A running record of the latest improvements to WhatsTheDx.

July 11, 2026

Accessibility controls and Spanish support

Accessibility

WhatsTheDx is now easier to personalize and available in Spanish across the core experience.

What's new

  • A new accessibility menu brings larger text, higher contrast, reduced motion, a more readable font, and light, dark, or system themes together in one place.
  • Preferences are available from desktop and mobile navigation, use accessible controls, and stay saved on your device.
  • Switch between English and Spanish at any time. Your choice persists, while first-time visits can follow your browser language.
  • Navigation, gameplay, archives, leaderboards, accounts, Pro, Dx Party, and policy pages are translated, with Spanish clinical clues, diagnoses, and explanations shown when available.

Dx Party beta is here

Dx Party

Bring your study crew together for a private multiplayer card game built around wildly fictional clinical prompts.

What's new

  • Host a table, choose a deck, and share the six-character room code with up to seven friends. Guests can join with only a display name.
  • Each round, the reader reveals a prompt, players submit diagnosis cards anonymously, and the reader awards the point before the role rotates.
  • Signed-in players can host one free table per UTC day. Pro unlocks unlimited hosting and specialty decks.

Specialty leaderboards are live

Leaderboards

Every specialty now has its own leaderboard, so you can see exactly how your play stacks up against everyone else in your field.

What's new

  • Boards are ranked by points — solve the daily case in fewer guesses to score higher, with Hard solves worth up to 60 and Easy solves 5.
  • Switch any board between Today, This week, and All-time to see the current leaders or the all-time greats.
  • Set a public display name to appear by name, or stay Anonymous — either way your rank still counts, and Pro members get a badge.
  • You’ll always see your own standing, even when you land outside the top 10.

Pin your default specialty

Accounts

Signed-in users can choose a home specialty so the app opens right to the field you care about.

What's new

  • Set any specialty as your default from the game, archive, or leaderboards.
  • Your dashboard, archive, and leaderboards lead with your default instead of a generic pick.
  • Change or clear it anytime — it’s a one-tap toggle.

July 8, 2026

More control over your Pro membership

Pro

Pro members get early access to unpublished cases, a way to practice past cases, and a simpler way to manage billing.

What's new

  • Play unpublished cases before their public release so you can practice ahead of the daily schedule.
  • Replay any case you’ve already finished for extra practice — your points, streak, and history stay exactly as they were the first time.
  • Manage your subscription in a couple of taps: update your payment details or cancel anytime from your account or the Pro page.
  • Secure checkout and billing are handled by Stripe end to end.

July 8, 2026

Archive, dashboard, and difficulty choices

Gameplay

You now have more ways to practice, pick your challenge level, and jump back into cases when signed in.

What's new

  • The new case archive lets you browse past cases by specialty, revisit the latest case, and unlock the full archive with Pro.
  • Signed-in users now land on a personalized dashboard with quick access to their recent play and specialties.
  • Before your first guess, choose Hard mode for free-text diagnosis or switch to Easy mode for all clues and a single multiple-choice answer.

July 7, 2026

A smoother sign-in experience

Accounts

Signing in and managing your account is now faster and more reliable across the whole site.

What's new

  • Stay signed in as you move between the game, your play history, checkout, and your account — no surprise logouts.
  • Sign in or create an account from dedicated pages, or use the quick pop-up right from the menu.
  • When you’re signed in, the menu puts your account and play history one tap away; when you’re signed out, sign-in and sign-up buttons are always clear.

July 7, 2026

Clearer policies and subscription details

We refreshed our policy pages and Pro subscription details so they’re easier to read and understand.

What's new

  • Our Privacy and Terms pages are easier to read, with quick section jumping on your phone.
  • Subscription details now spell out monthly access, lifetime access, how to cancel, and secure payment.
  • Handy footer links keep our policies a tap away without getting in the way of the game.
