiz, completing 10 quizzes in the Geography category, or maintaining a 7-day streak. When an achievement unlocks, you receive an in-app notification and a bonus XP reward is added to your account.

How do I access my achievements?

Log in and visit your Dashboard, then click the Achievements tab. You can see every badge you have earned and your current progress toward achievements you have not yet unlocked. The full list of all available achievements is also on the Achievements page.

Why won't my achievement unlock?

Achievements unlock automatically, but there can be a short delay of a few seconds. If a badge has not appeared after a minute, try refreshing your Dashboard. If you believe you have met the criteria and the badge still has not unlocked after a few minutes, contact [email protected] with your username and which achievement you expect to have earned.

What does it mean when an achievement is locked?

A locked achievement is one you have not yet earned. Your Dashboard shows the condition required to unlock it and your current progress. Some achievements display their requirements openly - for example, "Play 50 quizzes in the Music category". Others are hidden until you get close to earning them, adding a surprise element.

Can other players see my achievements?

Yes. Your earned achievement badges are displayed on your public profile page. Other players can see which badges you have collected, which shows your experience level and areas of expertise across different quiz categories. Your achievements also contribute to your position on the global leaderboards.

How do achievements relate to XP?

Every time an achievement badge unlocks, a bonus XP amount is credited to your account on top of the XP you already earned playing quizzes. The bigger the milestone, the larger the XP bonus. This means that dedicated players who actively pursue achievements will level up significantly faster than players who only earn XP through regular quiz play. See the XP and Points guide for how XP and levels work.

Tip: The fastest way to rack up achievements early is to play across multiple categories and build a daily streak. Browse all categories and aim to complete at least one quiz in each - the Explorer achievement rewards category variety specifically.
