Streak Charges help you maintain your streak on Brilliant when you miss a day.
How do Streak Charges work?
Completing a lesson or practice can earn a Streak Charge when you are eligible and have room for another charge. Not every completion earns one, and you can hold a maximum of two Streak Charges at a time.
If you miss a day and have a Streak Charge, it will be automatically applied to preserve your streak. Streak Charges never expire, so once you earn them, they'll be available in your account until used.
Where can I see my Streak Charges?
You can see your available Streak Charges on your Home page in the streaks section (they look like batteries).

Does using a Streak Charge affect my progress?
Using a Streak Charge keeps your streak intact but does not count as a day of activity, so your streak won't be extended—it'll stay where it is when the charge is applied.
🎯 Tip: If you're on iOS, the Brilliant home screen widget shows your streak status and shows practice prompts throughout the day to help you keep it going.
