September 21, 2026 v3.7.13
Patches and accuracy improvements
September 13, 2026 v3.7.12 FIXED
Info Tab Version Number Fixed
  • The Info tab inside the extension was stuck showing an old build number (v2.8.0) no matter which version you actually had installed. It now always matches your real installed version.
  • No other changes in this release.
September 4, 2026 v3.7.11 FIXED
Reactivation After Updating Fixed
  • Updating the extension no longer makes your key report KEY ALREADY IN USE. Reinstalling on the same computer is recognised as you and reactivates on its own.
  • The same fix covers a Chrome update, a graphics driver update, or plugging in a second monitor, any of which used to be enough to require a manual key reset.
  • One key still only runs on one computer. Nothing about what you are allowed to install has changed.
August 30, 2026 v3.7.10 FIXED
ALEKS Equation Solving Fixed
  • Fixed ALEKS equation answers being garbled when the solution has more than one value. 2au2075 = -250au00b2 now correctly gives 0, -5 instead of a jumble of digits.
  • Solution sets with several values now fill each answer box correctly, and a single box gets the whole set rather than half of it.
  • Comprehensive test suite added covering every known edge case, so these answer formats stay fixed.
August 30, 2026 v3.7.9 IMPROVED
MindTap and Stability Improvements
  • MindTap dropdown questions now show a clear message telling you to use Snap AI, instead of guessing at an option and getting it wrong.
  • Mixed questions still get the parts we can do: where a question has both blanks and dropdowns, the blanks are filled automatically and only the dropdown is left to you.
  • General stability improvements.
August 30, 2026 v3.7.8 FIXED
ALEKS Unit Handling Improvement
  • ALEKS no longer double-enters units. When the answer box already prints the unit beside it, HWSolved types just the number - "30" into a box that already shows %, rather than "30%".
  • Improved context detection for percent, degrees and measurement units (meters, kg, lbs, ft, cm). The unit is only dropped when the page actually shows it next to that box, so an answer that genuinely needs its unit still keeps it.
August 30, 2026 v3.7.7 IMPROVED FIXED
AI Accuracy and Platform Improvements
  • ALEKS keeps your whole answer. Thirteen cases where part of an answer was being dropped are fixed - scientific notation, mixed numbers, intervals, ratios, coordinates and units now all come through complete.
  • New ALEKS Auto Check Answer toggle (Pro). Off by default: HWSolved fills the boxes and leaves the Check Answer click to you. Turn it on and it submits for you.
  • Improved ALEKS maths prompting, so answers come back in the exact form ALEKS is asking for.
  • Cengage MindTap questions are detected again. The activity frame had moved, so nothing was being picked up on affected courses.
  • MindTap graph and drawing questions now tell you to use Snap AI instead of sitting silent, since those need to be drawn by hand.
  • Better MindTap question reading - video player controls and dialog text no longer get mistaken for part of the question.
  • Stream Proof covers every solve button and Snap AI, so nothing from HWSolved appears in a shared Discord or Zoom tab.
August 29, 2026 v3.7.6 IMPROVED FIXED
AI Accuracy Improvements
  • ALEKS algebra now solves correctly. Questions whose answer is an expression - factoring, simplifying, solving for a variable - are filled in as the full expression instead of being cut down to a single number.
  • ALEKS answer checking is more reliable. A typed answer is no longer misread as a mismatch because of the way ALEKS renders a minus sign.
  • New ALEKS Auto Check Answer toggle (Pro). Off by default: HWSolved fills the boxes and leaves the Check Answer click to you. Turn it on and it submits for you.
  • Cengage MindTap dropdown questions are now supported, including questions with several dropdowns in one item.
  • Better answer matching and clearer messages on MindTap when a question cannot be read as text.
  • Stream Proof now covers every solve button and Snap AI, so nothing from HWSolved appears in a shared Discord or Zoom tab.
  • Updated the support server link across the extension.
August 22, 2026 v3.7.4 IMPROVED
Security Improvements
  • Enhanced hardware-based device verification. Your license key now recognises your own computer, so it keeps working after an extension update, a reinstall, or a fresh Chrome profile.
  • Far fewer manual key resets. Once you are on v3.7.4 your key re-activates itself on the device you already use it on.
  • Keys remain limited to one device. Verification is what tells your own reinstall apart from a second computer.
August 22, 2026 v3.7.3 IMPROVED
Security Hardening
  • Strengthened protection on the extension build.
  • No changes to platform support or solving behaviour - everything from v3.7.2 works exactly as before.
