Scoring & Progress
Points, Levels & Streaks
Where points come from, how the streak multiplier grows everything you log, and what your level and your rank are actually built on.
Points are your record. They set your level, they put you on the rankings, and you can never spend them on anything — which is the whole idea. They only ever go up, and they only ever measure work you actually did.
The app's other currency, Fame, is a completely separate pile that you can spend. It has its own article: Fame & where it comes from.
FameWays to earn points
+1
for every 3 minutes practised
+40
for learning a song
+10
for finishing your daily quests
+100
for clearing a Scale Map box
+100
for a monthly challenge recording
Healthy habits add up to 5 more points per session, and the streak bonus multiplies your practice time and habits on top of that.
- Practice time. Every 3 minutes you log is worth 1 point. Technique, theory, hearing and creativity all pay the same.
- Healthy habits. Tick things like warming up or using a metronome when you log a session; each one is worth a point, up to 5.
- Learning a song. Marking a song as Mastered pays +40, but only once you've logged at least 10 minutes of practice on that song. Mark it early and the status changes without the points. Move it back out of Mastered and the +40 comes back off.
- Daily quests. Finishing all three of a day's tasks pays +10 points, once you claim it.
- Scale Map. Clearing a full box on the scale tree pays a one-time 100 points.
- Monthly challenges. Every accepted recording on the current month's board pays 100 points, so a full board of five is 500. Recordings filed against a closed month don't pay.
1 pointThe streak multiplier
Practise on consecutive days and every session that day is worth more. The bonus applies to your practice time and your habit points, and it's the closest thing the app has to a cheat code.
Miss a day and it goes back to zero. A 10-minute session is enough to keep it.
Showing up for ten minutes on a busy day beats a three-hour Sunday. The streak rewards frequency, not heroics.
A worked example
Thirty minutes of practice on the fifth day of a streak:

What points get you
- Levels
- Your total points set your level, and each level takes a little more than the last
- Seasons
- Every point also lands in the current month's season, a scoreboard that starts fresh on the 1st
- Rankings
- The all-time board ranks everyone by total points and sessions. The gear board is the exception — it ignores points entirely
Questions people ask
Do longer sessions pay a bonus?
No, the rate is flat at 1 point per 3 minutes. The multiplier comes from the streak, not from session length
Can I lose points?
Only by undoing something you were paid for, like moving a song back out of Mastered. Points are never taken away for inactivity
Why didn't my rank move?
Ranking positions are refreshed periodically rather than instantly, so a big session can take a little while to show up
Does it matter which category I practise?
Not for points. Time is time, whichever of the four it lands in
Can I spend points on anything?
No, and nothing in the app will ever ask you to. Spending is what Fame is for
