Reading articles

Articles are the core of your school's knowledge library. Each one is a focused piece of content written for a specific level. Here is how to read and navigate them.

Open an article

Tap any article card in the Explore tab, on the Home screen, or in search results. The article opens full-screen with its cover image at the top and the body below.

Swipe between articles

When you open an article from within a tag, you enter page-view mode. Swipe left to go to the next article in that tag. Swipe right to go back. This makes it easy to read through a group of related articles without returning to the list each time.

Cover images and video

Articles can have a cover image that appears at the top of the screen. The image uses focal point positioning, so your school leader can control which part of the image stays visible.

Some articles include embedded video. YouTube and Vimeo links play directly inside the article. Uploaded videos also play inline. You do not need to leave the app.

Tap an embedded video to open it full-screen. The player has a back-10 / play-pause / forward-10 cluster, a scrubber along the bottom with current and total times, and a close button up top. Tap once anywhere to toggle the controls — they hide automatically a few seconds after you start playback so the picture is unblocked.

Standalone video and audio items live on the Videos and Audio landings in the Explore tab. They open the same way as articles — tap a card to read the description and play the recording.

Grade levels

Your school may use a grade system to organise content by difficulty or experience level. If an article has a grade level set, you will see a badge near the title (for example, "Grade 3+").

You can only see articles at or below your own grade level. If an article is set to Grade 5 and you are Grade 3, it will not appear in your feed. Your grade is set by your school leader.

Role restrictions

Some articles are visible only to certain roles. For example, a school leader might publish an article for instructors only. If you do not have the required role, the article will not appear in your feed.

Draft articles

Articles marked as drafts are only visible to teachers and school leaders. Students will not see them. If you are a teacher, drafts appear with a "Draft" badge so you can tell them apart from published articles.

View count

At the bottom of each article you will see a view count. This shows how many members have read the article. It updates each time someone opens it.

Save to favourites

Tap the heart icon on any article, term, video, or audio recording to add it to your Library. The Library splits favourites into five buckets — Articles, Terms, Videos, Audio, and Tags — so you can come back to whichever shelf you need without searching.

More like this

At the bottom of each article you may see a More like this rail. These are a handful of other articles and terms that relate to what you are reading, suggested by the same on-device AI that powers search. Tap any card to open it.

The suggestions are built from what the article is about rather than how it is tagged, so related content surfaces even when it lives in a different section. The rail stays empty when no nearby articles clear the relevance bar, so a single tap takes you somewhere useful.
