Support regeneration of activities
Do we want to regenerate the title/focus? And/or regenerate the actual pages within it? If so, how we you want to steer it towards what we’re actually looking for? From a user conversation
Community or custom 'library items/approaches to Next/Strengthen/Go further'
Right now, we have a library (that we’re working on in @Science of Learning Library Discussion Thread (2026) , but I feel like it could be exciting and important to also allow users to contribute approaches that can be used. This way, we’re building up the library together, and finding approaches that are helpful for our learning. We might even want to be able to filter by what domains they’re good for (since some approaches in languages might be different than creative, than technical, etc).

Customize learning routine
Right now, we include Next (learn new content), Strengthen (retain or deepen content you've learned before), and Go further (make use of your learning in the world or integrate your learnings), as an initial learning routine that could be helpful for learning new things. But I’m sure what you want to do in a day, and how you want to do it, will be different between people. I’d love to hear if you’d like to customize and how.
Science of Learning Library Discussion Thread (2026)
Do you have feedback on the current library of approaches, or approach to sequencing and scaffolding in Thinkering? Ideas for approaches/strategies that could be useful and incorporated? Other ideas for how to structure and ground the learning experience? Specific ideas for certain learning domains? Really interested to continue discussing this as we continue to develop thinkering.

Share a resource from external apps to be used within thinkering
“Share to thinkering” option on mobile to add resources to a particular interest. Then, we can use them within activities, making resources active and actionable rather than something we just collect passively. Also considering directly including a feature where, from an article or video, we can directly generate an activity for you. For example, if you’ve already read or watched it, and want to engage with it actively. Not sure if we should integrate this kind of resource-initiated activity with your Path and link it with a specific goal (or add a goal if there isn’t one?) or to just include it in your History.
Learning Interests and Learning Science Thread (Sep 26)
What are you hoping to learn? How does the proposed approach feel to you? Do you have suggestions for specific approaches or learning strategies that would make more sense for your needs? Learning scientists and designers, feel free to chime in!
User Flow and Confusion Thread (Sep 26)
As a very new app, we’re still nailing down what feels like a smooth and good daily learning experience, goal management experience, etc. If useful, some potential prompts: What is confusing? How clear is: Creating a new interest? How clear is: Coming (almost) daily to the app to learn / how to use it to learn? How clear is: Managing your goals and the Path screen How clear are the app concepts and language? Today tab: Doing activities under “Next”, “Strengthen”, and “Go further” Path tab: Goals having status of “Introduced”, “Strengthened”, and “Gone further” Interests: Interests can be “In focus” (always shows in the toolbar for more consistent learning) or “Exploring” (combined with other interests for more casual learning) Is anything missing or improvements you’d like to see?
Path and Goals Relevance and Quality Thread (Sep 26)
I’d love to hear more about your experience with goal generation and Paths. If useful, some potential prompts: Are these goals relevant to you? Do you want to complete them? What do you think of the “size” of a goal? Is it too big or too small? Did they influence how you thought about learning [your interest]? How does their sequence feel? Does it make sense, or do things feel out of order, have gaps, etc? What is missing? Are there ways you want to manage or modify your goals that doesn’t exist yet?
Activity Usefulness and Accuracy Thread (Sep 26)
We’re still making major changes to what and how we generate, to try to make them directly useful to your goals, backed by learning science, interactive, and factually accurate, so your feedback is really helpful! If useful, some potential prompts: How relevant are the activities to your goals? Do you feel like you learned something from an activity? Do they seem accurate? How do you like the level of interactivity? How do you feel about the language/tone? What else would you want to see?
