What's New in TheWhy

1.3.1

September 3, 2026

The app can look how you want now. > > Eight color schemes, dark and light: the original Ember, plus Nord, Gruvbox, Everforest, Mocha, Parchment, Latte, and Dawn. Pick one in Settings and the whole app follows. Pro members can go further and set their own accent color, the color behind their own words in a debate, and the color of their opponent's, with a live preview while they choose. Every combination is contrast-checked before it's allowed, so a theme can look how you like without becoming hard to read. > > You get the last word. > > Real conversations are won or lost in how you close them, so a debate no longer ends with the other side talking. When your turns run out you're given one final turn — your closing argument — and the AI does not answer it. Say the thing you want them to walk away with. > > Every debrief now ends with what to do next. > > Not just what you missed, but the specific terms, doctrines, and distinctions to go learn first, with one line on why each one matters, tied to something you actually said. Your placement result does the same. > > We also changed how those results are written. They lead with what you already knew. They credit an honest "I don't know" as the right instinct rather than a miss, because a confident wrong answer is worse than an admitted gap and knowing the difference is most of what this training is for. And a gap is named as the next thing to learn, not as something wrong with you. Honest, not harsh. > > Choose the name your class sees. > > Set a display name in Settings, and that is what appears on the class roster, in the feed, in messages, and on anything you share. Your email address is never shown to anyone. > > Polls in the class feed. > > Ask your class a question with a few answers to choose from. Results appear the moment you vote, and a leader can close a poll once it has run its course. > > Anything your leader assigns is unlocked. > > If you are in a class, the work your leader sets is yours to do — no subscription prompt in the middle of an assignment. Being in the class is the access. > > Asking a question is now the first thing on the Foundation tab. It used to be three taps down inside Training, which is the wrong place for the thing most people arrive with. > > You can also pause a debate without ending it. It sits with the leave option now, and it keeps your turns and your place for when you come back. > > Fixed: the AI could occasionally mention its own turn number mid-debate. It can't anymore. > > Keep contending.

User reviews

An essential app for every believer

Love this app! It’s fun to try the different debates and to see if I can hold my own against the different personas.

It challenged me to look more into why I believe what I’d always believed. Definitely worth a pickup.
