What's new in 1.2.0 • No more accounts. No email, no password, no "which sign-in did I use again?". Cognithix now lives entirely on your device: set up your family, pick a Parent PIN, done. Your children's progress is stored only on the iPhone or iPad it was earned on. • Forgot your Parent PIN? You now get a recovery code when you set one. Write it down, screenshot it, stick it on the fridge. • Some questions had more than one right answer and we only accepted ours. "Stingy" is a perfectly good opposite of "generous", "doorbell" is a real word, and we apologise to every child who already knew that. Hundreds of questions were rewritten and checked so exactly one answer is right. • A few pattern and mirror puzzles had the wrong answer marked. The mirror in particular had been looking at itself the wrong way round. Fixed, and every picture puzzle is now checked against what is actually drawn. • Number and letter series sometimes showed only the first few terms, then asked what came after the ones you couldn't see. Every term is on screen now. • Pets were losing hearts twice for the same day off whenever the app was reopened. Hearts now fade once per missed day, as nature intended. • Tapping "buy" twice quickly in the pet shop no longer buys two hats for the price of one. Sorry, savvy shoppers. • Daily plans now remember what was practised yesterday, so they mix things up instead of serving vocabulary on repeat. • Grown-up areas (settings, purchases, links) always need the Parent PIN, even straight after reopening the app. • Plus kinder hints, explanations that explain the actual answer ("the series changes by null each time" has been retired), fewer repeated questions, and streaks that survive the clocks changing. Upgrading? Your children, pets and coins come with you. Older records that only ever lived online, like past session history, don't make the trip. Sorry about that.

• Refreshed App Store screenshots and clearer feature descriptions. • The same app, with a clearer introduction to what you can do with it.

• Sign-in stops waiting indefinitely for a profile. We also restore the missing cloud profile database, so logging in can actually lead somewhere. • Practice rounds stop recycling answered questions while fresh ones remain. Reworded instructions no longer pass themselves off as new questions. • Hidden Words gets proper definitions and clearer sound clues. A bridge is a bridge, not a natural feature wearing a disguise. • Parent profile cleanup now has permission to do its job, while other accounts stay locked out.

Cognithix 1.1.4 — less déjà vu, fresher logins: • Fixed a race in practice history that could let recently answered questions sneak back into a later session. Apparently asking twice is not adaptive learning. Our apologies to repetition. • Switching accounts now updates the signed-in profile immediately instead of briefly clinging to the previous login's data. • Raised the minimum supported version to iOS 15 and tidied a few harmless code warnings while we had the toolbox open.

• No shiny new features this time. This is a housekeeping release — brooms, screwdrivers, the works. • Everything under the hood got a once-over so future updates land smoothly. • If you notice absolutely nothing different, that's a ten out of ten from us.

A little polish and behind-the-scenes improvements.

Cognithix 1.1.1 — the pet finally gets a fighting chance: - Bringing your pet back from a faint used to drop it straight back into the danger zone — rescued one second, fainted the next. It now returns with two hearts and a short grace period, giving you time to do a lesson, earn some coins, and heal it properly. - Tidied up the rescue message so the hearts it promises match the hearts you actually get (two, for the record). Everything stays on your device. No accounts, no ads.

Cognithix 1.1.0 — try before you buy, and a tutor that explains itself: - New: a proper 7-day free trial. The whole app, every subject, free for a week. Then one payment unlocks it for up to 5 children — still no subscription, because a subscription for an 11+ app felt a bit cheeky. - Got a question RIGHT? You now get a "Why this works" explanation, not just a gold star. Knowing why is rather the point of reasoning practice. - The usual quiet polish under the hood. Everything stays on your device. No accounts, no ads, no tracking.

A quiet polish-and-fix release, with a small apology: • Fixed a bug where one reasoning puzzle was being unreasonably shy and refusing to show up. We had a word with it. • Smoothed out a few rough edges so screens settle a touch faster — handy for getting in some practice before summer. • General speed tidy-up and the usual under-the-bonnet housekeeping. Same calm, no-subscription 11+ practice. Spot anything odd? Tell us and we will round it up.

Bug fixes, with apologies: • Some hard letter-series questions were literally impossible — there is, it turns out, no letter after Z. Your child was right; we were wrong. • Speed Rush now ends when the questions run out, instead of letting the last one be milked for leaderboard points. • The Combo Blitz multiplier now pays out on the answer that earned it, not the one after. • Coins can no longer be awarded twice when the connection hiccups mid-save. • Anticlockwise rotation questions now get an explanation that also turns anticlockwise.

What's new • Fixed several Verbal Reasoning code questions where the two worked examples contradicted each other, making the "correct" answer impossible to work out. A child reasoning perfectly was marked wrong. Every code table is now solvable. • Fixed a logic puzzle whose answer key was simply wrong (it claimed the child who used the most materials used the fewest). • "Parent mode" on the home screen now asks for the PIN before opening the parent area — previously a tap walked straight into settings and the paywall. • Progress stats no longer double-count a session if it has to be re-synced after losing connection.

Housekeeping update — no new features this time. We tidied up how Cognithix appears in the App Store so the right families searching for 11+ prep can actually find us. Under the hood it's the same complete preparation: English, Verbal Reasoning and Non-Verbal Reasoning, with a fresh personalised practice plan generated every day. Back to the questions.

What's new in 1.0.9 • The "rate the app" prompt fires sooner now — after the second strong session (was: third). Still never on launch, never on error. • Search-listing cleanup: keyword field used to lead with "11+, CEM, GL, grammar school" — all already in the subtitle, which the App Store indexer treats as duplicates. We recovered that space for the actual long-tail intent phrases parents type ("past papers", "mock tests", "year 5 maths", "vocabulary"). • No in-app changes.

What's new in 1.0.8 • Added the missing ITSAppUsesNonExemptEncryption flag to the bundle. Every prior submission needed a manual fix-up at the App Store Connect level — that ends here. • Marked the post-session review prompt as fire-and-forget so the lint stops complaining about discarded futures.

Tightened a few verbal-reasoning corners. Let the non-verbal ones breathe a little. Mock papers polished. Timer remains exactly as merciful as last time.

We taught our links some new tricks — they now point to the right place instead of wandering off like a confused pigeon. No pigeons were harmed in the making of this update. Your child's brain training remains as excellent as ever.

Bug fix highlight: Our Non-Verbal Reasoning exercises were showing kids beautiful little shapes as answer options... instead of, you know, the actual answer codes. Turns out "pick the pretty triangle" wasn't testing pattern recognition so much as "pick the pretty triangle." The shapes now stay where they belong — in the question — and the answers are back to being boring old letters and numbers, as the 11+ gods intended.

Performance improvements.
