For the first update of 2025, new features include a "new folder" button, tag-based content organization, and updated translations, alongside fixes for the Quiz app and backend improvements.

Personalized Tags and Filters​

We improved our categories system by using personalized categories, that we call tags. Those are split into 3 categories: discipline, level and resource type. You can find the tags in Builder (library page) and Library.

If your items already had tags, most of them have been migrated to this new system safely in the discipline category. Don't hesitate to tweak your tags to better fit the available categories!

You can find detailed information about tags here.

Below you can find our usual update breakdown for each platform:
