quick polls land on the dashboard. admins and pass tutors can ask the group a question, everyone votes, and the counts move live.
โจ
๐ณ๏ธ ask the group
new
open a poll for everyone or for just your class, with a single answer or several. pick how long it runs, from one day up to two weeks, and close it early whenever you like.
โจ
๐ live results
new
counts move as votes land. you can change or take back your vote until the poll closes, and the person who opened the poll (and admins) can see who voted for what.

v2.13.0: marshmallows for the campfire ๐ก
posts can now carry little topic tags called marshmallows. add up to three when you write, then filter the whole fire down to just the topics you care about.
โจ
๐ก tag your posts with marshmallows
new
pick up to three topics while you write a post. suggestions surface tags that already exist, so spellings stay tidy and topics converge instead of splintering.
โจ
๐ filter the fire by topic
new
a row of chips above the feed shows the most used marshmallows. tap one or several to see just those posts, and the link you share keeps the filter.
๐ฑ
๐งน marshmallow tidying for staff
improvement
leaders can rename, merge, or remove tags from the admin page, so typos and duplicates never linger.

v2.12.0: pull up a log at the fireside ๐ฅ
the campfire has a chat now. you speak as yourself, everyone sees who is talking, and the whole conversation fades away after two days.
โจ
๐ฅ the fireside, a chat for everyone
new
a live chat panel sits beside the campfire threads. your name is on every message you send, so this is not the place for anonymous things. only the last 200 messages stay, and nothing lives past 48 hours. you can remove your own message at any time.
๐ฑ
๐ see who is typing, see who is around
improvement
a quiet line shows when someone is writing, and a small count shows how many are at the fire right now. both fade the moment people wander off.
๐ฑ
๐งญ a short tour of the campfire
improvement
first time at the campfire, a few gentle pointers explain masks, signed posts, and the new fireside. reopen it any time from the ? button in the header.

v2.11.0: a few small delights
a shooting star you can catch, footprints and sleepy avatars in rooms, tilted photos, taped notes, and a greeting that knows the hour.
โจ
๐ catch a shooting star
new
every so often a star streaks across the night sky. it lands on its own, roughly one evening in six, and your account page keeps a lifetime count. nobody else can see your count.
โจ
๐ฃ footprints, and avatars that doze off
new
walking around a room now leaves soft footprints that fade behind you. stand perfectly still for three minutes and your character starts snoozing.
๐ฑ
๐ท photos sit crooked, notes get tape
improvement
campfire photos now hang at a slight angle like polaroids, and every board note wears a strip of washi tape. same tilt, same tape, every time you look.
๐ฑ
๐ a greeting that knows the hour
improvement
the dashboard says good morning, good afternoon, or good evening, on singapore time. after eleven at night it just says up late.
20 Aug 2026
v2.10.0: photos in replies
a reply can carry a photo now, not just a post. same review, same shared photo budget, same masks.
โจ
๐ธ replies can carry a photo
new
the photo button in the reply box works now. pick an image, send the reply, and the photo lands on it a moment later. one photo per reply.
๐ฑ
๐ reply photos get the same check
improvement
a reply photo goes through the same review as a post photo. while it waits, only you and a teacher can see it. your mask stays on either way.
๐ฑ
๐งบ posts and replies share one photo budget
improvement
the campfire keeps a single photo allowance for the whole surface, so a reply photo counts exactly like a post photo. three photos can be on their way at once, across both.
๐ง
๐งน reply photos leave when their reply does
fix
deleting a post now clears the photos on its replies too, and erasing your account takes your reply photos with it.
19 Aug 2026
v2.9.0: a hundred small edges, sanded
pages now show their shape while they load, the app stops marking things read behind your back, and every button says what it did.
๐ฑ
โณ pages show their shape while they load
improvement
every page draws a soft placeholder of itself instead of a blank screen, so you can see what is coming. if your device asks for reduced motion the placeholder holds still.
๐ง
๐ background tabs stop marking things read
fix
the campfire, the board and resources only clear their unread badge while the tab is actually in front of you. leave one open behind your notes and the badge waits for you.
๐ง
๐ธ photos hold their place at the fire
fix
campfire photos reserve their box before they arrive, so the feed no longer jumps while you are reading. timestamps tick over on their own now, and a failed load older tells you instead of going quiet.
๐ง
๐ the board survives a reconnect
fix
when the board reconnects it merges by note, so a note you just pinned and a delete you have not undone yet both stay put. the day you are looking at scrolls itself back into view.
๐ฑ
๐๏ธ show your password, and clearer sign in errors
improvement
login and reset password both got a show password toggle. reset password names the account it is for and waits a minute before sending another email. sign in now says when it is a rate limit or an unconfirmed email instead of blaming your password.
๐ฑ
๐ your account page keeps up
improvement
a nickname saves on enter and tells you when there is something unsaved. photo uploads show real progress instead of a spinner that means nothing.
๐ฑ
๐ ๏ธ admin says what it did
improvement
every admin action confirms itself now, and a revoke that does not land says so instead of looking done. dismissing a report is one click, the unmask log refreshes as reveals happen, and invites split active from spent with a copy every link button.
13 Aug 2026
v2.8.0: chat up front, faces at the fire
room chat moved where you can actually reach it, signed campfire posts show real faces, and replying is finally a button.
โจ
๐จ๏ธ the room chat moved up
new
on phones the chat now sits right under the floor instead of the bottom of the page. on desktop the people list folds into a little count so the chat gets the space. swiping past the chat no longer gets stuck.
โจ
๐ธ faces at the fire (only if you sign)
new
sign a campfire post and your profile photo shows up next to your name. masks stay masks: anonymous posts never show a photo, and posts from before today stay photo-free.
โจ
๐ฌ replying is a button now
new
every post has a reply button that opens the thread and puts the cursor in the box. the top this week crown retired (posts stay where they are), and the fire keeps one head count instead of two.
๐ฑ
โจ hover, gentler
improvement
cards ease up softly again, a touch quicker than before. if your device asks for reduced motion they now hold still instead of jumping.
13 Aug 2026
v2.7.1: pick suna's brain ๐ง
admins can now pick which model suna thinks with, straight from the admin page.
โจ
๐ง a model switch for suna
new
the setting lives in admin now. save a model id and suna picks it up on her next answer. leave it blank and she falls back to the server's default model.
13 Aug 2026
v2.7.0: the rooms learned to talk ๐ฌ
study rooms get a real chat with history, little speech bubbles over your sprite, and a sleepy study buddy named suna who answers when you type @bot.
โจ
๐ฌ a chat panel for every room
new
a chat panel lives in the room rail now. the last 200 messages stick around, your words pop up over your head, and typing never walks your sprite.
โจ
๐ say @bot and suna wakes up
new
type @bot and a question, and suna ๐ wakes up to help with studying. everyone gets 20 asks a day. asking sends the last few room messages along so she can read the room.
โจ
๐ฉ room messages can be reported too
new
room messages can be reported like anything else, and staff can remove one. removed messages show a quiet "message removed" line.
๐ฑ
๐ธ more room for the daily ai budget
improvement
the daily ai budget got room to breathe so suna and image checks share it comfortably.
13 Aug 2026
v2.6.0: reports find you now ๐ฉ
admins no longer live in the admin page to catch reports. the campfire itself taps you on the shoulder.
โจ
๐ฉ A reports panel in the review rail
new
staff on the campfire get a reports panel right in the review rail: open reports with a count badge, resolve in place, and a reveal button when safety needs it.
โจ
๐ One click to the reported post
new
click a report and the campfire walks you to the post with a little pulse. if it is further down than what is loaded, the card says so instead of pretending.
๐ฑ
๐ A soft toast when reports land
improvement
a quiet toast pops when a new report lands while you are on the page. it never carries the report itself. it just rings the doorbell.
13 Aug 2026
v2.5.0: you wear a mask here ๐ญ
campfire anonymity grew up. every thread gives you a fresh mask name, signing is a choice, and admin reveals are always logged.
โจ
๐ฆ meet your thread mask
new
anon posts now wear a per-thread mask (like ๐ฆ moss fox) instead of your old handle. same mask inside one thread so people can follow the conversation, a fresh one in the next, and nothing links across threads.
โจ
โ๏ธ sign your name if you want
new
want your name on a post or a reply? tap the mask chip before sending and it goes out as "nickname (real name)". replies can be signed too, handy for tutors marking a best answer.
โจ
๐ก๏ธ every reveal gets logged
new
admins can reveal who wrote something when safety needs it, and every reveal is written to a log all admins can see. no quiet peeking, by design.
๐ฑ
๐๏ธ old posts, freshly masked
improvement
every old campfire post was re-masked under the new rules, and posts signed with an old alias stay exactly as they were signed.
12 Aug 2026
v2.4.0: your class, your shelf ๐๏ธ
The board and the shelf now belong to your class. Campfire and rooms stay open to everyone.
โจ
๐ Classes get their own board and shelf
new
The daily board and the resource shelf are now per class: you see your class's notes and files, and admins can hop between classes or view all at once.
โจ
๐ Meet the class switcher
new
In more than one class? A little switcher in the top bar picks which class you are looking at, and remembers your home class.
โจ
๐ค Pass tutors can now stock the shelf
new
Pass tutors can now upload and manage their own class's shelf. This was admin-only before.
๐ฑ
๐๏ธ Admins get class controls
improvement
Admins can create and rename classes, and move people between them from the roster. Invites already knew their class, and now everything else does too.
12 Aug 2026
v2.3.0: hello, real you ๐
PassBoard now knows your real name, your nickname is yours to change whenever, and your face can be a kawaii buddy or your own photo.
โจ
๐ชช Real names, meet PassBoard
new
At signup, and at your next login if you already have an account, PassBoard asks for your real name so tutors always know who they are helping. It locks once you save it, but admins can fix a typo for you.
โจ
๐ท๏ธ Your nickname, your call
new
Your old handle became your starting nickname. Change it anytime from your account page, and classmates will see you as "nickname (real name)".
โจ
๐งธ Pick your study buddy
new
Choose one of the eight study buddies, or upload your own photo. PNG, JPG and WebP all work, up to 2 MB, and your new look goes live right away.
๐ฑ
๐ A roster that knows faces
improvement
The admin roster now shows real names, nicknames and faces side by side. Gentle controls let admins fix a name or revert a photo, and every action is logged for the other admins to see.
11 Aug 2026
v2.2.0: a little tidy-up ๐งน
A little tidy-up release: storage files can now carry a short description, the reply notification finally takes you to the post it's about, cards hover a touch calmer, and we combed through the whole app's punctuation. Small stuff, but it adds up.
โจ
๐ Describe your resources
new
Storage resources can now carry a short description under the title, so classmates know what a file is before they open it.
๐ฑ
๐ Replies that take you there
improvement
The campfire "your posts got replies" note now walks you to each replied post when you click it. Look for the little pulse, and dismiss it whenever you're done.
๐ฑ
๐ซง A softer hover
improvement
Cards now lift with a slower, softer hover, so the app feels calmer under your pointer.
๐ฑ
โ๏ธ A punctuation pass
improvement
A punctuation pass across every page and the whole changelog: shorter sentences, fewer dashes, same facts. Even this changelog used to lean on dashes a little too hard.
9 Aug 2026
v2.1.0: The Great Repaint ๐
PassBoard has a new coat of paint: pastel colours on a night sky, soft shadows, rounded everything, and a friendlier face. Same campfire, same board, same rooms: nothing moved, everything glows a little warmer. Studying together at night just looks like it now.
โจ
๐ Dusk Study, everywhere
new
Every surface (campfire, board, storage, rooms, and the rest) now lives under the same night sky: pastel sticky notes, a gentle star field, and a calmer, cozier reading feel. Dark is the app's home mood; light mode is still one tap away.
โจ
๐จ Pick your accent
new
Lavender, sakura, sky, or matcha: choose your accent colour on the account page and the whole app follows. Your choice sticks between visits.
โจ
๐ฅ Meet Ember
new
PassBoard has a mascot: Ember, a small chubby flame who greets you at the door, keeps empty pages company, and lives in your browser tab. Be nice to them.
๐ฑ
โจ Little delights
improvement
Buttons press down, reactions pop, stars twinkle. All motion respects your reduced-motion setting.
8 Aug 2026
v2.0.0: PassBoard, rebuilt ๐ฅ
A ground-up rebuild: the same campfire, calmer and faster. Ask anything anonymously to your classmates (leaders can still see who's asking, for safety), see what the cohort learned each day, share notes, and sit down to focus together. A few old experiments (memes, DM chat, and combat rooms) didn't make the trip; they're dated honestly in the archive below. Thanks for being here from the start.
โจ
๐ฅ Campfire
new
Ask anything, anonymously to classmates. A daily prompt, reactions, and replies: the fire that started it all, rebuilt from scratch.
โจ
๐ What Did We Learn?
new
A shared board of what clicked and what's still fuzzy, stamped by the day so a week of learning reads back in order.
โจ
๐ฆ Storage
new
Your cohort's slides, links, and code snippets on one searchable shelf, curated by your leaders.
โจ
๐ช Rooms
new
Sit and focus together: a live pomodoro, a little pixel floor, and who-else-is-here presence.
