How can we help?
Plain instructions for using Bridge Unlocked, step by step. For learning bridge itself, the courses are the place.
Nothing matches those words. Try fewer words, or contact us and a person will help.
Getting started
- Create your free account
From the welcome screen to a saved account, step by step: your email, a sign-in link or password or Google, and no card details at any point.
- Try the first lesson without an account
How the free sample lesson works with no account and no card, what happens to your progress, and how to save it with your email at the end.
- Choose your bidding system when you join
The chooser step when you join: ACOL or Strong No-Trump with 5-card majors, the 30-second comparison, and why changing later is safe.
- Find your way around the app
The home screen, the five tabs, the desktop sidebar and where everything lives, so you always know where you are and how to get back.
Account and signing in
- Sign in with an email link
Requesting a sign-in link, what the email looks like, what to tap when it arrives, and what to do if it seems slow to appear.
- Set or change your password
Adding an optional password when you join or later, changing it in your account, and signing in with it instead of the email link.
- Sign in with Google
The one-click Google route: how it works, which email address it uses, and how it connects to the record you already have.
- Change your name or email address
Where your account details live, what you can change yourself, and how we help you move your account to a new email address.
- Download your data or delete your account
The self-serve export that puts everything we hold about you in one file, and the permanent two-step delete, plainly explained.
- Choose your emails and report a problem
The email preferences page (reminders, weekly summary, product news) and the Report a problem and Give feedback rows in Settings.
Plans and payments
- Upgrade to Plus
Choosing between monthly and annual Plus, paying safely through Stripe, and what happens the moment your upgrade goes through.
- Cancel your subscription
Where the cancel button is, what happens to your access until the period ends, and why your progress always stays saved.
- Find your receipts
Every payment has a receipt in your account page. Where the list lives, what each receipt shows, and how to keep your own copy.
- Ask for a refund
The full refund in the first 14 days of any new subscription, how to ask for it, and how we handle everything after that window.
Lessons and practice
- Work through a course
How topics and lessons build in order, how your progress is recorded as you go, and what the end-of-topic tests are there for.
- Review a lesson without changing your record
Replaying any lesson safely, any time. Your record only ever moves forward, so reviewing never costs you anything you have earned.
- Practise a topic
Starting a practice module, choosing a set of five or ten hands, and turning hints on or off while you build up your confidence.
- Switch your bidding system in Settings
Changing between ACOL and Strong No-Trump with 5-card majors in Settings, and how your progress in each system is kept separately.
- Quizzes, saved items and your bridge record
The quiz and its refresher mode, saving lessons and glossary terms to come back to, and reading your whole record on the stats page.
Daily Deal and play
- Play today's Daily Deal
Finding today's deal on your home screen, the two-minute walkthrough, and how the streak counts your days and forgives the odd miss.
- Catch up on earlier deals in the library
The Daily Deal calendar, the free seven-day window, and how the full library works when you want to go further back in time.
- Play full deals at the table
Starting a full deal, bidding and playing it through, claiming when you are certain, replaying a hand and reading the review after.
Fixing problems
- A sign-in email hasn't arrived
Spam and junk folders, requesting a fresh link, the password alternative, and what to do if the sign-in emails keep going missing.
- The app won't load or looks stuck
Refreshing safely, checking your connection, trying another browser, and how to send us a report if the app still will not load.
- Your progress looks wrong or missing
Checking you are signed in with the right email, how saving and syncing work, and how to get your record back where it belongs.
- Make the text bigger and other comfort settings
Zoom and text size on each kind of device, calmer motion, and the app's sound toggle in Settings, so everything is comfortable.
