1.9

FeatureMay 2026

v1.9.0 — Diagram Redaction, World Cup & Premier League

Three additions: diagram images in quiz questions now have their text labels automatically erased before you see them (no peeking at answers), live games now correctly light up for all sports, and you can now follow the FIFA World Cup 2026 and English Premier League.

Diagram text erasure — before a "Label the Diagram" question is shown, Gemini detects all text regions and the app uses Canvas to paint them out; you see the structure but not the labels

Redacting spinner shows while the AI processes the image so the screen never flashes the labeled version

Premier League added — all 20 EPL clubs with ESPN live score and headline support (eng.1 endpoint)

FIFA World Cup 2026 added — all 48 qualifying nations across CONCACAF, CONMEBOL, UEFA, AFC, CAF, and OFC; scores from ESPN's fifa.world feed

Live game status detection improved — now correctly recognizes soccer clock formats ("45'", "90+2'"), half-time, overtime, and period-based statuses

Team live matching improved — fuzzy name matching handles ESPN returning full team names instead of abbreviations for soccer leagues

1.8

FeatureMay 2026

v1.8.0 — Google Docs, Word Docs & Diagram Quiz

Three powerful additions in one update: import directly from Google Docs with a share link, upload Word documents (.docx), and — the big one — when your notes include a photo or diagram, the AI turns labeled parts of the image into a tap-to-place quiz question.

Google Docs import — paste any share link; the server fetches the doc as plain text (no sign-in required, doc must be set to "Anyone with the link can view")

Word document (.docx) import — same import buttons; text extracted server-side with Mammoth

Diagram label quiz — when notes were imported from a photo, the image is stored and passed to the AI; if it detects a diagram, map, chart, or labeled illustration it generates up to 3 "Label the Diagram" questions

Tap-to-place interaction — tap a word in the word bank, then tap a blank to place it; tap a filled blank to return the word

Word bank shows placed words as struck-through so you always know what is left

Correct/incorrect feedback per blank with numbered answer key on wrong submissions

Image compressed client-side (max 800px, JPEG 0.7) before storing — keeps sessionStorage lightweight

Import buttons redesigned with Google Docs toggle that expands an inline URL input field

1.7

FeatureMay 2026

v1.7.0 — Photo & File Import

Import your notes without typing a single word. Snap a photo of handwritten notes or a textbook page, drop in a PDF, or drag a text file — the AI reads it and populates your notes automatically.

Photo / Image import — upload JPG, PNG, HEIC, WebP, or GIF; Gemini Vision reads handwriting, printed text, diagrams, and tables

PDF import — upload any PDF up to 4 MB; Gemini extracts all text preserving headings and paragraphs

Text file import (.txt) — read instantly client-side, no AI call needed

Drag and drop — drop any supported file directly onto the notes card

Import buttons above the textarea with camera and file icons

Animated overlay with spinner while AI is reading the file

Clear error messages for oversized or unreadable files

Dev / Prod split — new features build on scorestudy.vercel.app (dev) and only reach scorestudy.stieberhome.com (prod) on explicit promote

1.6

LatestMay 2026

v1.6.0 — New Logo & Dual Domain

Replaced the placeholder SVG logo with the official ScoreStudy badge and wired up both production domains so every deployment goes live on both URLs automatically.

New official logo — circular badge featuring a scale of justice balancing sports equipment and school books with "SCORESTUDY.STIEBERHOME.COM" arc text

Logo appears in the header, hero section, and browser tab favicon

Both scorestudy.stieberhome.com and scorestudy.vercel.app now auto-assigned as production aliases on every deploy

Deploy script updated — no manual alias step needed going forward

1.5

MajorMay 2026

v1.5.0 — Multi-Team, Smarter Quiz & Immediate Unlock

The biggest feature drop yet — multi-team selection, mixed flashcard orientations, AI-powered wrong-answer explanations, and live scores that show up the moment you pass.

Multiple teams & players — select as many as you want across all sports; selected teams show as dismissable pills with a "Clear all" option

Flashcard orientation mix — each card is randomly assigned term-first or definition-first so you practice recognition in both directions

Wrong answer explanations — when you miss a question the AI explains why the correct answer is right (1–2 sentences)

Immediate score unlock — live scores and headlines appear right on the results page the moment you hit 80%+, not "during your next quiz"

Start Over button added to every page (Study, Flashcards, Quiz, Results) so you can jump back to the home screen any time

Tagline updated to "Score 80% or higher to unlock live sports scores and headlines"

Fix: deploy script now aliases both custom and Vercel domains automatically

1.4

InfrastructureMay 2026

v1.4.0 — Custom Domain

Pointed the production deployment to the custom domain so the site is reachable at the official URL.

scorestudy.stieberhome.com connected as the primary production URL

Vercel project verified — DNS was already configured; alias assigned to live deployment

Header subtitle updated to show scorestudy.stieberhome.com

1.3

FeatureMay 2026

v1.3.0 — Grade-Level AI & Education Controls

Added a full school/grade level picker so the AI calibrates reading level and question complexity to the student — from Kindergarten to Grade 12.

School level picker — Elementary (K–6), Middle School (7–9), High School (10–12)

Grade level picker — specific grade buttons appear after selecting a school level

AI grade calibration — each grade gets tailored instructions (e.g. K gets very simple words; Grade 12 gets college-prep reasoning)

Flashcard and question sliders now go to zero — setting a slider to 0 skips that section entirely

Setting both to 0 is blocked with an error message

Custom SVG logo added — scales of justice in navy and orange with site URL arc text

Browser tab favicon set to the logo

All emojis removed site-wide

1.2

DesignMay 2026

v1.2.0 — Design Refresh — Navy & Orange

Complete visual overhaul to match the logo colors. Switched to a "bright and clean" aesthetic that feels approachable without looking AI-generated.

Navy (#1a3472) and orange (#e84c1e) color palette applied site-wide

Nunito font — rounded, bold, friendly

Dot-grid background texture

Card components with offset-shadow borders for a hand-crafted feel

Press-down button animations

Animated score circle on results page

Confetti burst when you pass 80%

Progress bar on flashcards and quiz pages

Sport color badges — each league gets its own accent color

Smooth flip card animation rewritten to fix broken reveal bug

1.1

FeatureMay 2026

v1.1.0 — Multi-Sport, All Teams & News

Expanded sports coverage to all major leagues, added all teams and golf players to the picker, introduced live game indicators, and added a news/headlines tab alongside scores.

Multi-sport selection — pick NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, MLS, or Golf (or any combination)

All teams & players — complete rosters for all 6 sports (187+ entries)

Live dot indicators — teams with a game in progress glow red in the picker

Sports news tab — ESPN headlines and descriptions shown alongside live scores

Score unlock state machine — locked → unlocked (80%+) → re-locks if you drop below

Fixed "Review Flashcards" label — renamed to "New Quiz, New Questions"

Fixed flashcard flip — completely rewrote the 3D CSS flip to always keep both faces in the DOM

TypeScript fix — Set iteration now uses Array.from() for strict-mode compatibility

Upgraded AI model from gemini-1.5-flash-latest to gemini-2.5-flash
